DOWN TO THE WIRE
Would you believe that even though I've been here just about five months there are still things that I have not gotten to do?

There have been days when I had to decide:

- go hear a prominent speaker
- go to the grand opening of a new store
- go to the pool
- stay home and just relax

You know for sure what I didn't do!



My Dear Cousin
Once during my stay in Florida I made arrangements with a dear cousin that lives down here permanently to meet for lunch, it didn't work out. Hopefully we'll plan to get together this Sunday for lunch at Johnny G's in Lake Worth. It's a very popular fish restaurant located right on the beach. Usually there is a long wait but since many snowbirds have already gone home our wait shouldn't be too long.

When I was growing up we spent a lot of time together, she had two sisters and I have none so she was like a sister to me. Her older sisters taught her many things and she pased some of what she learned from them on to me. No matter where we lived or what was happening in our lives, we always kept in touch. A few years ago we spent two weeks together at Senior Summer School in Flagstaff, Arizona. What a great time we had!

Passover with Friends at a Restaurant
I'll be spending the first night of Passover with friends at a restaurant in Delray. The menu will be a traditional Passover meal with all the fixings. I would say that most of the population in this area either eat out or order a complete dinner and have it at home. I remember one year going to a country club for Passover where they had a rabbi conduct the service, a fine meal was served AND there was a band for dancing!! Only in Florida!!

At Home - Cancel this, Start that
I've been home today making all the necessary calls, cancel this, start that, change my address and on and on.

Once I get settled up north I'll start blogging again.

Where ever you are, I hope the sun shines.

I can't believe it's almost time for you to head north again! Where on earth did the five months go? But it sounds like you had a great visit. Have a safe trip back home and hope weather has now improved for you up there.

It sure doesn't seem like you've been down there long enough to be planning your trip north, Millie. I hope you get to meet your cousin and that you don't have to wait too long to get into the restaurant.
 
I always love to read that you are getting ready to come back, because that signals warmer weather up here in New England. Glad to have you back!

What a fun blog. I'm new to this whole blog thing, just started my own. I love your photos, they are so clear! I would like to add a link to your blog on mine, just still trying to figure out how to do that. Can you link to mine as well? www.HearFromMe.com
 
Hi Millie,

I linked to your blog last year. I LOVE reading about your interests. :-) I'm the mom with 5 sons that you commented to last year. It was the highlight of my blogging career! :-)

Do you have a widget or blogger button that I can put on my blog? I'd love to highlight it better instead of just hiding it in the list.

Good luck with your move! :-)

Happy Passover. I hope the trip is smooth...
 
I hope you have a safe trip home, Millie. I'll be looking forward to hearing about the rest of your Florida adventures as well as what you'll be up to here in Boston.

Peace!
 
Seems like you just got there, Millie!!!!!

I hope your preparations go smoothly anmd you have a safe trip bhome!
 
Hi Millie,

I got your cartoon pic. I have it on my blog. :-)

Thank you for commenting. I squealed and my sons wondered what was wrong with me! LOL

Take care
 
Checking in on you, Millie. I know you're back in Mass. again and I'm sure you're busy settling back into New England.
Hope all is well with you.

I read that post when you published it and was interrupted. Didn't have time to comment!
Now I've seen that you're back to Boston!
Passover at the restaurant sounds quite amazing from here. I wonder if there are places where you could do that!
