Vacation On Track
That title seems a little off. Vacation ideally shouldn’t have a track. Relaxing things don’t have a track.
But this vacation is spoken for. I’m doing work on and around the house. Building walls and (if I can get my act together) replacing a dead garbage disposer. Lots of encouraging progress was made yesterday, suggesting that this vacation time will not go to waste.
One odd thing about this vacation so far… nothing really odd has happened yet. Well, unless you consider it odd that we have inherited a frog from my daughter’s classroom. Summer vacation is coming, and the frog needs a home. Since we donated the money for the frog, we had first choice to claim him. And when our daughter implored us to give the frog a home, we were forced to take him in. So now we have an actual pet.
This frog is tiny. About the size of my thumbnail. If it’s a female, it will get much larger, but so far we have no idea what it is. Thus the ambiguous name “Sam.”
OK, enough socializing. Time for me to get back to work.
