Are the kids driving you crazy at home? Or maybe they're driving the librarians up the bookshelves. (They’re not babysitters; you realize this?) Here’s an idea: WAYA. As in the West Austin Youth Association. Cheap memberships and more than 30 different sports and activities for every age group. Sign up the whole family for a season on the softball fields; maybe even volunteer yourself. Why not? We can’t promise the kids will be too tired to raise Cain, but they will be out of the house long enough for you to take an afternoon nap.
