Hitting the road

Tomorrow morning Sam and I head out for our 'road trip'. The trip is built from the basic request Sam had to "just drive, and sleep in the car." We'll take the back seats out of the RAV4 and add foam and sleeping bags. Should be great fun. We are both very excited. Sam is so excited that he was trying to convince me to leave tonight --"we'll just drive for a couple of hours and then sleep somewhere." I managed to talk him down from that ledge of enthusiasm. We'll leave in the morning. We will take lots of pictures and come back Monday in time to collect Catherine from the airport at around midnight.

Grumpy Old Woman

I was reading my copy of More (a magazine for women over 40) last night in the bath and imagine my horror at the three page spread on how to apply leg makeup. I mean, really. It's bad enough trying to patch over the dark eye circles and sun spots on the face, but now, I'm supposed to make up my legs too!
