Oh yeah - frost here too baby!
But then it's going up to 62 degrees today - CRAZY!
Tis the season.... for colds and flu, due to all the crazy weather changes.
Running around again today. Amanda has another follow up with her oral surgeon in Boston; have to pick her up at school, go into Boston, then get her back to school. Yeah - another day spent in the car! Thanks for the suggestions re: my dentist. They did offer to break up the payments over three months; I'll ask about maybe spreading out over a year.
Hope Amanda Panda gets a good report!
So Lauren tells me last night that her friend (the one who I think acts WAY older than she is) is dressing up as a "sexy" referee for Halloween! What the heck is that? And why does a 12 yr.old have to dress up as a "sexy" anything? She showed Lauren a picture of herself in costume on her cell phone - she's wearing a black mini-skirt and a cropped striped shirt. Again, I'm shocked her mom is letting her dress up like that! Last year, they came trick-or-treating with us in our neighborhood; DO NOT think I'll be inviting that along this year!
And to illustrate how wide the gap is between this girl and Lauren: Lauren and her Barbie-loving friend and her sister are going as the Jonas Brothers. Lauren's costume consists of skinny jeans, button-up shirt, converse sneakers and a guitar!
And, this is the friend who has now been giving Lauren a hard time about those lunch cards I was putting in her lunch box. Lauren wouldn't take them and show anyone but she said it made her smile just to see one in there; now she doesn't want me to do them anymore because she's afraid this friend will find out and make fun of her. God, I really hate how she just can't be comfortable liking what she likes and just not caring what a "few" people would think!
Middle school!
