Supplies

Today I went to Givens Books and bought the majority of the home school supplies we will be using this year! I didn't want to go ALL out with school things, due to the fact that we will likely be moving in the next few months - and moving to a GOOD school system (at least it's supposed to be =D)!!!!

I cannot believe I hadn't gone there before. I could have easily spent 5 hours wandering around - especially their used book section. I'm an avid collector of old and antique books, and it was like a little bit of heaven in that area! Much bigger overall than expected, with the added bonus of the Drowsy Poet coffee shop to boot! ;)

Pictures may or may not be forthcoming. Currently, we're just BUSY... Neighborhood yard sale saturday, attempting to consolidate our belongings, getting ready for a small family beach vaca in NC with some friends in their families beach house (YAY!!!), house on the market, schooling about to start up again - oh.. and potty training for Jules. Never a dull moment!

Well they just went from annoying to utterly stupid...

I have zero respect for Chinese politics other than the fact that they've inspired a "good" work ethic (though that's debatable, considering it's out of fear and ultimate survival necessity rather than any inner prompting).

They have to be completely on crack to think that this is going to be any kind of an intelligent idea, especially considering their known track record with the rest of the world...
