He's right, though, I really want a Suburban or a Yukon....and they cost more than my house.  :whistle:  

 

Maybe I'll just try winter tires this year instead.  

 

Page 6 of my min 9 page paper done.  #annoying

Man I love my Yukon... I'm a gonna pull the trigger in the next couple of years and get a new one. But the thing is like 1-4 years tuition for the kids!

 

#### Dutch! You know you want a new Yukon. Now go get one...  :devil:

They already have the class lists out at Target for the North Dakota kids, why not shop early if you have the list?

 

We've already been out of school for near two months, but they don't go back until after Labor Day.  Our lists are out in about two weeks.

 

Mid-August in college back to school, though, and that is big business for them.

You guys see how convenient the school-kits are? No shopping! No lugging a baga stuff to school!

I'm pretty sure my husband is wondering why I am singing to myself at 1:30 in the morning in the living room.

 

Or maybe he is just used to my night owl self by now.

Maybe you should sing the jingle from Yukon commercials. He'll get the point, sooner or later...

New cars 🚗I am lusting over Jeep Wranglers, totally impractical but I love the bright colors - I'd find it in the parking lot 😂😂

Not in our budget any time soon though especially with rednecks surgery bill arriving soon but lusting over them keeps me entertained 😂

 

He had a good day yesterday, I was exhausted, we left here at 9:30 AM and got back at 9:45 PM but he saw his besties and talked guns so he is a happy lad...

 

MIL seems to competing with her sister to see which ones child spends the most money on their mom - we were confused by all her talk until Joes cousin contacted us yesterday asking about the camper we have for sale and his mom came in last night and announced we need to clear some woodland and put it here for her to live in (his cousin wants it for her mom to stay in at their house)...

 

Think I need to give her a list itemizing the thousands of dollars we have spent on her in just the 18 months I've been here!

Everything crossed for a smooth and stress free journey

Well, you see, my 8 year old wants specific school supplies though.  Preferably pink and/or with minecraft on them.  Then, we also go for quality - last year thankfully Ticonderoga had their pencils in pink, otherwise she gets them in whatever colorful selection they have.  Back to school night is a few days before school starts - we bring the stuff, we set up her space at school, meet her teacher, etc.

I filling myself with not good food today...I have to get this paper done by midnight.  I'm almost there, but then it needs to be revised to be really tight.  It is worth a significant portion of my semester grade.  

 

Then I get a month off before the torture resumes.

We went to see Dunkirk, it is possibly the worst war film ever made.

 

I know it's not helpful to you all right now but a hysterectomy is the best surgery I ever had ( didn't think so at the time, I was under 30 and it followed what they call a traumatic birth )

Everything crossed for a smooth and stress free journey
