Busy Week

By Joe

I have a very busy week ahead and am not looking forward to any of it. I have tours, extra classes, a luncheon event, and Botox. I rarely have more than one of these things each week, but all of this means I won’t be able to have a work from home day this week. I’m just trying to stay calm and carry on.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day.☘️ Traditionally, at least where I’m from, people wear green today. St. Patrick’s Day is a bigger event up north than it is down south, although there may be celebrations in New Orleans, which had a lot of Irish immigrants. I think New York and Boston have major events. There is even a parade in Vermont. The holiday is generally seen as a day for Irish pride. 

My week may be busy, but I hope all of you have a wonderful week!

I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's. My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces. View all posts by Joe

    Joe, St Patrick’s Day was celebrated yesterday (Sunday) with a huge parade in London followed by a big festival at Trafalgar Square. Today the Princess of Wales, the Royal Honorary Colonel of the Irish Guards) will present them with the shamrock at a formal military parade at I think Wellington Barracks near Green Park.
