A stay-in day for me as those galleys won’t do themselves. And it’s a changeable day weather wise. Rain, sun, clouds, sun, rain. I guess we’d call that an indecisive day. Kat makes a run for a few things, and reports we’ve just about cleaned the little local chemist out of Kleenex.
I have to say it’s very strange to immerse myself in New York, fall of 2061 with that view out the window.
But meanwhile, laundry’s happening. I do a load while I’m working out, Kat follows me up. Colt’s on the slate and so on.
JR, Kayla and Jason are also doing some remote work while Kat and Savanna take off for the craft village. I think Logan’s stretched out somewhere.
Kayla and JR take a break and a walk in the breezy sunlight. I really meant to do that myself. Jason and Griffin play roll the ball down the hallway—and this Griffin appears to find hysterical.
Later, Colt and Griffin play throw the stuffed Pikmin toy in the TV room, which Griffin again finds hysterical.
He’s easily entertained today.
I’m making solid headway, take a break to do a little packing, make some soup for Kayla. And get back to it.
Kat and Savanna return from a very good time, with shopping bags to prove it.
Dinner orders placed—the day came and went. Once again Kat’s our delivery girl. Next trip, we’ll make sure there are eateries in the neighborhood. But with our varied choices we sit around the big table for family dinner.
More laundry as we’ll be out most of Friday, then leave for Mayo and Ashford on Saturday.
And I head down to stick with the work until bed time with the wind blowing fierce against the windows.
Looks like another indecisive day today, starting cloudy. But the wind’s quieter, by a lot. There are two seagulls taking a walk over the lawn out my bedroom windows. Not sure I’ve ever seen gulls walk on anything but sand before. Or in pairs, but these two appear to be a couple.
We have the adventure park, with escape room today. Most of the adventures seem to be indoors, which is probably good since rain’s coming, at least off and on.
Then it’ll have to be pack it all up as we’ll be on our way to Ashford in the morning.

PS: a random portrait of Colt – who’s having a fine time.
Another PS: a photo from Kat with no explanation, thus #randomkatness
A third PS: I explored the Lake District — descriptions and photos here.
A calm day with all unpleasantness outside. Such an odd visual, the two seagulls. It’s nice to read of everyday things in Ireland, but also nice to know things are continuing in 2061 New York. Have a safe journey.
I use to call weather that couldn’t make up its mind wishy-washy weather. Sounds like you got a solid days work in on your galleys while doing washing and making Kayla soup. Great pictures from Kat and Savanna. I felt like I was there.
I keep thinking of Roarke & Eve whilst you describe your Ireland trip… so maybe not so strange after all to be working on another of their stories…
Love seeing these as this is as close to Ireland as I will ever get thank you
