Missed funeral today to the poor planning of my daughter and her emergency print job (that didn't turn out to be a true emergency nor was it printed when she said it would be). Long story short, I could have gone to the funeral and been back for the normal printing job and everyone would have been the served. I know the reason her emergencies are so irritating is because they are exactly what I do. I need to learn from her lack of enough prep time and avoid that myself. arghhhhh.
Finished the afternoon with heavy wet snow. I had heard earlier in the week that this could happen but chose to not dwell on it. I'm just as certain as the emergency theory that the advent of winter is heralded less as one ages. I new season used to be a great thing for me. I liked the closure of one season and the newness of the next one. A chance for a clean start...a different feel to the world...a different set of challenges.... but now, especially with winter and hot hot summer, I'm finding the extremes less, much less enjoyable.
We met soggy Gnaps at the new Fusion Restaurant in the Village. They decided to walk and were really cold and wet. Kristen and I drug Dennis to see the Civic Theatre's production of Hello Dolly. He slept through a goodly portion of the it, but Kristen and I enjoyed ourselves. The idea of "the parade passing by" was in my head when I went to bed. It's not raining on this parade...it's snowing!
