I hope everyone had a good weekend.    Jim decided to give my new car a good cleaning yesterday and we found that the sun roof leaks so I am back to the dealership with it today.   Also have a Dr. appointment this morning so she can give me some more pills that don&#39;t do a d**n thing.  Then I have to hit the grocery store as Heather &amp; Cait are coming up this afternoon.   They start back to school next week so they wanted to squeeze in one last trip to Pa. before they get busy with College again.  Big excitement yesterday when Ash took the training wheels off her bike and made it down the driveway without breaking her neck. She was so excited.  She got her classroom assignment on Saturday and it was bittersweet news.   She got the teacher she wanted but is in a different class than her 2 best friends.   School starts a week from tomorrow so we will see how this works out.<br /><br />Jenn - where are you?  We worry when we don&#39;t hear from you.   Good luck with the Dr. today - hope he has some answers for you.<br /><br />Rose &amp; Joey - this time next week you will be cruising - LUCKY YOU.<br /><br />Jackie - sorry you have to report today for Jury Duty.   Hope they dismiss you quickly.<br /><br />Ed - Is Roe all set to go to Ca. on Friday?   Taking a recorder with her is a terrific idea.<br /><br />Steve - Hope Lynda has an easy day at Jury Duty and gets dismissed quickly also.    Hope all goes well with your Dad&#39;s Dr. Appointment today.<br /><br />Sue - I&#39;m sure you weren&#39;t that mean to your parents when you were growing up.<br /><br />Andrea - I used to threaten my DD with sending her away when she was a teen but I always told her they would send her back so why bother.    I did call her bluff  when she threatened to run away once too often when I packed her bag, took her by the hand and put her and the bag outside and locked the doors.   She never threatened to do that again.    lol<br /><br />Falina - enjoy the last day of your vacation.  Hope you had good luck at Kohls yesterday.<br /><br />Shaunna - glad you got a little rest yesterday afternoon before Layla arrived.<br /><br />Kevin - no mountain climbing this weekend?<br /><br />I hope everyone has a great week.   Lots to do today and things quiet down for the rest of the week except to get Ash ready for school which will probably entail a trip to the outlets to get her shoes.   Fortunately she wears a uniform every day so clothes shopping is not a factor.    Luckily Deb managed to get most of her things from the school store in June.   They have such a great thing in this school - they have a classroom full of tables and racks where parents turn in uniforms their kids have outgrown and you just go in and take what you can use. (Free of charge&#33;)   Deb got a couple of jumpers and long pants for her so that was a big start.   (They have 3 different school uniforms plus 2 different gym uniforms, so it really adds up when you go to the uniform store.)<br /><br />Make today special.  I&#39;ll be back later on.
