Hah Shakespr- I am way, way ahead of you. Both he and my niece are in the service (he’s a West Pointer and she did ROTC at Princeton says the proud aunt), and I have noticed a distinct pattern that they both time their visits right about the time some difficult training ends. I am more than delighted to protect my favorite aunt status by feeding and pampering them both. While their mother (my sister) is a Paleo diet devotee, I am still willing to feed them sugar and carbs. However, since you say this training is extra difficult I might make him three german chocolate cakes instead of the standard two - just as long as he helps me move my spare refrigerator.
I’m glad you are looking forward to sunnier times. The rain is certainly falling right now, but you’ve always struck me as someone who will make it through- one way or the other.
