Fire Up the Dragon

three quintains Husband made an announcement yesterday at five. "I'm NOT going to Disney next week on Spring Break. Back problems do not mix with that long twelve-hour drive, walking theme parks for four days - another mistake." My tail is draggin'; I can't fire up this dragon. Oldest son is delighted, because his girlfriend is invited to take my place, etcetera. Younger son will miss me, and I cannot defend my choice; for six months this has been HIS great hurrah. Four tails are waggin'; they have fired up their dragon. Our daughter and hubby are likewise thrilled indeed that I'm staying home - for that relieves them of care. Five rabbits, two dogs and a bearded dragon need more attention than simply a "wing and a pray'r". I'm not braggin'; but for that, I'll fire up this dragon.
