Being the moving story of a family of four (chronologically a Man, a Woman, a Girl and a Boy) adapting from life in a small English village to the strange New World of upstate New York...

Dashing through the snow
Ten inches in all, we reckon. The snow had stopped by lunchtime, leaving the Man with a nice lot of shovel-work.
The afternoon was hectic. The Man had to be taken to work, the Girl had to be picked up from her sleepover and transferred to a Girl Scout meeting, and in the meantime 36 homemade cookies had to materialize from somewhere for a Girl Scout project. Then I had to get myself into Albany (and find a parking place in the snow) because my refugee friends were once again celebrating all their four kids' birthdays at once. Then after that I rushed (carefully, on slushy roads) back to collect the Girl, and then I was straight into preparing dinner for a friend who is here on business from England...
With the dinner made, though...phew...the evening was much more relaxed and very enjoyable.
