I just have to ask those working moms....How do you do it?????
I am a Step-mom to two boys ages 6 and 9. I have a three year old that has been in minimal nursery school since he was one. He only goes three days a week for a couple of hours.
My step-sons BM (birth mother) just had a baby with her BF and this is her schedule:
She drops my step-sons at school to the morning-care program at 7:15AM (school starts at 8:45AM). She then drives her three month old baby to an in-home sitter that has five or six other kids at 7:45AM and then goes to work. She picks the baby up at 6:00PM and then she picks my SS up from after-care at 6:15PM (their school is over at 3:10PM). So my ss's are at school each day for 11 hours and the three month old baby is at a sitters for 10 hours each day!
Doesn't that seem like a lot! I just don't understand this. I offered to watch my SS's and she let me for two weeks and then got mad at my DH and put them back in the scholl child care program.
Why would you bother having children if someone else is going to raise them for you?

We don't have lots of snow at all. Right now we have rain and it was abit above 50 and dropping. We have some snow no doubt but not much as compared to say Blizzards and stuff that we see on television it's relatively warm.
You are forgetting Kentucky?? Bordering Ohio and Indiana. And different parts of these states see different parts of weather. For instance up north they may get colder earlier in August while we down here have still really warm weather. One area may have severe weather while the other doesn't . It just depends upon where you are.
In fact coming from lunch I was checking out feet yep you heard me feet I didn't see one pair of boots on anyone. Even at the bus stops. Even at the stores I went into. I checked at Fridays no boots. I checked when I stopped for hot chocolate at Mc.Donalds no boots.
It just depends upon where you are located an if you are in rural areas or not.
And even in states where boots are the norm in winter you only generally only see boots when there is actually snow on the ground.
Keep trying, honey, you might actually learn how to debate one of these days.
