I had a couple of questions for SD17 about school last weekend, so I asked her to give me a call. That turned into over an hour of chatty talk with SD17, to include the following: "Dad told me that he would be stealing you away for a weekend here and there, so I'll have the house to myself! It'll be glorious! I won't put on pants the entire weekend!

My SD17 is a hoot. I can't wait to join her and DH in Washington state.
