Good thing I'm not the one going back to school.
My brain is shot, kaput, fried.
I hate all the prep that comes with getting everyone back to school.
All the money too.
$$$$$$$ for...
School clothes.
School supplies.
Groceries to stock up Bailee.
Fees. Oh the fees.
Books. Who would think you could charge so much for a text book?
Even the husband is temporarily in school so to speak
Now, I admit he is going to class every day
but, he is doing it somewhere fantastic.
Although every time he goes there he can honestly say he experiences excitement.
First he survived 9/11
then a tornado
now an earthquake.
Maybe he should stay home.
I'll be glad when everyone is settled
and we can get back to a routine.
I'm missing the lazy days of summer already.

A little while ago....
at the beginning of the summer
Linc backed his truck into Bailee's car.
The results, a dented quarter panel and a shattered gas door.
He promised her it would be repaired before she went back to school.
Last week we went to get some bids.
We first went to a local body shop located on Redwood Road for a bid...
1,200.00 big ones!!
Seriously!! This seemed really steep.
Then a good guy friend of hers told us of a really great guy
who does great work, for a great price.
We met up with him at his shop also in Riverton
and he quoted us $500.00.
Huge Difference~!!
Now...
I don't know if this is because of the friendship of Bailee's
or he is just a fair guy.
Either way decision made to take it into his shop today and get the work done.
We were scheduled to bring the car in today.
We wanted to pay cash to avoid a claim on our insurance.
Yesterday on the way home from I Fly in Ogden
during rush hour on I-15
Bailee was in a small car accident.
Causing significant damage to the front end of her car.
So....
to the body shop we head this morning
with a little more work than expected.
He is going to be doing both repairs now
but not for cash....
This time we had to make a claim on the old insurance.
Hope our premiums don't go up.
We are just grateful know one was hurt.
