Danita, it's pretty funny how possessive the kids can be of your time, huh? My kids reached a certain age when they were out of the house all the time, but were downright OFFENDED if I didn't sit at home and wait for them to need me all day. They'd come home at midnight and want to talk to me, and I could barely keep my eyes open. Then they'd sleep until noon and will have missed my most active time of day--early morning.

I'm looking forward to empty next, even if I just stay home and work in the garden. [Smile]
