The last thing I was excited about, well that’s simple. Harry came home for a week. He had an appointment at an auto body place in Salem so he came home and stayed with us while his car was being worked on. Having him come home for an unexpected visit was the last thing I was really excited about. He’s back home in Vermont now but his car is still in the shop. We’ll get to see him sometime next week when he comes back to swap the rental car for his actual car. That won’t be much of a visit, but I am pretty excited about that too.
How about a few honorable mentions, just to make the writing exercise last a smidge longer?
I was excited about going to Bar Harbor a couple of weekends ago. Both because it was a long weekend get away with the love of my life, but also because my step daughter Bellana went with us. I was super excited about that plan as I am always excited about travel plans. Also, that last sentence is what we call a transition sentence and I guess it’s also technically foreshadowing as well.
Speaking of travel plans (see what I did there?), the next thing to get excited about is another long weekend get away. This time it’s Disney World. A few weeks from now Jen and I are going to fly down to Orlando on Wednesday night and come back after a few days. Two nights ago while on a very lovely dinner date at a Greek restaurant, Jen looked at me and said, out of nowhere, “I am really excited about Florida.”* I agreed wholeheartedly. I still do.
*That may not be an exact quote, even though I wrote it as if it were. You get the gist at least.
