The new job means I spend a lot of time flicking back and forth between looking a short distance away and looking very close up. This meant I was constantly taking my glasses on and off. So, I bit the bullet and got bifocals. They are progressives and will take some getting used to. Also, they are purple.
A sea of poinsettias. And this was just one row! There were two more just like it. That’s a whole lot of plants.
In an effort to stop myself from dropping one egg, I managed to drop this one instead. Dammit.
Found at work today. And for those who can’t read Kid fluently, allow me to translate:

I found this leaf weeks ago, and have been meaning to take a photo of it ever since. But I couldn’t decide what kind of photo to take. Today, inspiration struck.
One of the local municipal lots is having some work done on it later this week, so they’ve removed all the parking meters. I got free parking for my chiropractor appointment today…woo hoo!
It’s been a while since I made my famous (infamous?) finger cookies. I hope my new coworkers enjoy them….
Newton’s City Council is far too large. There are 8 wards, and each has 1 ward councillor, and 2 at-large councillors. Everyone can vote for all the at-large councillors, but only ward residents can vote for the ward councillor. Anyway, it’s 24 people (Boston has 12), and it amazes me that anything ever gets done.
In the parking garage at new Workplace. A whole bunch of tables and chairs. Not sure if they belong to Workplace (there are other places that use the garage), but they definitely caught my eye.
