W just sent me an e-mail inquiring about a beach house for several weeks during the summer in lieu of camp for the kids and our usual vacation. I don't know if we can afford it, but her plan is to go with the kids during the week while I join them for long weekends. At least I'm in the plans.
For her birthday, W got tix for a Broadway show for her and the kids. Other families will go with them and she asked me to join them for dinner in Times Square.
I think I'll just get her a simple funny type card, but not one from husband to wife. I may even sign it "Love," but certainly not ILY. The show and dinner will be her gift, although I could add a small-dollar gift certificate from the kids and I.
Lee-I don't want to forget you and I'll have to check your sitch tonight.
Karen-I'm just starting RCIA with the "inquiry" phase with an expectation of completing the process next easter. When I told W, she said I should go to another parish!
Briget--Any recommendations for somne nice lotions and oils??
