Alpha’s Graduation Gift

We’ve been at full speed, so today I made time to catch up with family.

Made driving arrangements with Peter next week while he’s at AltConf 2015 and WWDC.

Brought Alpha to Game Stop to shop for her graduation gift. She picked out only one game but the other she wanted was there as well, and since they were both marked down, I bought two for her instead of just one.

Turns out, her gaming system was supposed to be back today after being repaired. Great timing.

I put together my TEALS presentation slides and sent them off to Nathaniel for review.

Emailed questions to Jim about his new lead generation partner’s requirements.

It rained for most of the day, so no flower work, but I did mix 40 pounds of lime into the pile of yard debris in the back and spread a bag of topsoil and grass seed on a low-lying “swamp” next to the vegetable garden.

We’ve been having fun watching the tiny sparrow fledglings swoop around. There seem to be several families here this year, one in Robert’s birdhouse and at least one in the big arbor vitae in the front. Might be a nest in one of the bushes next to the front steps as well.

Ron sautéed the remaining spinach and a box of mushrooms and cooked the corn for supper. I grilled turkey burgers.

Yesterday, Ron and I went to Falmouth to pick up my handouts for the presentation. We stopped at Kappy’s to return bottles and dropped in to Emma’s exhibit at FCTV. By strange coincidence, Emma called last evening! We hope to get together some weekend.
