Ok, I thought of another thing that is good about V coming home later than we'd hoped - she'll get to wear her welcome home to Texas outfit after all! It won't be as hot as it would have been this summer.

I'm pretty sure it will still fit her.

Oh and another thing (since I'm digging here trying to find good things) - the airfares will be cheaper if we don't travel in summer.

Of course, if the miracle did happen to occur, I'd happily bring her home naked (V, not me !) and pay thousands and thousands of dollars to fly over there to do it!

Now, back to folding my mountain of laundry, and sporadically checking to see if Elle and Suzanne have heard anything yet!

till later . . .
