1. Scarlet started Summer Camp '09 and it seems wonderful. Cool/caring staff and a summer full of kid fun and field trips. Woo-hoo!!!
2. My mom watched the kiddies so I could join my Book Club lasses. An intimate gathering with yummy treats, sensational chats and thoroughly amazing women. Love 'em. Book-Foxfire. I recommend.
Worst Part of the Day-
Found out that Will-O's aunt, Katy, died yesterday in her sleep. A bit of a shock as she was not ill, per se. She was 80, but spry, funny, theatrical and always in a good mood. Liam LIVED for her as she would completely and totally engage the little bittles. She was a kid lover who would get down on her hands and knees and act like a silly monster or a crazy dog. Katy has lived with Will-O's mom for 10 years so this will be a great change. She will be missed, but never forgotten.
Fun Katy Memory-
At an O'Neill cousin wedding this past February, amidst the toasts and stories of the bride/groom's 20 something friends, 79 year-old Katy waltzed up to the microphone and belted out a show tune that I think she may have made up or at least ad libbed the lyrics that really didn't have anything to do with the bride or groom or the wedding. Priceless. And ballsy. Love it.
