Oh, and somehow I agreed to go "back to work" today. At least I can work from home. I had the guy I work with email me Quickbook reports and I suppose I should get that done today also. Along with A's ice cream social/drop off supplies/find your classroom. And her haircut so her bangs get out of her eyes. And her music class, which I rescheduled to today because of her afternoon staggered start Thursday. I hope I pack enough stuff for Dylan in the diaper bag for today.

All-in-one, probably. We eat so much grilled meat + sides. It gets old!

Haha. Addison is the same way. She will wear dresses that I pick out for her. But t-shirts, skirts and legging sets she has to pick out. Oh, and she drives me crazy with sweaters. She doesn't like the sleeves coming down too far. She was still wearing some too-small 3T sweaters for that reason. I finally put them in the bag of clothes to give away because I was tired of seeing her in them.

I have yet to sit down and try to figure out Quickbooks. I played around a little last night with the transaction download from my bank. I think I need to go back and manually enter the transactions that occurred before I got that interface set up with my bank.

I hope everyone in the DC area is OK after the earthquake.

Laurie - my friends in Indianapolis felt the earthquake! I agree, totally crazy. You certainly don't expect them when you live in that part of the country. We had a 5.2 when I lived in Indiana back in 2008, with a significant aftershock. It was surreal. Haven't felt one out here in a while...knock on wood...they are scary! Especially for us, living 10 miles from a nuclear power plant!

I hope you like A's backpack from Land's End! I was very pleased with the quality. I almost ordered the lunch bag, but resisted. I wouldn't have been able to pass up getting that embroidered, too, and that would have been very expensive! Addison picked out a pink one with a kitten on it from Target last weekend.

Speaking of Target...I'm excited that ours will be opening in October but very scared about that prospect. The past two times I've gone there, I've spent $50 per bag...ouch! At least if there is one close, I will pay attention to the sale fliers and not buy everything at full price, like I do now because I go there so infrequently.
