A Year Ago This Weekend, I Presided Over the Wedding of Justin & Juliet. Yesterday, I Attended Their Baby Shower. Things Move Fast.

The wedding last year was beautiful and the shower yesterday was just as nice. I don't think I've ever gone to a baby shower, but there's a first for everything. I was drawn for a good Italian meal at Via Sforza on the edge of Norwalk and Westport. Best Penne Vodka I ever had and the bread...well, I brought two loaves home. Delicious.

And their new boy will be loaded with shoes, onesies, bunnies, and green-colored everything. It truly was an amazing celebration of life, happiness, and the continuation of our beings. Of course, Justin will be finishing his doctorate this year, too. 

Nothing sits still.

Including the incessant, over the top, barbaric allergy season of nose drips, dry hacks, ear aches, and sinus pressure. Cynde reminds me that I get this way every year, but how quickly I forget that pollen and my head are not friends.

Today is Sunday and there is one more gathering at my house this afternoon for the couple, who'll have to endure Karal, too. It comes with the territory.

Happy Sunday. Hope the sun stays out.
