Thank you

To Waffles, for keeping me updated on various shoe-related matters. The links are appreciated. Though how you find them is beyond me.

To my kids, who still want to hug me, even when I'm buried in accounting night after night.

To my au pair, who never has to be told what needs to be done.

To Nana Judy for your hospitality . . . looking forward to coming to see you.

And finally, in these days of my terrible cold, where my nose and my lips are dry and chapped . . .

Thanks to the Carmex-fairy who managed to leave me a brand new pot of Carmex in the bathroom, in my bedroom, and in my car . . . she must be working with the "updated-insurance-card" fairy who left my new proof of insurance in my car too.

Love those fairies.

Respectfully submitted,

The Wife
