Ready…

The more fun you have … the more complicated it all becomes. Paul’s here, as he has been off and on since before Christmas. Jan came through this weekend, too. I wanted to have the weekend pretty clear when she got here so I gunned it to get ready for this upcoming trip and for the trip I will embark on the morning after my return. The second trip is to the far north of Washington in the camper and so prep involved the camper, the truck, the food, the clothes, cleaning, etc. It’s ready to go and the suitcase for the international trip is packed, too. Yesterday we all had things to do, and last night we went out for sushi. Found a great place not far from me. Ohjah Japanese Steakhouse. Then we came home and watched Cunk on Earth. Again. Third time for Paul, second time for me. Jan, being new to it, stared in amazement at the level of … well, stupidity is a good word for it.

The AirBnb in Sicily just sent over their check-in form, so that’s done. Trip feels real, now. Jan and I will see the Nevada Ballet’s Wizard of Oz (Ben Stevenson!) It’s mother’s day. No one celebrates me as their mother, anymore, but I might get a phone call from Alex.
