every once in a while, you have the chance to connect with really special people ...
sunday evening we re-connect with old friends - cheryl and andré from montreal - with their delightful children (gabriel, elan, jordanna, jacob). having just flown in from republica dominica, they hightail it over here from jfk - long flight, long vacation, and they make a stop in nyc just to lay eyes on jane! we enjoy a wonderful evening with them - we love our time together as always, and they are fun, uplifting, and crazy! the kids are a dream, funky and personable - a great end to the weekend ... they drive off late at night to an airport hotel near laguardia so they can make their 7am flight (despite my protests and pleas to have them spend the night with us!) ...
speaking of protests, i quarrel with jane not to go to work today, but she'll have no part of it ... i lie in bed until 7am myself, a veritable first for me, and then we are all scrambling to get ready for the day! kids off, jane too, me on an hour-delayed train to penn station ... jane is doing well, a bit of body ache and fatigue, but otherwise good ...
definitely feeling the effects of the 'fog' - the next few months have a specific road map which will not allow much deviation ... so it's one foot in front of the other, and we'll see where we go.
all are tucked in, including jane, and for once i am the last one standing (that's what happens when you sleep in until 7!) ...
