Well, off to get ready for work. Will try to check in later
Took the kids to the zoo today. Our county started school this week but Cole's pre-school doesn't start back till after labor day so this week is the PERFECT time to hit up all the fun outings that are usually packed with fieldtrips.
Tomorrow we are stuck at the apt. all day because DH is taking my van in for an estimate on the front end damage I caused when I rear ended a motorcycle that was stopped at a light. Ugh. No one was injured, but I was really shaken up about it. I guess being cooped all day with the kids is a good punishment for me. I clocked the distance to super t tonight and it's 3 miles - too far to make Cole walk.
It is so dry here. The dogwood trees look like they are dying.

Hugs!
I will be glad when summer is over!! I'm tired. Hope everyone is doing well.
Setsail is ok too, she posted on FB.
Next, we have to get ready for the upcoming hurricane Irene this weekend. What a week!
On the baby side, I'm 6 months pregnant now and have an appt with the UVA pediatric heart specialist on Sept 1st. Just trying to keep positive and hope my daughter doesn't have heart issues.
Hope everyone is having fantastic runs at T and enjoying the last days of summer.

And, I agree.. when the kids start back to school is the best time to do things like that.. My kids have always been homeschooled, so we take advantage of the lower crowds when school starts too..
Of course, during the school year here, our zoo will be packed with school groups.. But, I guess probably not the first few weeks of school. It is just too hot for me though. I am ready for fall

I do agree about being tired of summer.. bring on the cool crisp autumn air!

Busy day with errands.. Made it to target.. Great trip except they were out of the bread so I couldn't do the deal with the OM lunch meat.
Finally took the plunge and booked my disney vacation today.. Bought all of our passes.. Between tickets for disney, books for DD, gas for my van, and a few things at the grocery store, I dropped 1600.00 today
I am gonna have a yard sale this weekend even if the heat kills me!

L2B, we pay for Mini's books as well even though she's just in HS. I've learned to get her books used off Amazon. We were paying $400-$500 in books and they weren't even all new when we went through the school bookstore. I've had great luck with sellers with super fast shipping.
Some dairy got into my diet. I'm suspecting it was the AF ham we had for dinner last night. Poor No-ey has green dipes and streaks of blood too.

thrift, does doc think he is lactose intolerant and that's the dairy reaction or is it something else (hormones in non-organic dairy, antibiotics in non-organic dairy, reaction to corn/soy feed etc ?)
if he's lactose intolerant, maybe doc can say if he can be given some lactase as a precautionary thing each day, so that in case something sneaks in like this, he doesn't suffer?
sending prayers and hugs his way.
textbooks: it's an awesome thing these days that one can buy used textbooks off the marketplace as opposed to having to pay the huge markups in hs/college campus bookstores. that being said, we've had great luck with
a) borrowing the books from the library for the entire semester - free
b) renting the books from a textbook rental service, which ends significantly cheaper than buying used. and as a plus, some of the sites let you swap text books you have for ones you need to buy. so it's a good way to get value on used textbooks.
too bad none of these buying/renting options existed when i went to college. oh the money i paid the campus bookstore. TOTAL RACKET.

This time, it just snuck up last minute. I thought she was supposed to get a book allowance from the state in the dual enrollment program, so I was wai ting for that. I checked around, but only 1 book was available from amazon. Sadly, 2 of the books were institutional specific.. The science book alone was 160.00. But, it is a brand new edition and hopefully we will be able to sell it back!

oh well, it is done now. Hopefully we will sell some back and get some money back at the end of the semester!

Yeah, we rented one of her English books.. sadly, the other 3 weren't rentable this semester..

got any place where you can photocopy for free/cheap? that's what we did. just photocopy and a put in a binder. and return the new one unused within the return period.
we found we were losing so much value in selling back used, that for us it was simply not worth it. so in cases where libraries/rental services didn't have it, we took this tack and returned in pristine condition.
Did I mention how quiet it is in the house now!...Almost too quiet. But I think I will get used to it. LOL
Sun is shinning brightly and still no rain. Temp in triple digits!
Dillard's having an additional 30% off today of permanently reduced merchandise. Was hoping for a Coach Bag but alas someone came in yesterday and bought all Coach that was 30% and 50% off. I guess she was afraid someone else would get one!
