In the meantime, I will be driving to La Guardia to fetch Hannah from a late night flight back from college for spring break.
She'll get to sleep in as late as she wants, because Gretta and I will be out of the house by 6AM to attend the True Colors conference at UCONN. Gretta is an active member of the gay/straight alliance at her school, and a group of us are going to this wonderful conference again this year. I love going along as a chaperone and being in the midst of kids who may be feeling safe for the very first time in their lives. I am also glad to be a "straight but not narrow" adult for these kids to talk with. Our family have long been members of HRC, and are dedicated to standing firm against hatred.
And on Sunday, there will be NO alarm clocks going off at our house.
P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JANE!!!!! The best is yet to come, no doubt about it, girl!
Sounds like a wonderful weekend for everyone! I'd like to be in that tree pruning crew! Wait a minute, i still have my own branches brought down by wind to cut up and haul away to the brush pile...
