Uncle Roger's Notebooks of Daily Life

Introduction

My life is, to me, ripe with frequent challenges, occasional successes, spontaneous laughter, adequate tears, and enough *life* to last me a lifetime. To you, however, it surely seems most pedestrian. And therefore, I recycle the name I used previously and call this my Notebooks of Daily Life. Daily, because it's everyday in nature, ordinary. These conglomeration of events that are my life are of interest to me because I live it, perhaps mildly so to those who are touched by it, and could only be of perverse, morbid curiosity to anyone else. Yet, I offer them here nonetheless. Make of them what you will, and perhaps you can learn from my mistakes.

Small World

Friday was our night to cook in Calistoga, so we got a cake for Sara's birthday. We of course all sang happy birthday. A little boy whose room was on the second floor above ours heard the singing and ran down with his father in tow.

His father explained that the boy, Kyle, had heard the singing and was hoping there might be an extra piece. Naturally, there was, and we were happy to share.

The next day we went out to the pool and Diane came over saying she wanted to intmoduce us to someone. "This is the man whose boy wanted some cake last night. They live right near you." Turns out, they're a couple, originally (and obviously) from Scotland, and they live just a couple of streets over. Their son was just three, so he and Jared are almost exactly the same age.

We chatted and agreed we should exchange info so the boys can play together. Unfortunately, when all you're wearing is a swimsuit, a pen and paper can be difficult to come by, not to mention hang onto and keep dry. I did eventually get them our info. So far, we haven't heard from them, but I fully understand the challenges of getting back into the swing of things, both at home and at work, after a vacation, especially when you have kids.
