We have a trip planned to the mountains of New Mexico for late August. We try to go somewhere cool about that time every year to get a break from the heat. It will likely be sometime in October before we see 61 again...as the low, not high temp of the day. :P

The grandsons are 8, 3, & 18 months, so we've got several years to go before all are in school. All is not lost however, since my daughter has agreed to give her mom a little help starting in the fall by sending the two youngest to a grandmom's day out program two days a week. I think my daughter has determined it's better to do that than have her mother suffer from total mental and physical exhaustion, have a breakdown and be institutionalized. You familiar with Lynette's three wild boys on "Desperate Housewives"? That'll give you some idea of what grandma is dealing with.
