we are family

Spent yesterday afternoon with my Aunt Helen and cousins. It is nice to be surrounded by family and see how well others with the same genes turned out. Makes me feel hopeful. Two of my little cousins are following in my footsteps and are learning to juggle. I worked with them a little and they are getting good. Very soon they will be passing the balls just like circus folk! Didn’t know I was a juggler, huh? It is true. Back when I was in high school I taught myself. The main reason behind learning was that I wanted to intimidate my Track & Field opponents by juggling shot puts. Sadly, I was never was able to attain that much strength. At any rate, I wanted to surprise everyone with the news that I was buying a condo. I walked in the door and everyone congratulated me on the purchase. Did Mom call ahead of me? No. They all read donnaville.

P.S. Note the countdown to settlement on the right column. I am not anxious. Not at all.
