First car - freedom and independence begins. AND I know short road well but why this sign is on my neighbor's driveway is something i don't fully understand. Yet.
A full day and what may sadly signify the end of our daily walks, as Lauren drove to school in my car and will start driving to school tomorrow in her own. She bought the Mini. All said and done, although it was $2k more than originally expected it's still a good price and a really ideal car for her. It was rewarding to go along for the ride, as it were, helping her get this, and anticipating that she'll have years of life experiences related to this on the horizon. It also give me a sense of legacy to consider that as I once did as a trribute to my father's own cross country advventure, Lauren might someday do the same. It was also touching to have Tommy come along and with me in the back seat, witness a bond and interaction betwene them that gave me hope for the love and connection they might share in their lives ahead, as adults and siblings. I did well with work demands and progress and hope to make some significant progress tomorrow. Dinner with Jess and Bev at Opa was great. I really appreciated the opportunity to connect as couples, given that the routine with Jess is typically guy-centric, it was a differnet dynamic and dimention, and helped me reconginze that there's so many aspects about all of my friends lives outside of the slices of time we spend in our own relative coccons. There's so much more going on for all of us in so many varied ways. that's easy to overlook. Oh and today I learned about Le Vigne winery in Paso Robles. Note to self - go there.
