Glitter

We had our “tenant appreciation breakfast” this morning at work. We had a new caterer, and everything was very pretty, but the glitter was a bit much. As one of my coworkers said, it looked like a unicorn had been using our elevator.

Typewriter

This is my grandfather’s typewriter, purchased new in 1934. My grandmother continued to use it through the 1980s. It still works, though it could use a good cleaning (which I’ll give it) and the rollers underneath the platen have hardened and developed flat spots so paper does not feed smoothly.

Done (*)

Newly renovated Old City Hall in Quincy will have its public dedication tomorrow.  Today they installed a whole lotta sod and sent home a huge number of lifts, cranes, and other construction equipment.

(*) The exterior seems to be done. I’m told there’s still a significant punchlist for the interior.
