Sept. 17 - Lisa's Musings (on traditions) and Every Day Life

TGIF.

And, for the first time in a long time, I'll have company for the weekend.

Little brother, Eric, is flying in tonight from New Jersey to go to the U-M football game tomorrow. So, I'll be heading to the airport to pick him up and, yeah, take him back on Sunday.

The family always gets together for at least one game each year, then heads to Webber's afterward for dinner.

Last year, it was to celebrate (or memorialize depending on how you look at it) my dad's life.

This year, things will be quite different.

It will be a much smaller group. Four of the cousins, Eric and I.

We'll have a little Big Sister-Little Brother bonding time. The two of us have never gone to a game together. It was always my dad and I.

And one of the cousins decided he didn't want to go to Webber's -- he wanted to try some place else.

So, since I live here, I was tapped to come up with an alternate place.

It didn't take long. Who doesn't love Knights?

New season.

New restaurant.

New traditions.

Sometimes change is good.
