Random back to school thoughts

I hate that when they are middle school and older they don't get the supply list till open house or in Katie's case, after school starts...

I hate Jennifer isn't here to do the school supply shopping...

How can all the stores be out of the boxes of yellow pencils and Expo chisel tip markers???

Why did Kellie decide this was the best day to spend her birthday money?  Granted, the tax free week got her more for her money but every store in town was crowded...

Why does only one store in town sell Tom's shoes?  It is the very weird  trendy store by the university where all of the new students and their mom's were shopping today... And the girl waiting on us, we thoroughly enjoyed seeing her yellow bra that was providing little coverage... It's a clothing store, maybe she should shop for a shirt that covers the yellow bra better...

The girls both have their first day of school clothes picked out... I don't yet...

Kellie will be decked out with her new clothes, shoes and accessories she bought with birthday money... Katie has few new things... me, not so much...

Mike asked for us to set him up on facebook... we may have created a monster.
 
He is spending a lot of time on it and then a lot of time whining about how old all his friends look... today he called me over to see the picture of a 17 year old cheerleader and then went on to show me how different she looked now... I had to explain it would be really weird if she still looked like a 17 year old cheerleader married to that old guy (who is also one of his friends)....

Today I let Katie drive down the ally... she's going to need some extensive practice in the next couple of years... Think that will need to be Mike's job if we can get him off Facebook...I'm still recovering.


Enjoy the first week of school!
