In Our Own Way

When you've gotta go, you've gotta go.

Status: Quo

July 21, 2021 by John Leave a Comment

Don’t get excited. “Tentative” isn’t necessarily the word of the year, or even the moment… but it’s got my vote, for now.

We now have a definite must-leave-by date: next Friday, July 30 — that is, the day our hosts leave for a long-planned (and frankly, long-desperate-for) five-day drive to Michigan and back. Our intention, though, is to leave a couple-three-four days before that, to give them some time to tie up some loose ends here with their home and business.

But, well… 2021, right? The Year of Overturned Schedules. (And we thought 2020 was bad: bwaa-ha-ha!) So, not counting any chickens. We’ll just have to see.
