September 5-11, 2021

Beth’s birthday, Labor Day, the start of school and the anniversary of 9/11 it’s been an emotional week. 


These are frequent sites;

With back to school and Delta here we decided we should stock up on supplies. A rather large delivery arrived Monday morning and Becky and I put that away.


Ally and I did a puzzle.



Beth came over so we could celebrate her birthday. 


They played Splendor.


Lobster rolls, homemade slaw for dinner.

Ally took a break instead of eating dinner with us. 

But came down to play uno after dinner. We had so much fun. 

Peach pie ala mode for dessert. 


We sang with Debbie and Dave on Facetime with us.


That’s Debbie!

Later that night we watched a GI Joe movie. 

Tuesday, the night before school started Becky and Ally had some special treats; school themed cookies and a 



A gift bag of miniature school supplies for Ally.




Wednesday was the first day of High School for Ally.


I sent her a snap chat to check in and she actually wrote me back! School lunch is provided and she had French fries, corn and grapes for lunch. We are really working on eating. It’s not going great. But it was only the first week of school.


2 thumbs up from Ally as to how the 1st day was.


Thursday was Becky’s first day teaching. This is her all dressed up for work.


Friday! TGIF. Ally had plans to attend an evening school event after practice which would have meant she was gone from 8am until 930pm. I asked for this picture so I could remember what she looked like. That was a long time to be away! 


Ultimately she texted and asked me to come pick her up after practice, and not attend the social function. She was tired. 

And she was, I found her asleep 20 minutes after she got home. I woke her up soon after and she got ready for bed. At 7pm she got ready for bed. 
She had some dinner and went to sleep early.  She was texting with school friends and in really good spirits. 


Saturday morning we finished our puzzle.



And it was a relaxed day at home. Until the evening, when Ally headed back to school for a movie night. She got home around 11pm.

Fun week. Lots of change and adjusting to do.
