Time change

B and I take A for a walk most mornings. Lately it has been very dark and not as enjoyable especially when A gets tangled around a tree after her “personal time” in the woods. As much as I loathe the time change and resulting shorter afternoons, it will be nice to walk the dog in the daylight.

There is snow predicted for Okeemo Mountain today and they plan to open Nov 15th. Maybe B and I can be there for opening day.

Memorial Day

Today I sit outside my usual coffee shop. I have treated myself to a QUAD venti no-whipped mocha. It is a beautiful day in the town square and many people are scurrying around preparing for today’s events including a parade.

Yesterday was J's birthday and I did not speak one word to him. I am still seething with anger over his yelling and swearing at D and myself. Today I am working so I probably will not see him. I am very close to booting him out of the house. I have warned him countless times that I would not tolerate the way he yells and swears at us. However, I am very worried about what would happen to him with no place to live; but I feel like he is boxing me into the corner.

Yesterday D, B and I went to my in-laws camp to help them open it up. Afterwards I took B and my nephew out wake boarding. My nephew and I got up very quickly but B never did. I watched helplessly as he tried over and over to get up. I am sure he is incredibly frustrated. I plan to take him wake boarding real soon so he can work on his technique.
