How dino poop can still be found. Just so many things in this world that are amazing. Even to Carl's triplets.

When we were growing up, my Mother never wanted us to miss any school. She would wait until we have a vacation day and schedule appointments for us then. I recall a Christmas vacation, where we went present shopping right after I had a cavity filled. Also a camping trip, where the day before we left for it, she had them remove a huge wart from the bottom of my foot. But I never missed a day of school for those appointments.

My mom was that way in grade school, but she really lightened up when we were in Jr. High. I rode a bus from the Cragmore area of Colorado Springs to North Jr. High. She would send me to school with money and a note to excuse me at 11:00 or so, so that I could walk downtown and catch the matinee at the theatre. I watched Gone With the Wind every time it was the matinee, walked back to the school and caught the activity bus back home. No questions asked.

My Mom became less worried about it, as we got older too. It was one of those if your doing good in school you could take a mental health day off and she wasn't too ticked off. When my kids were in school, I did the same thing.

I agree, pretty sad when we wish for the 90's, but it's alot better than the 100's.

We only got to 101 today. That's about where it's been the last few weeks. Kids like it 'cause they get out of PE!!

It is hot! And it doesn't help that our a/c is a piece of crap :/ My bedroom is at like a constant 85F all day. It sucks.

We had rain two days ago. It wasn't even good rain it was like hot, humid rain.

Yeah 90's is way better. I just wish it would start to cool down already, but I know that's not going to happen until the end of October. My dad has himself so convinced it will cool down within the next two weeks, it's funny

Good Morning . I had too much coffee so I will be unable to stay on the computer for long. I am going to attack some laundry with this chemically induced energy. Leia and Chewy say Hi. Sid is not awake yet, too dark and rainy.

 

[Jacqui]

.... I am going to attack some laundry with this chemically induced energy.

Some laundry, like maybe my laundry? Been putting it off a bit, because that means first I have to cut the weeds from under the clothes line and just not wanting to do that part of it.

I don't think I had enough coffee for that. According to mapquest Nebraska is one day and two hours away from me. I will lose my caffeine buzz by then!!

 

[Jacqui]

Hmmm, but I have heard they sell coffee all along the route, so you could keep the buzz going.

 

[AnthonyC]

Why is it that they'll close a school district but still keep colleges open? Either way I'm coming from the same place. I mean the flood waters don't part just b/c I have grad classes that night!!!

 

[Momof4]

We have power again but no school for the kiddos. I was just getting back into the swing of things!
