Life and Project 365

Eeekkks! I find myself behind again on posting my Picture a Day project.  Work has been crazy busy and by time I get home most nights I’m collapsing in front of the tv, watching the US Open lately, or just staring at whatever is on the screen. Before I get farther afield let’s catch up some.  Matt and I had a great day a couple weeks weeks ago in Boston. We started our day at Revere Beach. It was a beautiful beach, the water felt great and there were these huge seagulls that stalked you for your food. LOL  This group was eyeballing us while we ate our lunch. That guy nearest the camera eventually made a surprise attack from behind and grabbed up most of my roast beef sandwich. Good thing I had some scallops too! hehe My picture of the say had to be the beach. It was a bit of a tough call as we spent time in Boston as well but we’d never been to Revere Beach so…After wandering the beach and boardwalk some more after lunch we got ourselves to the T to head into the city. We were able to spend some time walking the waterfront of the Charles River on the Cambridge side and I captured some nice views of the skyline. We continued along over the Longfellow Bridge and enjoyed wandering along the Esplanade. I love catching artists at work. By later afternoon clouds were rolling in. We were grateful to have had such beautiful sunshine on the beach and enough sunshine in the city. The next day we woke to rain and there would be no cooking out as we’d been enjoying all summer since getting our deck. It seemed like a harbinger of autumn and the next day the temps dropped. It was chilly enough to make a pot of coffee in the evening, something we’d not been doing for months it seemed with all the hot weather we’d been having. As I mentioned work’s been keeping me busy during the week and we’d still been having some car issues so that kept me home most nights as well. My picture of the day here was a real exciting evening doing my nails. Hey a girl’s gotta have a little pampering right? It was my evening with Crystal and Kevin. We got grinders for us all(including Matt who popped on his supper break from work) from a local pizza place and they brought the entertainment, a movie from their Netflix, “The Hangover”. The three of us loved it, laughing over many of the lines and scenes. The food was good too! Usually I’m heading off to Northampton on nice Friday evenings after work, but I had to run an errand in the next town over on a Thursday. Coming home through Northampton while stopped at a light I decided I had to stop at a little neighborhood grocery store for one of their amazing sandwiches for supper. Serio’s has been a family run mainstay in Northampton since 1902. They have an amazing butcher/deli counter and I got me their Paisano. Grabbing a frappucino at Starbucks, I headed for Pulaski Park to enjoy a late summer early evening. I couldn’t finish it all and ended up taking some home for Matt to have a taste. The end of the week and I was ready to just relax at home after work. On the couch with my book. I know, I’m still behind but getting there and will share more real soon. Had some fun weekend plans that I’ve touched on some and will share more of.
