Well, I’m not giving up on everyone else yet! There are a few hours left, and it’s no fun if I’m the only one playing the game. 😦

I know how you feel. I’m going to try to get one whipped out after I get the kids in bed. It will be cutting it close, but that’s what I get for flying by the seat of my pants and not planning ahead. haha It is David’s week, so there’s that possibility!
