Our latest issue isn't peanut butter, but the fact that my son leaves his homework out when the guinea pigs are running out for their "exercise time" in the evening, and his papers have been chewed a couple of times.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02362687820368214420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32453088.post-85141340597119243982007-12-12T10:10:00.000-05:002007-12-12T10:10:00.000-05:00Dang!

It had been all made out and sealed in an envelope with a stamp, so I cleaned it up as best I could and I mailed it. The bank probably thinks I must really hate making my car payment. Actually, I don't mind, I just have a three year old and a cat with a hair ball problem.Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12577984703515849459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32453088.post-51114302381513766932007-12-10T22:09:00.000-05:002007-12-10T22:09:00.000-05:00I'm just amazed arranging a parent teacher confere...I'm just amazed arranging a parent teacher conference was so easy for you.

I don't recall ever turning in homework with peanut butter on it - but then maybe that's because the dog ate it (on account of it being so tasty).Flower Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08611806187828172442noreply@blogger.com
