Date: Tuesday, May 2, 2023
Weather: Windy and Cool; High 59, Low 46 degrees F
Location: At Home in the Cottage, East Falmouth, MA
Although I didn’t get to sleep until 2:30 am, I was up early to go get my Shadow. When I got home last night, I was so lonely without him. He is not an easy dog to handle, but I love that little guy. When I arrived at the Woodin’s this morning, Shadow seemed as happy to see me as I was to see him. Bruce and Jane had Shadow’s things packed and ready to go, and they swore they enjoyed having Shadow. They admitted that he is rambunctious, but despite that, they bonded and had a great time. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you to my dear friends, Bruce and Jane Woodin.
Shadow and I got home and before I knew it, it was time to head to a 1 pm meeting with Christina Brodie. Christina and I have just been voted in to be the co-Presidents of Encore and we needed to meet to go over what needs to be done before July 1 when we take the helm. We meant to meet until 3 pm, but the first time I checked my phone, it was 4:45 pm. We had no idea that much time had passed. Christina had another meeting at 5 pm, so we were both out the door quickly. We will have to touch base again later in the week to finish that to do list.
It was windy and cool today. In fact, I have been freezing since I arrived at Logan Airport last night. It was not that much warmer in North Carolina, but I didn’t need to wear a winter coat. I am going to get my winter coat out of the closet tomorrow morning. Walking Shadow this evening was just not comfortable.
Tomorrow morning, I am off to Boston to the Isabella Gardner Museum with the Newcomers Field Trip group. There are over 7,500 paintings and sculptures on display. I visited the museum once a few years ago with Mark, and I am looking forward to visiting again.
