It won't happen, but that's not going to stop me from trying. If I aim for down time, chances are I'll get a bit of down time amid all the kids' fun. Did I procure the Pass of All Passes when it was a great deal? Nope. I'm not a fan of crowds, but I'm not exactly agoraphobic either. I've got some cool stuff in mind that will take me and the kids away from my self-imposed time out. I don't even have to come up with this stuff. Sue's done all the planning for me. (This is why I love my internet friends.)
Andy gets to stay put -- he's got a new(ish) job with exactly no time off. Am I jealous? (Maybe.)
My boys already think it's summer, yet they have one more pesky week of school to endure. There's been a picnic, a BBQ, a swim party and even a fishing trip with Grandpa. Who needs Disneyland when you can hold a slimy fish with your finger?
