Hitting the books ...

I thought I'd better send along proof that Bill is spending hours studying for the GRE test. Here he is at my dining table, working on some challenging math problems that could be on the exam. He's up until after midnight almost every night reviewing English, math and writing. Hold good thoughts for him. Especially on September 12th.

Busy days in India

Mom's place is jumping now. Bill is here and the kids love to come over and play with him. But most of the time, he is studying for his GRE test that happens on Sept. 12. When he takes a break it's to check his emails or to take a swim. Diana left a week ago after an amazing six weeks of Chennai and touring about India.
Mom is planning things to see and places to go when Aunt Mary and Aunt Paula come to visit in October.

A Wicked Day in New York

It was a thoroughly Wicked New York Day, Aunt Paula arrived from the East. Kate picked up her face companion at Penn Station in the morning. We had breakfast in a diner, nothing could be finer. We took a walk in Riverside Park and noted the historic monuments. Then off to Orchestra Row DD and our play. The woman next to Paula said she had always wanted to be a double d and was quite pleased.

Flying monkeys zoomed overhead, a green witch found her true calling flying on a broomstick, a beautiful blonde became less shallow and the wizard was revealed as a fraud. Hope you see it and we have not given it all away.

We had dinner near the Museum of Natural History on the Upper West Side. We had grilled fish and white wine and good conversation and last but not least a chocolate brownie with pistachcio ice cream. We walked home and got a decaf Starbucks on the way.

Arrived home to mom's call.

Your turn to update the blog.


Love, Kate and Aunt Paula
