1. It turns out Kristin has a small miniscal tear and cyst in her left knee but it can be improved or fixed with surgery. The surgeon will repair it if possible and trim it if not.
2. We got Kristin's bag for her senior trip checked in without a hitch. My, how times have changed! In my day, there were no overnight trips. If there had been, we wouldn't have needed bag searches and drug dogs.
3. This morning, we dropped Kristin and two of her friends off at high school so they could be on their merry 4-day way! One friend's mother will pick them up when they arrive back (around midnight) and we did the early morning drop-off. Working together is a wonderful thing!
4. Shop Rite wasn't thinking of its customers today and I brought it to management's attention. I think I got on the nerves of the two managers there. Good. They had this in-store special but didn't have any set out. When TB asked, he was told it was in the back and packed--go get a rain check. When I asked for the refund, the managers said they couldn't because it's an "in-store special" and not in the flyer. Okay. I asked that the product get unpacked and that's when they got annoyed. Tough. I am happy I spoke up.
5. We stopped by a garage sale and picked up a couple of nice deals. TB got a used drill and I got a put-it-together kit (sort of like Marble Works) for Little T. And we spent $10.

1. Would you describe your desk as generally cluttered or generally neat?
Oh boy is it cluttered!
2. There’s the old saying about one’s clutter being “organized” just where he can find everything: considering the most cluttered part of your workspace, can you really find everything easily?

In my PDA, which is in my purse

You achieve success one step at a time, by paying attention to details. |
