WEEKEND finally!

Corby made a quick trip to Oklahoma yesterday to sign some paperwork for Charles. He left work around noon and came back this afternoon. If you know anyone who might like two min pin/boxer male dogs, let me know. We are trying to find a good home for Charles' dogs. We can't take them, as they are inside dogs - our cats don't get along with dogs! They are 4 years old, and overweight, but very lovable! Their names are Chunka (pronounced Shunka) and Mouse.I spent the day running errands and getting laundry done. I visited mom this morning. She is doing great! I hope the time change tonight doesn't throw her into a tizzy. When we "lost" the hour in the spring, she was out of kilter for months! I got the grocery shopping done - hit both Dillons and Leekers for the bargains!

Kaitlin started training as a cashier last night. She spent 3 hours last night and 3 hours today doing nothing but ringing up items from the store and training. When she went back to work at 4pm from her hour lunch, she was going to get to finally wait on customers. I'm sure she will do fine.

We are headed to Manhattan tomorrow to visit Brandon. He's been wanting his desk chair from home, so we will take it up to him. The last time he was home he tried to get it in his car, but it was too big! We need to do some shopping too - he needs a new winter coat.

How about that Jayhawk football team? Sort of WON that game today! We are fans of K-State (boo hoo, they lost to a bad team!), KU and WSU. Kaitlin may be going to KU, so we'll need one of those "house divided" car tags.

I hope everyone remembers to set their clock back tonight! I love to get an extra hour of sleep!

Current book: Simple Genius by David Baldacci. I've read several of his books, and this looks like a good one.

First Day of School

It's tradition at my house to take a "first day of school" picture. The kids get less and less thrilled every year, but I still do it. Here are the twins before they left for their first day of senior year: Kind of funny that they both wore gray - unplanned of course! I think Kaitlin is putting in her plug for the college she'd like to go to. They had a good day. Found out that at 1800 students, Heights is over their limit by 400 students!!! OMG! I'm not sure what the answer is, but it is WAY TOO CROWDED! I think the northeast side of town needs a new high school. Something needs to be done! Just finished my Nora Roberts book, and have started New Moon, the second book in Stephenie Meyer's vampire series. Kaitlin took Abby to the vet yesterday to get her last distemper shot and a rabies shot. The vet told her that she comes from a line of very strong / physically superior cats. I knew there was some reason that she climbs EVERYWHERE in the house, including u...
