That was a Day

Her old apartment was on the second floor. Her new apartment is on the third floor. So many stairs.

If today’s events had happened a year ago, pre gastric bypass, I probably would have died of a massive heart attack by lunch time. I was very pleased that I got to help Bellana in a time of need. I’m also very pleased that I was physically able to pull it off without dropping dead. That felt good, though I’m in tons of pain tonight and I’ll probably sleep until dinner time tomorrow and tonight’s very late dinner gave me the foamies and I’ll probably need another hour to recover.

I wish Jen had been with me, but outside of that it was a really good day.

Return Trip

Weren’t we in Burlington, VT just the other day?

Why yes, yes we were. And tomorrow, I’m going back. My step daughter needs help with something and I’m dropping everything and running to her aide.

So Friday through Monday in Vermont, then Friday in Vermont, and next week we’ll have Thursday in Vermont as well. Sounds like a lot of driving for ol’ Robbie, dontcha know!

I love it!

Kinda Bummed

I just e-checked in for my doctors appointment tomorrow morning. I also e-checked in for my doctors appointment on Thursday morning. They are both at 8:15am. What the fuck was I thinking? The Thursday appointment notes say I can drink clear liquids before the appointment but I can’t eat anything.

Bummer.

Two doctors appointments this week. Two doctors appointments next week too. Again, what the fuck was I thinking?

In an unrelated note, Lily is showing a tremendous amount of affection toward my beloved bride, Jennifer right now and and I am very happy about it. So is she. No bummer there, no sir.

Packing Up

Graduation road trip weekend is coming to a close. I’ve been packing up our stuff and loading up the car. Harry went home with his dad yesterday so it’s just me and Jen and Nana this time.

Bellana is coming to the hotel to have breakfast with us. Bonus time! After that we will check out and head South.

All in all it was a great weekend, celebrating Bellana and her fellow UVM graduates. Congratulations to the class of 2023!

I’M SO PROUD

Commencement

I’ll replace this with a higher resolution image later, but that’s her, getting her diploma from the college of arts and sciences biochem department.

Commencement

Commencement

The University of Vermont Commencement ceremony is taking place right now. They are conferring the degrees as I write this.

Bellana will officially be a college graduate any minute now!!!

University of Vermont

Both of my step kids are students at the University of Vermont. My step son gave us a quick tour of some of one campus while leading us to my step daughter’s ceremony of the day.
