If hubby is working, grab some donuts, coffee, and start sewing! Maybe a bag of M&M's instead of donuts.....hard choice...LOL

Like Honey, I'll be gardening... if it doesn't rain.

If it rains... I'll take DD for a full day shopping trip. Probably mostly looking with a little buying. She's grown so fast we have "wardrobe issues"... any other moms of teens will probably know instinctively just what I mean.

We will also take in some of the "Freedom" events. My DD has become a lot more interested in the last year. A year ago she won the State Am. Legion Oratorical and was one of the top 9 at Nationals. This year she won the State VFW - VOD speech contest and competed at Nationals. She has learned a lot about both organizations and has a whole new appreciation for those who sacrificed for us! Thanks to all!

I may wander out to the local RenFaire - it's their last weekend open for this year. Then I may see if it's really ok to wander over to a co-worker's house to hang out in his pool. (he has an invite open, but I like to check before just showing up)
