Invitations

I got the invitation to Pamela's May 5th celebration in Rye. I get to stay at the Caty Staunton house again this cool bed and breakfast in Greenwich.

It doesn't make sense to fly home Mon. and back Fri. Maybe I'll go to the Hamptons or Boston or the Cape.

Another black tie event....hum could I get by with a white evening suit?

Emily and her family are coming to the wedding...yeah! It will be good to see her again and to see all the kids together.

I cleaned out my closet and so far have over 5k of professional clothes to donate. Yikes. The closets are not done yet but they are lighter.

I tutored Richard in History for 3 hours. I wanted to scream. He did manage to memorize bank holiday although he thinks a run on the bank is when people go running but he can nor tell you they close the banks to avoid money taken out. Two other definitions took him over an hour. An 18 question fill in the blank quiz another 1.5 and a short essay, impossible. I don't think there are enough hours in the week to get this child to pass.

For example, I told him to write two words short answer on the top of his paper and pointed to the spot and wrote out the words. He wrote the definition for bank holiday.???

I asked him to put an envelope in the mailbox, put up the flag and put some weeds in the street . He put them both in the street. One thing at a time.

I asked him to take some strawberry tops down to my neighbors 2 houses down for their backyard chickens. He could not count two houses. I'm frustrated and it was just 3 hrs.


We went to Safeway to return a salad. I told him to ask the manager for help. Then he gave him a note and they helped him exchange it, he came out and crossed the street to the car.
