Miscellaneous

1. With the rapid rise of gasoline prices, thought I'd share this little gas saving tip someone shared with me: When parking, try to pull through when you park. Backing up to pull out of a parking space uses more gas. It may seem small, but every little bit helps, right?

2. While wanting to take McKenna to a walk-in clinic, or to a "doc in a box" this week, we first visited a place called "Urgent Care", only to find it closed at 5 pm.....good thing it wasn't "urgent". Then we went on to a second place. It was called, "Express Care", two hours later, we left with prescriptions in hand for her earache.....good thing we weren't in a hurry.

3. After lots and lots of hours of work, the student art show is up!
Woohoo!
So, kindergarten's evening will be Wednesday and first grade's evening will be Thursday.
It's nice that we will have Friday off. :o)

4. I bought a new top and a new skirt today....mmmm, new clothes feel wonderful.....but the new skirt also needed a new slip and new shoes......mmmm, that wasn't as much fun....

5. And thanks to Scott's decisiveness looks like I'll be going to NYC with him in June to attend his friend's wedding. It's only a four day trip....he wants a ball game, I want Lion King, with the bachelor party on Friday night, I wonder which we'll choose.

Love to all,
hopefully many more photos on my next post....

WOW! Thanks for the tip on saving gas by not backing up if possible.I am lousy at backing up, so that's a good excuse.

Can't wait to see your pic's of the room ready for the show! Also can't wait to see your new skirt, shoes, etc. Kohl's? Did that work out after all?

Have a great week!

Hip, hip, hoorah! The art show is up and going.

The only other way to save gas is get a horse and buggy. Ha Ha!

The New York trip is a wonderful idea for you and Scott and whatever you decide to do will be wonderful! Hope it is the Lion King though.

See you Thursday!
Love, Grandma
