Not much has happened of late.
Kids going to school, schedule resumed.
Life is actually pretty calm. Which is really wonderful. And I do mean that. But doesn't give much in the way of blogging.
I'm a little stumped for topics.
I did start reading some new blogs last night (it's really addicting once you start) and I did realize something. Just an observation that I made. Many people have blogs that keep them somewhat anonymous. Most of their audience is made up of people who don't know them in real life (IRL). My case is the opposite. Most of the people that read my blog are people that I know. I haven't tried to promote this blog in any way or broaden my audience. Which is fine-I started this for me, not for any other reason. But, since most people know me I can't share everything I probably would if people didn't know who I was. I guess I am afraid of judgement and of being too personal. Sometimes I wish I could just say whatever I want. Although it seems the older I get, the more I do that anyway.
That's my deep thought of the week.
----------------------
Little T did say something funny a while ago. She asked me to buy a new house, one with a pool. I explained that houses are a lot of money ( I even told her "hundreds of thousands of dollars"). I asked her if she had that much money. She said no and then told me she had an idea.
Her words "If we all lost our teeth and put our money under our pillows, we could save up the money the tooth fairy gives us and buy a house that way." You can imagine my face, I was not expecting her to say that. My response "Honey, I don't think the tooth fairy has that kind of money AND not one in our family would have any teeth left!" (in fact I know the tooth fairy intimately and she is in debt-of course I didn't say the last part). Sometimes I just cannot keep a straight face with that kid! She just cracks me up!! I really do try not to laugh though, she gets angry at me when I think she is funny and she wasn't trying to be. Which is basically all the time.
Anyway, that's all I've got. Let's talk about the book on Sunday evening around 8ish? Oct. 25th? Hope that works for everyone.

E, read your coupon blog. You are getting good! Keep up the good work - saving is good.
ok so i totally forgot that the 'book club' was tonight; i haven't finished the book yet...well, i will try to finish it tomorrow or something and comment once i've finished it...
i didn't realize there was book club again. You need to nag me so I get the book. I like to read and discuss. Don't read omnivore's dilemma if you want to feel good about eating corn or anything mass produced. I feel guilty.....
