Dale, I think you're getting there! The workaround sounds good.

She still doesn't know about S24 coming along for the trip, right?
She still thinks it's YOU picking her up, along w/grandson, and driving back home?

She's going to sh#t when you show up w/S24, have lunch, and then leave for your business trip! (Trust me guys, I'm a girl...) She may not pitch a fit in front of S24, but she will be pitching one inside! How dare he alter MY plans? How dare he SHUN me? I'm coming home, AREN'T I????

I don't know... I like it.

Be ready for some serious discussions when you return. When do you return home? Will you have access to "us" while gone?

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
