Substitute Post

I wrote a post last night, after a long and difficult day, that Nora and I both decided shouldn't go out into the world just yet.  So instead, here's a picture of a puppy.



























Well, okay, that's not a puppy, that was yesterday at work.

But Nora's received the great news that her banked vacation days allow her to have the entire month of June off!  A little turbocharger for the wedding planning (Take heart, Wanda!  We'll be ready for the 25th for sure.), and a well-deserved conclusion to her job contract. 

I have some time banked away too, so I'll be fully up in Vermont starting on June 11th.  Simon and Ed will be delighted to have two full weeks of watching chipmunks and not having to ride for hours in the $#&^%$^%$!**$%#^$*!! CAR.  Simon and Ed both look just like that picture when we tell them we're going in the car.
