Diabetic Roulette ...

Photo-A-Day #02589 Andy and I are on our own for the week. Allison and Eva are having a great time with Mimi in London. Today I slept till 9am, I have not slept past 6am in YEARS. Alarms off and no one waking me up. It was great. Andy had forgotten to turn off their alarm so they were up early but quiet enough not to wake me. We played some One Hit Heroes in the afternoon. We were going to attempt to play a Transformers card game but the game rules proved a bit challenging. so we scrapped that idea. I'll play the solo version and figure out how it is supposed to be played and then we'll try playing together. Andy asked that we go to Johnny Rockets for dinner. On the way out they said that they had money and would be paying. It was revealed that the money had come from Mimi to take us out one night while the girls were over in London. Andy chose Johnny Rockets at the Providence Place Mall. They were paying so who was I to argue. Johnny Rockets is airport food and well, not that ...

The Winter Wolf Sign is Up ...

Photo-A-Day #02588 I had rehearsal tonight for The Winter Wolf and the sign for the show is now up for everyone to see. I'm excited by this. I'm excited for this show. We have been working very hard to make this a great show for people. The story is wonderful and the other actors are great. We are a cast of 5 and I'm feeling very much like the weak link. I have most of my lines down but keep having a tough time with a few of them. I've been "off book" for the last couple of rehearsals but still, I just can't seem to get them down. Tonight I learned that I do not project enough. This is the first time ever that I've had an actual role beyond 5 lines. It has been a challenge and I believe that I am meeting the challenge but I can't help feeling like I am letting everyone down when I flub a line or 6. We'll get there. Allison and Eva are on their adventure in London. I decided that I'd take a sick day tonight and Andy and I enjoyed watching Th...

Happy Valentine's Day 2026 ...

Photo-A-Day #02587 Was a rather quiet Valentine's Day around the house. I slept much of the day and got up to drive Allison and Eva to the airport for their flight to London. They are headed there for the next week. The drive in was pretty easy by our usual standard drive to Boston. We had plenty of time and they got through to their gate pretty quickly. Allison texted me part way through my drive home. Any and I are home alone for Feb vacation.  I mentioned to andy that maybe they clean their room over the break. Well, when Andy gets motivation they get things done. Today they went through their books and bookshelf. Moved the bookshelf around and will get to other parts of the room tomorrow and through the week. I've got to go through the books that Andy is getting rid of, some are good for the cousins, some for Savers and some I'll put away with Andy's stuff for when they are older.

McDonald's Changeables ...

Photo-A-Day #02586 The McDonald's Happy MEals now come with these little robots called Changeables. They take the different McDonald's items and turn them into little robots. I got the cash register called X-CH4NG3. Cute simple transformation.

Marvel Oreos ...

Photo-A-Day #02585 I had heard that there were going to be some Marvel themed Oreos being released. There are four different packages and 32 different designs on the Oreos themselves. I picked up a package for the family today.

Ready For The Dance ...

Photo-A-Day #02584 This morning as I was taking Andy to school they asked me if I could take them to the Mall after school. I asked what for and Andy said a suit. Apparently tomorrow after school is a Valentine's Dance and Andy and their friends are all going wearing dressy clothes. Andy has outgrown the suit that they had. As I talked more with Andy I learned that Andy only wanted new pants and a new shirt. We went over to the mall to MAcy's to look but they had nothing. It wasn't until dinner that I was reminding that Macy's men's clothes were in a different location in the Mall. We ended up finding a shirt and pants in J.C. Penny. So Andy is all set for the event and they are borrowing my vest from the Father/Daughter dance and my tie as well.

Mystery Feather Dusters ...

Photo-A-Day #02583 The other day we got some boxes from Amazon. One of them I set aside because I thought it was the stickers for my car. Well, I opened them today and come to find out, they were not the stickers. They were actually a set of feather dusters. We did not order feather dusters. I threw out the box so I am not sure if these were actually ours.  *Update - Apparently, grandpa Dano ordered them for Mimi and somehow sent them to us.
