Sun is just peaking through the clouds at 11:20 am as I am getting ready to head out for Groton. Kiddo has a half day this Tuesday for parent teacher conferences. I think we'll go to lunch at Pizza Palace and bowl a few strings. If the sun stays out we may just practice dribbling and shooting! And speaking of dribbling and shooting I roped eldest child into filling out a NCAA March Madness bracket sheet just for kicks. I miss not taking part in the madness at KHS and my favorite lounge doesn't bother with setting up some kind of money madness so I had to force a play. Gives me more incentive to pay attention to the games. But I know that if and when UCONN falls from grace I'll be crest fallen. Mais, c'est la vie. Et c'est intéressant quand même.
The oil man just came and ruined my day: $3.78 a gallon. This is preposterous. It's more expensive than gas. Puppy's Pop has tightened up the cottage quite a bit; we're using less oil than in previous years yet the bill is killing us. At least the poor guy said he really liked the Ponti which I had left in the yard after I deposited the refund check from the grand old government. So I guess some good came of his visit. Hope Grampa is playing well at horseshoes in East Hartford. I know he'll snack well on the way home at the Hop River Café.
