A Cold Morning

We woke up to no heat or hot water this morning due to the pilot light having gone out on our boiler. Not a great way to start the day.... something was actually broken, so Josh quickly called a repair guy and he was here and had the problem fixed by 10 a.m. That was pretty darn fast and efficient! Not much else going on today... Max headed off to school because he was feeling quite a bit better and it was his last day before their 2 week break. I had coffee with a friend and Coco and I took a long walk in the gorgeous 55 degree day. Tonight, I am going to a ladies' potluck.... I was invited by this American woman that I met in February through mutual friends. She actually grew up in New Orleans where she attended a French-speaking school, she then worked in Paris for a few years before marrying a French guy. She has now lived here for more than 20 years and her children only speak French. She calls herself American but..... Anyway, when her kids were babies, she gathered a group of English-speaking women together to create a playgroup. Their children are all now way past the playgroup stage but they still get together once in awhile to speak English. Beth invited me to join them this evening, so off I go!
Quincy comes home from skiing in the morning! I can't wait to see him and hear about his adventures in the Alps! We have all really missed him. Tabitha even admitted that this evening!
