How Did We Do It?

  • August 14, 2009 at 8:26 am

It’s been 25 years since I had to get a 6 year old dressed and ready for catching a school bus. I don’t know how we did it!

I figured that if the bus comes at 7:15, we need to walk out the door at 7:07 to give us plenty of time to get down the street to the corner bus stop. So I set the alarm for 6:00 am. Ugh.

This boy took FOREVER to wake up and start moving around. He’s worse than ME before my coffee!!!!!!

Getting Ready for the New School Year

  • August 3, 2009 at 9:30 am

School starts on August 14, so I want to get the list of school supplies and start picking up those things over the next two weeks.

All the WalMarts have a cardboard display with photocopies of each school’s name and grade specific school supplies that need to be bought and delivered to the school on the student’s first day.

I checked two different WalMarts for our school’s list and they don’t have any. So I asked at customer service and they told me that the school has not given them the lists yet. I don’t know if that’s true, but I would hope the customer service clerk isn’t lying.
