I've mentioned before how I hate Mondays

I really hate 'em. This semester has busy Mondays also, with swimming lessons for Lindsay in the morning and soccer practice for Lauren in the evening. Today, we have to see the pediatrician so the girls can get their flu shot.

The midterm went OK. I got an object entirely wrong, which was missing from my flashcards, so I don't feel like I didn't study well enough, just kind of a bone-head move to have missed it.

I was out all morning, and rested for a half hour, even so, behind about a load of laundry and I was hoping to get dinner prepped since we won't be home this afternoon. Ah well.

We had our garage sale this weekend - which went well. We made enough to buy a new digital camera to replace the one that broke during Lauren's party. It is an Olympus FE-310 which is easier to use than any dig-cam I've owned (I think this is our 3rd). Since it is last year's model, it was on the discount rack for 25% off. I got another 40% off because they were out of all of them except the display model. I didn't get a case, but hey, what a deal! You can't BEAT that.

Today, driving Lauren to school, I discovered that my husband left a half-drunk bottle of Sam Adams tucked in the pocket of the windshield. I pulled over to tuck it in the car, and hurriedly tucked it in the trunk. The police monitor our school drop off since it involves turning 3 streets one-way while it happens, so I was really glad I noticed it before Officer Friendly did in the school drop off lane. *phew*

Ross has the FE-280 and it takes great pictures. I also love how small it is, tiny enough for a pocket but not so small that it's hard to hold.

I'm glad you notice the Sam in the car, too - can you imagine THAT DYFS visit?

On hating Mondays, I went to the bus for the kids today and was mildly bewildered when they didn't get off. Then, a neighbor kid reminded me they're at aftercare on Mondays. Just now, Chris reminded me I was supposed to pick them up from aftercare when my class was over. Oops.

Oh imagine the WME points you could have earned by taking your kids to school with a bottle of beer.

I hate Mondays too. Really hate them. It's hard to get out of bed.
