Throw in a little babysitting and it looks like a busy day.   We actually cranked up the grill and cooked some baby-back ribs last night - boy were they tasty.  It was a bit too cool for eating outside but those days are coming  and I can&#39;t wait.<br /><br />Ed - glad to hear Crazie has arrived safely.   Try and keep her out of the Casinos til you leave.  Enjoy your leadership meetings.<br /><br />Karla - That was a funny story about the microwave and your DD.   She will learn once she is married. My DD can cook but doesn&#39;t simply because her DH enjoys cooking plus he works nights so if he has dinner ready when she gets home from work they at least get to eat together.   My DIL on the other hand does not know how to cook and has no interest in learning at all.   Drives me nuts but my DS has become an excellent cook out of necessity.  He however hates to clean up after his kitchen messes and she does a bang-up job there.  The cooking school sounds like so much fun.   <br /><br />Steve - have fun on your riding mower.   Jim just loves his - he&#39;s like a little kid on Christmas morning with it.   Don&#39;t worry my house will not get messed up in the next few days.   Once I get it cleaned I become a PIA according to Jim.   <br /><br />Cheryl - hope you were able to get sleep last night.   <br /><br />Rose - hope all is well.  I&#39;m sure you are very busy but the end of the rush is in sight.<br /><br />Time to get the laundry going and start my day.  I&#39;ll be back later on to see how everyone is doing.  In the meantime, make today special.    <br /><br /><br /><br />
