Thanks Sharon! You've hit the nail on the head. I too feel as if I've missed the whole summer with the kids.

My dfil has had some health issues too and we have been helping him out as much as we can. We actually spent a portion of our vacation (at his summer home) straitening out some of his financial stuff.

I'm gonna mix up that margarita in a few minutes! Yum! And here's to NEXT summer!!!
