“And life barrels on like a runaway train:*

I was chagrined to realize that yesterday’s post included a poem and a painting that I have previously included on the blog. Oy. I really am getting old. But then again, my taste in stuff does not change, so bear with me. And, yes, I know I’ve used the quote in the today’s title before…but it’s a good one, right?

This week went super fast because it was very busy at work. Occasionally I would pause and think, gee, last week I was doing such and such with my DP or my daughter, who were actually here in town with me!

I didn’t have time to be really sad about this, because another thing that happened in this week of weeks is that daughter #1 got a new job which will bring her back to our great flyover state of Missouri. We are all so pleased and thrilled! Of course, this requires numerous myriad, a multitude, yea, an array of tasks to do on both ends. After 10 years in the Big City, she will have to learn how to drive a car again! Zut alors!

And now the weekend is upon us. I am looking forward to watching this movie tonight,MV5BNDlkZjJjYTktZDI4OS00MWFkLTg1MzMtNTY3MmI2OTBkMTU1XkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMjUzOTY1NTc@._V1_UY1200_CR78,0,630,1200_AL_

which I saw for the first time when it was released the year I was a freshman in college.

Also, the wee babes will be coming over to celebrate their Pappy’s birthday.

They sure are enjoying their strained bananas and oatmeal!

Have a good weekend!
