Yesterday, I made bread and granola, booked an appointment with our attorney, spoke with our investment manager about 2010 contributions to the kids’ 529 accounts and did laundry.<\/p>
Ron got acquainted with the water shutoffs and the fuse box, replaced the furnace filter, started troubleshooting a problem with the lights in the bathroom, refilled the bird feeder and shoveled off the deck.<\/p>
I also made us late for a Harvard-Pilgrim seminar on Medicare supplements by asking to drop off Christmas lights from Franklin Street at the St. Vincent DePaul thrift store and by messing up the address.<\/p>
Just as well. \u00a0The information was pretty much a duplicate of what we’d heard earlier in the week, and we were spared a droning monologue by another attendee, part of which we listened to while waiting for a private meeting with the H-P representative.<\/p>
We stopped at Home Depot for a few items, including a gift certificate for Peter and Bonnie, then picked up gift certs for the kids at Borders plus some cheeses and other good things at Trader Joe’s.<\/p>
We took the back roads home to avoid traffic and to drop off a Christmas gift to the Robbins children. \u00a0Saw Jeremy, who looks very much like his Mom.<\/p>
By that time, it was too late to stop at Town Hall. \u00a0Next week.<\/p>
Supper was cheese and crackers and Medjool dates stuffed with melted Manchego.<\/p>
We talked about visiting Nova Scotia, where Ron has been told that everyone looks like him. \u00a0Could be interesting!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
