Location: At Home in The Cottage, Falmouth, MA
Today was another warm day, but this looks to be the end of the unseasonably warm weather for now. Tomorrow the daytime high will be around 40 and then the following four to five days the daytime high will be in the 30’s. Brrrrrrr. Heather, Jonah, Ollie, and I took advantage of the warmth this morning to go for a long walk with Shadow. I then headed to town to do some grocery shopping. When I got home, I watched as Heather and the boys worked on a craft together and before we knew it, it was time to fix dinner. We had our now normal Zoom dinner with Jed and Sam and then we watched the Hip Hop Nutcracker. This is a show you have to pay for that is streamed on your computer and we then connected the computer to the television, so we could see it on the big screen. Hip Hop dancing replaced ballet and Tchaikovsky’s music was given a modern twist. The dancers were phenomenal, replacing spinning on your toes with spinning on your head. And the violin player was exceptional. I wasn’t sure I would like this, but I loved it. Thank you, Heather, for footing the bill for this show. It was a great way to end the weekend and get ready for another school week. I know all of the Goldstones are so anxious to be together as a family unit again, but I have truly enjoyed having Heather, Jonah, and Ollie here with me.
