hm, I think that researching fantasy Tuscan vacations is NOT a good way to stay motivated for the comparatively mundane tasks at hand.
Did you get lured in by the Globe's travel section too?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I just paid a kid to mow my lawn. that felt very strange. but good. Neigbor K was outside when I got home. Neighbor is obssesed by lawns . And I said something about ours needing mowing. so he said his kids would do it for 5 bucks ( tiny CA lawn) - they also did the back lawn - so I gave the kids 8 . They did a really good job. they edgged as well as mowed. Dad has taught them well. It was kinda nice to see them thrilled with the money.

They're eeevil. It's not like I don't already desperately want to take a trip to Italy. No need for them to make it worse.

Well, if you can't get to Tuscany today, get thee outside. We've got as close to a perfect New England summer day out there as we've had all summer. It ain't gonna last (unless Emily took all the nassssty weather with her to Frisco).

I did mention that it is beautiful here today, not Tuscany beautiful, but the best weather we have had all summer. Sadly I think my outdoor plans today consist mainly of going to the market.
