No, No, No Knollwood Daily Photo
A) The camera is with Fran as Bridget and she lead a group of wannabe yoopers around the von Huben family farm for the week-end. I'm not expecting much in the way of pics, since I found the memory card is still attached to my laptop. Ooops. Hope the fishing worked out.
B) Any pic would be of me running about the house in dishabille in preparation for a 48 hour road trip. There was a time I could prep six children for an extended expedition with military precision. Now I can barely pull an overnite bag together for myself.
C) The sinkhole is about the same. I'm truly surprised that the idiots who were putting off fireworks in the cul de sac the past 2 nights didn't think to try launching something down the sinkhole.
D) If I had a camera...the only things new are a)Scrappy alternately sulking and preening as he waits for the other dogs to return from the UP b) Martha screaming as she tries to access a train schedule for the "most horrible part of the trip," i.e. the half hour ride to meet Em and Big Ed in Kenosha. c) Me - trying to explain that after all the driving they had done in the past week (as documented in yesterday's post plus more miscellaneous moving and visiting the family of July 4th) it would be quite ungracious to ask them to not only give us a free ride to the north woods, but come an hour south to pick us up d) Me - on the phone to work leaving voice mail messages explaining why I left on Thursday saying "see you Monday" in good faith but I just happened to be given an invitation too good to pass up. After seven years there I should have established a reputation as "not a flake" but then...the last time I went on a quick trip to see my sister I was calling in with that Bridget's emergency appendectomy stuff.
Gotta run.
Laundry's done.
