Drove into this storm to spend over $600 getting the dogs their annual shots and tags. I brought the kids to “help,” which was pretty dumb. The lights went out just as Jackson was getting his second shot, and no one freaked out. Also, this was the first time he did not need to be…

Today was: Showing up to do blood work without the needed lab orders, workworkwork, the day that Christina ate an entire tub of hummus by herself, an appointment with Dr. Hugo (that was today, even though the office door was locked), shrimp salad rolls that made Christina want to puke, losing at Monopoly, the Yankees…

It’s a long way from the Bronx, but it’s baseball. The stadium was so empty, but the game included an inside the park grand slam (which really wasn’t a grand slam because the only reason he made it around all the bases was because of the outfielder’s error) and our seats were in the shade,…

The girls had haircuts today. Robin hadn’t had one in something like two years, and she cut off around five inches. They both got blowouts and they looked so different with straight hair! They were both so happy with the cuts, and I’m glad. Then I met up with Myrna for lunch. I love Myrna.…

We are more than four and a half hours into Christina’s dance recital dress rehearsal. I made the mistake of skipping lunch (and breakfast), so it has been approximately 26 hours since I last ate. I brought a book, but the house lights are down and I can’t see. I am bored and hungry and…
