Monday night – Up at 4

Spent last night in Sherborn with my Mom.. Gave, Raya and Bear had an early morning flight. We got there around 7 is… could not believe the amount of snow they had !

it was all the way over my mom’s kitchen windows !

mom had played out a very welcoming spread of cohn favorites.. sushi, homes, lox and cheese.. yum. She’s a great hostess !

 

We had to wake up at 4 to get to the plane.. which we learned was delayed.. also much in fact that the guys were going to miss their connection in Philly.. As it happens.. their flight out was delayed as well.. and they ,made the flight by less than 5 min !>. Yayyyyy !

After dropping them off. I went back to moms and got another hour of much needed sleep before heading north.. I managed to work in a great hour lunch with new work bd sean.. the first place he recommended us to meetwas not only closed.. it was buried in snow.. We found atoner place and had a great talk.. and pretty good sandwich.

later tonight met Trish F and her kids at generator to talk about a robot project..t hen home again to a coulle of hours wrk..

 

I’m pretty beat.. sleep sounds good.. More tomorrow !

Sunday night – liquid water !

At my mom’s house with gabe. raya and bear. i’m takign them to the airport tomorrow morning at 3:45 AM ! (ugh).. SO won’t write long.

 

One thing I want to report on is that I saw something I hadn’t seen in a long. long time today on my run.. liquid water !!!.. tempeatures hit 20 degrees this morning which allowed some of the oral salt to melt some of the snow.. There was liquid water flowing on the roads.. It’s been so cold.. (coldest feb on record).. that water simplky hasn’t existed in liquid form ince the beginning of the year..

 

It’s a sure sign that spring is coming !.. Hallelujah !

saturday night – five naps

came home on the red eye this morning.. got some sleep but not enough.. managed to fall asleep no fear than 5 times throughout the rest of the day.. five nap day.. not too bad..

 

pretty low key day.. one of the first things I noted  this morning when I got home was that we have  a ‘Spock’ magnet on our fridge .. i have to mark the passing of Leonard Nimoy.. every geeks favorite logician.. ‘live long and prosper’ man !

 

 

job one this morning was to go retrieve the Subaru.. The car had gotten  stuck last night in a snow bank up old stage. this morning diane, max and I went up there with a propylene rope and towed it out with the other car.. .. saved us on waiting for and paying for a tow.. felt good to be able to do it ourselves.

 

 

the rest of the day was small bursts of activity punctuated by naps in front of the fire, on the couch, in the snow, etc.. as I said.. 5 of them !

 

This evening we had a small pizza party where the seven of us used every possible ingredient in the house to make pizzas.. (dates. apples, artichokes, capers, pesto.. yum !)

after dinner a bunch of us went out and seeded in the bright moonlight. it was 7 degrees ABOVE zero, which felt like a heat wave !

now struggling to stay awake.. gonna have to stop here and sleep..

more tomorrow
