2025 Life Logs, Day 72: Encore Monthly Meeting to Full Moon
Date: Thursday, March 13, 2025
Weather: Sunny and Cold; High Temp 41, Low 36 degrees F
Location: At Home on Lakeview Avenue with My Shadow, Falmouth, MA
Today started with an Encore monthly meeting and is ending with the anticipation of the full moon in the middle of the night at 2:55 am. There will also be a lunar eclipse during the night, beginning just before midnight. Since it is already 11:30 pm, I’ll get to check out the very beginning. But I am choosing not to get up during the night to see the full eclipse.
What else happened today? Kevin and Claire tried to call me on my birthday last week so Kevin could sing Happy Birthday to me, but the timing was not working for me. It took until today for us to find a common time to talk. They really want to get the boat repair work completed and get the boat into the water to cruise the Sea of Cortez next winter. They have friends on two other boats that they would love to cruise with. So, here’s hoping they can get all the work done in time. After that I tuned into the every Thursday afternoon at 3 pm Zoom call with Indivisible (national). The main topic today is the decision the Democrats have to make by tomorrow on how to vote on the budget. Go along and keep the government open or go against and shut down the government. Almost a no-win situation.
Then this evening it was off the a Falmouth Democratic Town Committee (FDTC) meeting. I’ve never attended one before, but I decided it was time to check it out. And when I got home from that, I made one more trip out for today. I delivered by old Canon camera to Heather and Jed’s so they can use it to try and get photos of the eclipse tonight. That gave me a chance to catch up with them and found that they had attended the installation of art pieces for a display at WHOI done by the Ninjas (Ollie’s middle school art honor group). Jed sent me a photo of Ollie sitting beneath the piece he worked on. Once again, so proud.
