Return to Boston

I got in late wednesday night, and was fortunate that [livejournal.com profile] thanos73 could pick me up. At some point during the trip I managed to majorly screw up something in my shoulder though. My sister is going to take a look at it this weekend.

I came home to a sleeping child (thankfully! She had wanted to stay up, but she had her first day of school the next day), an extra huggy Roger, and a house with a freshly cleaned kitchen and bathtub. No matter what anyone else says that boy has his priorities straight. Given limited time, those are the 2 that were the most important to me.

The rest of the house on the otherhand needs a bit of work. I am not sure when I will have time to really get it looking the way I want it to though. I also need to freeze/can/store a bunch of produce. I know I will be shredding and freezing zuchini for zuchini bread later in the season and making a huge batch of eggplant parmesan for easy meal planning later. The rest of the produce will have to be eaten very soon or similarly found a way to store.

There were so many things I missed! Beyond all the important people in my life some of these include: the Boston city skyline, "my" bridge, the stove, the bathtub, our bed, the spice cabinet, my stash, the fact that bus signs usually have not only a route number but also where the bus is headed, the fact that people say thank you to the busdriver when they get off, great seafood, and countless other small details.

i agree that the thank you to the bus driver is a very endearing part of living in this area. It's something that makes me feel a little better about humanity to hear.
