Yesterday I took Pooh to the airport where he flew to Europe. He’ll spend a week in Bulgaria with his best friend and then fly to Portugal for two months for an internship.

I’m currently in Florida with my extended family. To celebrate Peep’s and his cousin’s graduations my Dad is treating us to a cruise. We will soon be boarding the MF Star of the Seas, the world’s largest cruise ship. I’ll be out of touch for a week. Will be posting some pics when we get back. 👍

He’s pursuing electrical engineering. He’s starting in the fall but the lease starts now, so he’s got all summer to move into his new digs. He might just party with friends there for the next couple of months. 😂

Peep’s going to the Big U., but in Denver! We just signed the lease on an efficiency apartment for him. We’re getting the keys on Friday. He’s super excited.

I knew you’d be mad at me but I didn’t hit him hard at all. He seemed just puzzled, not scared or angry. Pooh can probably tame him like our dear friend Billie.

I slapped a squirrel today to get him to stop eating our unripe sweet cherries. It didn’t work. He just ran up higher in the tree and kept eating. I give up. You win, 🐿️. 🥺

Speaking of quarantine, we had a giant snowstorm and I had to hold a review session for our final exam on WebEx. This is the first time I’ve had to do that in 5 years so I’m out of practice.

This just made my day. Here are some kids meeting a 101 year old woman. She was an entomologist and cryptographer in WW II. https://www.reddit.com/r/nextfuckinglevel/s/03Biw...
