Well, hello, sweetie! How are you doing this afternoon?

Yes, 7 or more page but we are NOT keeping score. I'm trying very hard not to break posts up into many pieces.

Spurrier, not Charlie, that is.

Morning Charlie!

Good morning.

OK, so where should I go: Skyline Drive or Catoctin? Skyline is further but offers more, but Catoctin has a great apple orchard, and is close to Gettysburg. No work tomorrow, so getting back late is not an issue.

Not necessarily. What is your relationship?

with the child you mean?

his mother is my cousin but I don't see why is that relevant?

Just wondering how you came to be there -- family obligations. No, you are not a bad person, unless you slapped them all in front of the kids.

that's funny

see.... here's how I'm thinking....

I have two toddlers, lots of motherly stuff I'm doing of course... I just want some relaxing/intelligent/interesting/funny not related to children talk with other women... but that's actually extremely rare

No, you are not a bad person. Why would you think so?

A woman is not bad just because she doesn't like to be around or talk about children all the time.

I can tolerate a very select few little kids, and even then, generally only one or two at a time. I was just never a "kid" person. I always said we were lucky I managed to love my OWN kids, never mind anyone else's.

But the weird thing is, I'm kinda starting to get the grandmother bug now. I have a couple of grand-nephews and I LOVE playing g'mother to them!
But neither of my kids is even married yet (and I don't want them to rush!!), so it'll be a while.
Besides, I only want BOY grandbabies. I like baby boys more than girls. Girls are too...girly.

I understand, completely. So, after the party and put up with the bragging moms, you come here. I'm sure Lenny & Sharon will be more than happy to talk seriously with you. I would too, but I'm not a woman. If you want something a bit less public, try the conversation mode.

Is one a place you might be more likely to get to WITHOUT a full day off? Or is there one you go to less often?

Full day off isn't an issue - we are off on Mondays for Alternate Work Schedule.
I haven't been to either in quite a while. It will be only me going, so I'll probably just take some photos, enjoy the scenery and come back home. I'll probably go to Catoctin this trip and save Skyine for when the family can go along.
