I am going to a friends for a cookout later today. D17 is supposed to be going to her Dad's (of course, something I instigated since he wouldn't think of it!). Last night I cooked myself a steak, had a glass of wine, and just enjoyed dinner for the first time in a long time. It was even ok being alone! Guess I have come a long way from the 4th of July 2007.
