Weekend Updates

At brunch today with my two youngest sons, I learned my first news about how my youngest daughter is doing at her new school.

That's because they follow her Snapchat page. They said she posted photos of herself laughing with her new friends -- a great sign she is making the transition well.

"That made me happy," said Dylan, as he considered how to approach his plate of huevos rancheros. "I was worried about how her transition would be, having had a number of difficult ones myself."

"It made me happy too," said Aidan. "We should tell Mom."

He too was digging into his huevos rancheros.

Aidan and Zaira are off to Missoula early this coming Thursday, so today as one of our last chances to have a brunch together before *that* transition.

Since Dylan will be the one living at home this fall, he talked with me about some of the things he is going to be helping me with. One is adjusting our cellphone service to save some money. One is to open his own Lyft account. Another is to help me acquire a new laptop, since this ancient model is, in Aidan's words, a "joke."
