Today is Valentine’s Day and all my boys have gone berserk.
I am here in my house in New Jersey with 2 sons and a cat. I am far away from my 2 younger children who are visiting their father’s house in the Black Forest of Germany for 2 months while I sort things out at home before traveling to the University of Puerto Rico to give lectures for 3 weeks.
Here in New Jersey, snow is on the ground and everything is damp, damp and so cold the tip of my nose freezes when I go outside to move the trash cans from the curb to the side of the house.
Two days ago, Andy asked me to buy Valentine’s candy for his girlfriend, for story click here
