Gratitude


For the past two months my life has been profoundly sane.

Much of August was spent up in Litchfield County and then a bit of beach time on Cape Cod. Up there is a picture of our favorite beach, Longnook in Truro.

Earlier this month, Ben started seventh grade at the alternative school within his school. He once again has 23 kids to a grade and classes split in half for courses just like his time at St. Lukes School. So far the transition is working out.

Thank you baby Jesus!

I also took time at the end of August to turn 48. My appreciation for nature and peace have deepened significantly in the last year.

People advocate for the slow food movement but there is something to be said for the slow life movement.

I know this move was a big one for you and your family in many, many ways. I'm glad to hear that in balance, it is being a good one. Happy belated. Nature and peace can be good, can't they?

Glad all is well. Happy Fall. The trees are starting to turn colors in Tompkins.
