Yesterday Was working. Monday. Yuck. But yesterday, my brother and his family were in Boston, bringing the girls to Children's Hospital looking at treatments for them - I haven't mentioned it, but they both have been diagnosed with Crohn's Disease. They're only 8 and 9! One is doing really well, very few symptoms, but the other is really struggling while they try to knock it into remission. Not gonna say much on that other than that I think about it all the time, hope they don't have too many problems too young, and that both girls looked great and were their normal bouncy chatty selves. They met me for lunch after their appointment. I was SO happy to see them all in My World in the middle of what would normally be just a normal crappy busy Monday. Makes me wish they all lived closer, or at least would visit me more often :-) Tomato update Can't eat the termater from the last post for another couple days. But it's indoors on the windowsill, sitting and waiti

I think we're gonna eat that red one tomorrow.

Just got back from an awesome week with our friends in Plum Island. On the 4th, bright and early, Kim and Jim came in from California, and Karen came in from Albany, NY, to begin the weekend watching the fireworks in Boston. As always the effort and colossal pain in the butt getting there and back was totally worth it. Saturday morning, we got ready to go to our beach house that we rented on Plum Island, which is off the coast of Newburyport, MA. It felt like we were far far away from home. We had the best time and it was SO great to be with my best friends for a week, with lots of others coming up to visit. Here's a link to our photos , and below are my favorites. The house Our view. We were on the "basin" side of the island, not the ocean side. This area completely drained during low tide so we could walk to the ocean side during low tide. The city of Newburyport itself is off in the distance At sunset Here's the set of my MOST favorite pics... Me and Randy
