And suddenly I'm filled with dread.

They would hide--I mean, play--with parts and try to climb into the %&$* thing while I was trying to put it together. I absolutely hated it. I only wish I'd realized that wine (not whine) was the solution to the problem. Luckily, they do outgrow this phase...a bit. That is, you only need to ask them 8 gazillion times to wait until you're finished instead of 1600 gazillion times. Progress is incremental.

I remember summers in Miami in much the same way. Relentlessly sunny but horrifically hot and all of us shut up together looking for indoor activities and another bottle of rum to prepare the fifteenth mojito of the day. Can't say I miss that or the hurricane preparations but now that we're in New England we have whole winters to contend with and we've switched to Scotch...on the rocks, all business. Ahhh, yes.
