As usual, your hospitality was very much appreciated &#8212; though we really didn&#8217;t see much of each other!<\/p>\n<p>I would arrive home about 8pm and you and your partner went to bed at 8:30 or 9 at the latest.  Fortunately, I could spend time with you in the morning before I left for my meetings.  Thanks for cooking breakfast for me each morning.<\/p>\n<p>Despite as busy as we both are, I appreciated what time I did have with you.  You&#8217;re still &#8220;doing your thing&#8221; &#8212; caring for your senior friends, your partner, and dealing with those community affairs while working more than full time.  I don&#8217;t know how you do it all.<\/p>\n<p>I enjoyed seeing the family for the usual Friday night family dinner.  It was great.  Man, our little ones are growing up so fast!  I am very happy that most made a special effort to come since I was visiting.  It&#8217;s not often I get to see 70 members of our family in one place for a happy reason.<\/p>\n<p>Well, that&#8217;s it for this post.  Keeping it short, as I have plane to catch which will bring me back home to Paris by the time this post appears on your blog.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks again &#8212; see you in August when I have  month to spend with you!<\/p>\n<p>Ore e sempre,<\/p>\n<p>J<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guest blog by BHD&#8217;s twin brother, J Thanks, bro, for letting me stay at your home while I had to attend meetings in Washington, DC, this past week.
