Another day in the life . . .

This has been a pretty good week. Everything has been pretty smooth, even with the hubby gone over night once. I've been hard at work trying to get my magazine website updated and the colors right. Sometimes its fun doing a site designing by yourself . . . and then sometimes, grrrr.

Been taking it easy with the back to school shopping - got a few good deals at Kmart last week ($0.20 Crayola 24ct, $0.33 12pk no.2 pencils, and $0.50 pencil pouch). At Walmart I found some washable markers for $0.70 each and $0.10 wide-ruled notebooks. Not bad so far, I've spent less than $5.00 on school supplies.

I've written a couple of Back to School articles for my column. Check it out if you get the chance - loved some feedback or new ideas. (Especially if you have some good back to school ideas for older kids.)

Well after another minute I get up to check on them. Only Sunshine (my boy) is in bed. I make the loop around the house looking for Rain (my girl, 5 yrs old) and find her in the bathroom like this:
