Cash for Clunkers
From the cars.gov FAQ:
I don't drive an American car but I would like to trade in my old car for a newer, more fuel efficient one. Is this program only for American cars?
No. You may trade in or buy a domestic or a foreign vehicle.
*blink* What?
No, seriously… what? I can see accepting a trade IN of a foreign vehicle, but people can get OUR money to ( Read more... ) -
Waking up Friday
Last night I went to bed pretty late, at least for me. I didn’t end up going in to read until 11:45. Even though I didn’t get a lot of sleep what sleep I did get was deep. I woke up in a GREAT mood and I hope it holds, although, I already feel the lack of sleep pulling me into a duuuuh kind of stupor ( Read more... ) -

James thought he would go one better, kicked off his shoes and socks and went in calf high. He only caught one. But they were so funny trying to out do each other.
2) Playing the What If and ( Read more... ) -
Waste of Time?
Puzzles have always been something that I’ve loved to solve. Word searches, fill-ins, Sudoku, crossword, word problems, Jumble; and the list could go on.

There is a distinct disconnect between wanting to get all the answers and thus completing the puzzle ( Read more... ) -
James is a Chatty Cathy
James’ progress report was good, not great but the last two have steadily come up from the “bad” one earlier in the year. His biggest problem area is talking in class. Wait, MY kid, “talking in class”? Are you *kidding* me? No way. MY kid wouldn’t do that.
Ok, he totally would.
After all, he is my kid, and he surely didn’t fall far from the -
The Good and The Bad
Yesterday should have been more enjoyable than it was. I was off work so that I could attend the May Crowing Rosary at St. Michael Academy and then James and I went right from there to the Channel 93.3 concert ( Read more... )
