I am so enjoying Eric coming to life ... Having become accustomed to traveling to Leominster on the train, something once akin to a trek into the Australian Outback. He visits regularly with a friend other than his lads. There are plans for sorely needed updates to his cottage amenties. Giving rise to worried thought of possibly entertaining a luncheon guest. His ever busier social calendar has him accepting an invitation to a neighbor's housewarming with a plus one, as well as planning to attend a wedding, his first ever I think. He's updated his everyday wardrobe and purchased smart new clothes for his upcoming social events ... Oh how life has changed.
