Tonight's picture was taken in June of 2004. Mattie was two years old and we took him to Boston to visit Peter's parents. That particular day we went to the Stone Zoo. After the zoo trip, we went through the McDonald's drive thru so Mattie could get French fries and a shake. For the first several years of Mattie's life, I sat in the back seat with him while we were driving. Somehow I felt that my presence was needed back there, and typically I was either playing with Mattie, giving him a snack, or just providing supervision.
Quote of the day: Today's coronavirus update from Johns Hopkins.
- Number of people diagnosed with the virus: 33,553,434
- Number of people who died from the virus: 602,069
Sunny spent the majority of the day at the new house. He feel right at home. You should have seen him greeting the locksmith and the ADT alarm fellow. As if Sunny has always lived here. He has taken to it like a duck to water. Needless to say, Peter and I had a very busy day that entailed no eating. By the time we got back to DC after 6pm, I felt ill. With a migraine to beat the band. Somehow I need a better strategy because we will be having many long weeks ahead with getting the house ready, packing, moving, and living through renovations.
However, my hunch was correct! Not only do the bathrooms need to be gutted because they are not esthetically pleasing, they also are NO longer to code! As for the locksmith, he spent 4 hours with us. He wasn't pleased at all by the locks that were on the doors of the house. They were flimsy and thankfully he worked with us to correct that today.
Home is where the heart is.
