Yesterday, after doing neat things at a Food Truck and Music Festival organized neatly by Quincy, Massachusetts, my boyfriend Michael and I noticed this neat book at a nearby coffee shop:

Here’s one of the neat photos in that book:

When I organize my photographs as neatly as possible for this daily blog, I often have pictures of hearts (as well as other things that are meaningful to me). Today’s neatly organized things include an homage to my late mother, who was well known for organizing things neatly and whom I especially miss during this time of the year.























What are people thinking about those things organized neatly?
Phillip Alexander & the Wild Things (which included a musician from my neatly organized hometown of Swampscott) played this neatly organized song:
That neatly organized building in the background is the Thomas Crane Public Library, by the amazingly neat architect H.H. Richardson.
Here are a few more things organized neatly:
- My boyfriend Michael is now my fiancé Michael (which I’ve been hinting at with some neatly organized clues in recent posts).
- I wish that my neatly organized mother and my neatly hilarious father could have met my neat and hilarious fiancé.
- Michael meets two of the criteria I neatly organized for a husband when I was ten years old: he loves cats and tuna noodle casserole.
- Actually, Michael might like rather than love tuna noodle casserole, but he makes a neatly organized tuna noodle casserole that’s at least as good as the tuna noodle casserole made by my neatly organized mother.
I look forward to some neatly organized comments, below.
As always, I end with some neatly organized gratitude to all who help me create these daily blogs, including YOU.
A neatly organised Congratulations from me, and didn’t those children have a great time with the singing and clapping!
Thank you for this very neat comment, Peter!
Congratulations on starting the process of organizing a marriage! You and Michael have long had a place for each other in your lives and I think it’s neat that you’re getting married. What am I saying? Whoopie!
