Dispatch from Peabody

[lothiriel_1]

I'm home in MA for about a week and a half, which has the basic meaning of "I am not currently at work and therefore I am happy." I made the drive yesterday in 9.5 hours, which is pretty good time. Hit a bit of traffic on the Garden State Parkway, but nothing too rotten.

Weather currently is either just overcast, or overcast and raining. I was a good girl and went for a 30 minute run this morning after breakfast. My challenge during this break is to not slip up on the exercise or Weight Watchers. Seventeen pounds down - about half-way there.

I'm writing this from the public library in Danvers, since, while Mom does have her computer hooked up, she still doesn't have internet service. So she and I are side-by-side at the library, typing away.

Activities to look forward to whilst here at home:

* Playtime with Jen and the boys!
* Whalewatch!
* Sleeping in!
* Dinner with aunt and uncle!
* Lobstah!
* More sleeping in!
* Trip to LL Bean outlet!
* Not working!

Hope everyone's spring is going well!

If you have any free time, you are more than welcome to come visit us in our new place.

I would dearly LOVE to, but, as usual, my time home has pretty much been scheduled for me. Meh. I do plan to make another visit home over the holidays, so I will definitely let the maternal unit know that I may have other friends to visit with. :)

Garden State Parkway? You drove right past!

And believe you me, I would have stopped if I wasn't in such an all fired hurry to just get through that area. I drive back south next Sunday (the 7th) - I'll give you a call when I'm on the road.

How far are you from the Parkway/NJ Pike?

Not sure I never drive on it myself but I think it's not too far. I'll check on a map.
