Soooo.....Having a boring yet somewhat productive day. I'm now in the middle of my semi-annual Fawn Hall Event, in which I gather up the copious amounts of mail and such that has accumulated over the past six months and commence to shredding. I've mowed my way through two very large piles, and now only have to go through the mounds on top of our kitchen island and desk.
We're on vacation all week; we were supposed to be on a cruise going from NY to Nova Scotia but events conspired against us and we had to cancel our plans. Now I'm glad we did- between the restrictions when flying and the storm off the East coast (Ernesto, I believe) the fun would have been diminished. I checked in on our former cruise at Cruise Critic, and one person on board said the weather was bad, ocean really tumultuous and the Martha's Vineyard stop had to be cancelled. We're looking at a Hawaiian cruise or a trip to Europe next year instead.
Friday we're going to Seattle for the weekend- going to stay at a nice hotel in downtown and hit all the tourist traps like Pioneer Square, the Market and the museums. We seldom do that anymore- we either just stop off while flying to elsewhere, or we visit relatives and hang out at their homes. It will be nice to get away, even if it is for a short time.
