Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince ...

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince arrived yesterday. I read the first chapter before heading over to Box seats and then read chapters 2-7 before going to bed. So far I am enjoying the book, hope to get alot of reading done tomorrow at the beach. We are finally getting back to the Cape. Got alot to do today, going to meet with the Holiday Inn to select meals for the wedding so we can then work on invitations. Meeting with my Uncle Rich to look at the wedding rings. And I have to remember to pick up my suit at the cleaners.

Allison and I may also be taking a step towards home ownership. I’ve got to make some calls to get the ball rolling. Nothing concrete yet but a possible opportunity may have popped up that we would like to check out and prepare for.

Last night I was joined my Allison, my Aunt Millie, Aunt Candy, Dad, Tara, Erik, Jenn, and Cousin Bill and his wife Jen for a free dinner at Box Seats in North Attleboro. I like that place alot. They keep going through different owners and things change a bit from time to time but the place feels the same and we like it. I won a business card in a fishbowl lunch or appetizers from American Express Financial Advisors, again. They would pay for $10.00 a person for the ten people we had $100.00 of the meal paid for and only had to come up with $40.00 to pay the rest off. We had a good time.

Off to Fayetteville North Carolina on Sunday for a demo on Monday. Should be interesting. At Fran’s funeral I met up with her grandson Matthew who lives in Fayetteville. Strange coincidence.

Sorting Transformers ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02424 Yesterday I drove Andy to school. Today I walked over with them. I did so not because I didn't think Andy would be safe on their own. Andy has been walking home from school for well over a year so walking to school is the same thing just in reverse. I wanted to see how long it actually took for the walk to go. I of course, over estimated how early we had to head over. The walk itself only takes a brisk 15 minutes. And that is at a modified teenager's shuffle. So Andy can leave the house around 6:25-6:30 and still get there by 6:45 when the doors open to the High School. Good to know. During the day I started one of the projects I've been meaning to start and have been putting off. I'm sorting through my Transformers and getting them ready to sell. I have talked with the guys at Double Midnight Comics about selling them my collection. Not the stuff I have on display and also I am picking out some figures that I want to keep as part of the collectio...

Time with Lexi ...

  Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02401 Today We watched my sister's dog, Lexi. My sister and her husband were coming back up here from their home and they had boarded the dog. They weren't sure if they'd be there in time to pick her up so we did that for them. We had Lexi for a couple of hours before they arrived and we had dinner together. Lexi was pretty chill for the most part until Torrun came in to the living room to investigate. At first they just looked at each other. Andy grabbed for LEXI's leash and then Lexi tried to go after Torrun. Torrun ended up bolting for the upstairs and we did not see her for hours. James knew enough not to even come down.

Time For Another Change ...

  Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02402 Andy decided to clean their room today. In so doing they decided that they no longer wish to hang on to their LEGO sets. So, I now have them all and I spent the afternoon disassembling many sets to fit into the one bucket. There were many Minecraft sets in there. What I'm going to do eventually is take what is in the bucket and separate it down to the individual sets that I still have instructions books for. The organizing of that is going to be daunting. I will try and figure out an efficient way to separate everything but I'm sure that will take some time. Andy also decided that they no longer want the piggy bank that was mine. That I am putting into a box for Andy for when they get older and maybe have kids of their own.
