It set up perfectly as well. She nailed it.
D- I just finished a book like that as well. Letting great characters go is bitter-sweet.

SonofV has earned the rank of Second Class Scout. It was something of a struggle to get him out of the house at times, but he was bursting with pride when he returned home to tell Tink the news. We're all very excited and happy.

A good friend of mine was in a really horrific wreck about a year ago (bystanders had to pull her semi-conscious out the passenger window of her flaming vehicle.) She escaped relatively unharmed, considering, but among the injuries was a massive hematoma on her forehead. As the wreck was completely and totally not her fault, the other guy's insurance paid her medical bills, but even now there is a lump on her forehead--not generally noticeable to strangers, but compared to pre-accident photos it is obvious--that the doctors say is permanent scar tissue on her skull and will never go away. What's more, these types of bone tissues tend to build up on themselves over time, such that she should expect to need surgery every 5-10 years for the rest of her life to scrape it back down to a reasonable state.

Anyway, long story short, the insurance company was arguing that these would be "cosmetic" procedures and not medically necessary, thus they didn't want to pay for it. She got a lawyer, and they have just now agreed to pay for all future medical costs related to her forehead.

Happy may be a little OTT descriptive-wise, but we finally did our taxes and it only took 2 hours for state and federal. And I'm pleased. We normally get them done early Feb, but we've barely had two minutes to rub together recently, and when we have...well.. who wouldn't take the rubbing together option over tax preparation?

I took the wrong pair of trousers out of the wardrobe today.
I thought they were a little snug around the wait - they've been really loose recently.

Then I realised I was wearing the size 18 instead of the size 20. Yay me
