You are simply wonder woman in my book!!! I am constantly amazed at how you juggle so many things in your life, i.e running a company, managing the estate of Dennis, 42 people coming for dinner, etc.
That is so touching regarding your D20 missing you! My D17 has been reaching out and communicating with me for a change which I have let her know I appreciate. She says she just wants to stay connected to what is going on back here while she is at school. Nice to know our kids appreciate and miss us almost as much as we miss them!
Hope the allergies get better for you - it has been brutal here in DC for me as well. This is the only place I have lived where I have had allergy issues. Not sure what it is around here, but something definitely makes my eyes water up and itch like crazy! Looking forward to the fall when it dies down AND the friggin mosquitos go away too. Tired of getting eaten alive when I go outside.
