The Not So Big Hurricane
Saturday M and I were planning on visiting a judge we are interested in being the officiant for our wedding. I was very concerned about the weather based off of what I was reading about the hurricane and the travel advisories. M was less concerned but I was worried that if we woke up Saturday [...]
Another Convert
Today the unthinkable happened. I ordered M a new computer. Since 2003 M has had the same HP laptop. Long ago I gave up making fun of her for it. For me I like something new, and I know that most people don’t. For her even though the laptop was old by any standard it [...]
Meetup’s with Friends and Family
Today M and I went upstate again to visit a different friend. One of her best friends since growing up was visiting her parents lake house and we decided to go up and see her and her kids. She is not around too often since she lives near DC. Getting there was as painful as [...]
The Meeting of the Families
Today was the day that my parents and M’s parents met for the first time. We decided on Sunday brunch to bring everyone together. I will be honest and say I was a bit nervous. I think I get along with M’s parents great, and my parents love her but just getting them all in the [...]
My Mom’s Birthday
Today we got up and went to a local Crepes place in Woodside. We had seen it on Yelp a few weeks ago and had wanted to try it but have been busy. I have been craving crepes since our trip to France. I fell in love with them there. It was nice to find [...]
My One Day of Religion a Year
Today M and I went out to Long Island for a party celebrating her Aunt’s 60th year as a nun. We meet up with her Parents, one of her brothers, her sister in law and 2 nephews. It was an interesting party. It was the first time we saw everyone since we got engaged so that was different. [...]
Venue Visits and a BBQ
Today M and I went back to visit the View on the Hudson with my mom to show her the venue. We still think that venue is the front runner for us. We also had an appointment to another venue that my mom originally recommended that is out on Long Island. My mom loved the [...]
4Th Birthday Party
Today I went to my nephew’s 4th birthday party. It was a bit early this year since my sister won at an auction an appearance / performance of Zachary’s favorite musical performer. This guy is like kiddie crack for Zack. He loves his music. So in order to have him for the party they had [...]
Passover With The Family
Today was the first night of Passover. My family met at my brother-in-law’s dads apartment in the city. There were a lot of people there. Besides my sister, her husband, and her three kids, my brother-in-law’s sister, her husband and 3 kids, my brother-inlaw’s dad, his brother and some of his grandchildren. In total there [...]
Canceled Plans
So my plans to see my dad got canceled at the last minute. Apparently he got a cold this weekend. When I called he didn’t sound to hot and he didn’t want to get me sick. There was also the not wanting to drive to get me and the computer either. We decided it best [...]
