A busy, albeit boring, weekend! I've been trying to get all this summer's paperwork done. I got all the records done for the work on the new basement apartment, and helped Anna put together her taxes for 2007 and 2008. It was a bit challenging to deal with her income from teaching in France, and we're going in to see the IRS guys on Tuesday afternoon to make sure that we have the concept accurately.
Had a delightful breakfast at the Glenwood with Adam and the kids, who then came to help me set up the Skype which Adam gave me for my birthday. Sam and Emma took an old Magic Tricks book which had been Anna and Aric's. Emma practiced with the Ringmaster's hat and bow tie while Sam figured out how to use the fake thumb, aided by a mixture of catsup and cocktail sauce, to produce blood and gore.
I finally got the info together to do the accounting for our England trip, and had a lovely long conversation with Robbie and Seraph.

A quick good morning to all. If you remember Sadie's former gf, Anna Levitt? She and her band will be playing Thursday night at Cosmic Pizza at 8:00 pm. Can we put together a theatre party and go? Much love, mom

Hopefully, the 90 degree day predicted for today is the last scorcher for the summer! I'm membership chair for the local League of Women Voters. The big project for this is planning the fall luncheon, which is a real pain in the keister, as Prez Regan used to say. I'm having my first committee meeting at Lavelle's wine bar in Fifth Street Public Market. Since I want my committee members to do all these crappy jobs, like send invitations, I'm hoping to ply them with likker (and a nice cheese and fruit plate) so they're in an agreeable mood. Leadership....I'm a natural.

Hi, and a hot Thursday afternoon! Here at home, fans running, ice water in hand, I'm feeling very sympathetic to those
working in the sun, or working, period. I've had two Board of Directors meetings and one Audit Committee meeting this week, with a Membership Committee meeting and an IRB meeting next week. I thought this was vacation time. Jordan's birthday party was very fun! Hugs to all, Mom

Adam and Jenny - would either Dez or Sam like to go to the Symphony with Bob and me. I have a chance to buy a single ticket for myself and Dez or Sam could sit with Bob.
9/24 The New World Symphony
10/22 Mozart's Magic Flute
11/19 The Mighty Organ Symphony
12/03 Beethoven and Brahms
1/21 Shostakovich Fifth Symphony
2/18 Beethoven's Fourth
3/18 Royal Fireworks
4/22 Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto
5/20 Mahler's Titan
Sorry, but I want a bumper sticker which says, I hate Mahler.
or maybe, "I love Dvorak"

Home sweet home! Agatha Christie apparently once said, "English coffee always tastes like a chemistry experiment." I continue to believe that the British are superior in all things but the preparation of coffee.
All's well here, and I'm trying desparately to get everything done I didn't get done this summer.
