1. I devoted a great deal of time fulfilling the requirements of Henry's school supply list this year. I knew that his elementary school had a program where they buy the supplies for you, but details were sketchy, so I didn't sign up. Today as I was weeding through his Kindergarten papers, deciding what we would save, and what we could part with, I found the flier regarding the "School supplying school supplies program." All of the instructions, including a detailed list of what they would buy for me were there -- all I had to do was flip over the page. I hope they do it next year. I'm totally signing up. We went to four stores looking for plastic folders with three prongs in red, blue, yellow, green and purple.
2. On the way home from PT today the brake light and two other nasty little indicator lights went on. After consulting the manual which said something like, "get your car to the dealer immediately, and don't forget your check book, you fool!" we headed out to get the van checked out. $90 later, we learned that it was just a "random computer glitch." Oh well, I needed my oil changed anyway.
Tomorrow is another day. Another day where more things can go wrong!

I think they're cheating you, dude! At our place, when they check the "check engine" light it costs $38. Plus, if it comes back on again within six weeks, they'll check it again for free. You should shop around.
On Friday night, my brake and battery lights came on. I borrowed E'Yoak's truck and left it on the street for another week of no use. I just got a referral to a local mechanic so I don't have to drive it 45 minutes on packed freeways to the dealership. I hope....
Want to know how to make a grown man cry?
My friend Nancy's husband volunteered last year to be the classroom parent who organizes all those school supply packets for his daughter's whole grade. He and 2 other parents had to collect the money, go buy all the supplies, parcel them out and package them up, and organize a distribution system for all of 3rd grade.
I think they're starting to wean him off the Ativan this month...
