Oh Shawn, I'm so sorry. I wish I was there to give you and your wife hugs. Our family is praying for our new nephew who came into this world last week under emergency circumstances. He has a hole in his heart, but was a good weight and is doing well, so far.
The heat is on here too. Spent time at the pool this weekend, but with baseball(All-Stars) practices we spent lots of time at the diamonds. Games start tonight and go through Wednesday. It's supposed to cool off after that, of course!
Oh Shawn - I'm so very sorry. My heart and prayers go out to you and your wife (and your family).
thanks d - I'm use to the weekned thing. But this is them going off on a plane for vacation and I'm not really happy about it!
Silver - I completely agree with you, the problem was he didn't.
We've got the heat now! Thank heavens I was able to get the A/C (the WHOLE unit) replaced on friday and it works. I've been doing the same thing, window shades closed, doors closed all to try to help keep it cooler.
Ok folks - we are in the count down to 2 Potter events! My girls and I can't wait for the movie and book - there will be some tusseling over that book in this house!

-- we lost the baby due to a miscarraige (sp?) - wife is fine (physically) -- no 14th grandbaby for my mom (16th counting my little sis' stepkids)
-- I really miss my 5 (3 at home still) babies (ok kids) being babies.....
--well at least working on our Family Game Night kickoff events (website and such) and finishing up my MSCA/MSCE (the chef assistant and catering was just too non schedule friendly or regular)but the testing help material ('specially the video sections is sooooo BBBOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRing) and with the 3 kids hitting the YMCA (them and family in the pool and me in the weightroom) and waterpark is keeping me sane and busy.
stay cool, stay safe, stay dry (for all you floodees), watch out for wildfires (here in the West)
-- see you all in August (or therebouts) Love to all

Oh Crazy--sorry--I used to say that if my hubby and I split up it would mean I'd at least get weekends off...but that is a very flippant retort to what I'm sure is a tough emotional time. It is terrific they have active dad participation though don't you think?
We had heat, heat, heat these past 3 days and with baseball tournaments and being outside it has taken a lot of air out of our sails. I've even kept the curtains drawn to keep the house cooler. Hopefully this week will get beter. The brown grass is pitiful....
Glad to see a least a couple of folks alive and kicking...
