Hi all.  Yes, I know, I am here early for me.  The dogs decided to have a barkfest this morning, so I was up at 6:00.  We got about 5 minutes of pouring rain yesterday but it has been so hot, in the 90&#39;s, that the ground was dry within 2 minutes of it stopping.  Found out that Greg is taking a week off again starting next Friday (not this coming Friday).  I asked him if he was going to take me somewhere, and he said he was thinking of just hanging out.  It was my thought that he did that 2 weeks ago when Beverly and Jud were here from Texas and even though he was on vacation, I was still cooking and cleaning up afterwards, just for more people, so wouldn&#39;t consider that a vacation.  Looks like the cruise in Nov. will be my only vacation this year.  Mary Lou, hope Deb is able to manage the kids overnight and you can get some rest.  I love the sound of children&#39;s laughter and it makes me smile everythime I think about Ashleigh laughing in her sleep.  At least you know she is having good dreams.  Maria, I have never seen Hell&#39;s Kitchen - have seen the commercals though - looks like it can get volatile at times&#33;&#33;&#33;  No big plans for today escept to finish painting my bathroom - I am going to lay a new floor in there and want to get all the painting done first.  Hope all of you have a wonderful day....
