Random ramblings

07-08 school year.

Isn't that crazy?

I am looking at middle schools for my daughter.

About 10 minutes ago I was dropping her off into the ever-safe-hands of Mrs. B who was teaching her Mele Kalikimaka and how to group numbers or something along those lines that made no sense to me......and now I am middle school shopping. And bras...we are shopping for bras. If you know of a good place that sells 34 negative a, please let me know.

I also know two really, really, really, and did I mention Really? good Kindergarten teachers who have little preshious girls who better savor and lick up every bit of that gooey goodness and pink frilly dress-ness , because OMG.... where the hell did that go? (One of them is also the proud owner of a boy which is pretty much like raising a small alien and all I can say about that is Invest in A Very Good Plunger because the amount of things boys flush down toilets is very, very frightening.)

My goodness.





This is my second year as Volunteer Coordinator at school and my 5th year of being the "1st Day Packet Guru". I will say that 5 years has given me a lot of experience and I do believe, today ran quite smoothly. I need to ensure Kindergarten Night and New Family Welcome Night are both well attended and represented, all from the beautiful Oregon Coast which is where the McSilly's hibernate the last week of August. We leave tomorrow and I am not sure who is more relieved and excited to go....me or the children.







This summer was "off" for lack of a better word. I am sad to see my babies leave me all day/every day, but a little routine and distraction is going to be a much needed thing around here. Grandpa has been approved for a new medication that was initally going to cost him around $3200 a month, but we received a call from the drug company this week and they have "approved" him to take the drug and he will be coughing up ( ha ha.....lung cancer joke) $10 a month and needless to say we are all quite relieved.





So that's about it from around these parts. We are off to the beach with grandma and grandpa and my BFF and her family where we will do a lot of the following.....


a. eating
b. drinking martinis
c. drinking mojitos
d. drinking wine
e. eating
f. playing cards
g. swimming
h. gambling
i. sleeping
j. weenie roasting
k. playing Blokus
l. drinking more wine


and my husband's favorite part of the weekend HAVING SEX WITH HIS WIFE ! NO FRICKIN COMPUTER !!!


See you all in September :)
