It’s French.

Years ago, Hurricane Edouard hit Martha's Vineyard. There were articles this week in The Globe about Hurricane Bob which hit New England 30 years ago this week (right before I got married, so I remember it well). Alas, Bob was not French.

A co-worker, who is Afghani, spoke today at a company function. Extremely powerful message, particularly to those who served there and who had family who served there. I’m certain she brought many to tears.

Just hearing that she spoke brings tears to my eyes. My heart goes out to the people of Afghanistan.

Dos. We have a 19 month old son who was born just before the pandemic. Which reminds me, bunda-mama had to wear a mask during labor and delivery. I mean, it makes sense, but I’m sure the mothers on the board can imagine the added challenge.

Thank you, very kind words

Much like the "Chinese" food I enjoy, it has been Americanized. Here in heart of Tex-Mex, the taco is king. But studies years ago probably showed that Americans knew tacos as those crunchy corn things from Taco Bell. 🌮


Did that icon come through for anyone else?

Early morning tennis. And I see the icon Ymo.

I'm either not curious enough or too lazy to see if it works on my iPhone, which is within arm's reach.
