On the very first day of summer break, even before breakfast, the first words out of Caitlin's mouth this morning were:
"I'm bored!"*
It's gonna be a loooooong summer.
* I'm not even kidding. You can't make this stuff up!
Where's the pause button on this thing?

Oh dear.
well let's see - there are weeds to be pulled, dishes to wash, compost to turn, birds, cats, and other small animals to feed and watch; books to read, birthday party to plan - maybe she could start making decorations; and if that's not enough - her aunti has some weeds also, maybe a couple of rooms to paint - I'd be willing to pay her in visits to the Museum(s) of her choice, possibly a ride up to Canada, or some such diversion, but she'd have to come to NY.
Scott: I'm not allowed to say the "s" word. Bugger.
Val: Yup.
Dawn: If I could suggest ANY of those things without her having a major fit, I would. However, we are currently living in IRRATIONAL TANTRUM WORLD!
Life sucks here.
In other new, I may be perimenopausal. I think I'm going to die.
Also, if YOU pay for tickets to NY, I will put her on a plane to you for the summer. I am not kidding.
Yes, send her to Dawn then I'll bring her up here too! She can come chill out w/ the East Coasters!
Dan would have a cow, he'd be so excited!
Still waiting to hear back from you about the tentative plans for Caitlin's summer vacation.
