Not working, but DH is.
Me, I'm staying indoors, hugging the a/c and avoiding random, celebratory gunfire.

I'm not working tomorrow, thank God...
Hub and I wanted to fly the Union Jack on the side of the house but thought better of it.
So we will be celebrating our decision to go back to the UK.
Ironically.

Sheila's choosing to work tomorrow so she can use the vacation day for when we go to the UK in a few weeks.

I get to stay home and paint the front porch! Oh joy!

Not working because I'm off for the whole summer..... Hubs doesn't work either, although he's on call - but wouldn't normally work it.

Not working but no plans. Might go to a movie as Jim and I both liked "Mama Mia" and want to see the movie which has been released. Would love to have a picnic and see the fireworks over the Hudson but Jim isn't one for crowds for haven't done that since we were married 10 yrs ago

Hibby returns home from business trip tonight so we'll be "busy" later
Then off to see fireworks in Fort Worth tomorrow night after BBQ with the kids. My 13 yr old son wants to buy some fireworks ( I hate the thought of him blowing a hand off) so I've got him a packet of sparklers, I'm sure he'll be suitably impressed
