For whatever reason the school district has decided to lengthen the school year. Or in other words. Summer is getting shorter.... So I am trying to get all the things ready. All. the. things.
Today was school shopping for clothes with little d. I hate shopping for clothes. Well mostly I hate not finding what you need. Just random shopping is fun. But when you need a certain jean or short or capri and a certain color/style/bullshit to meet dress code it saps the ALL the fun out.
I also have to get all the school supplies. I have about half of what I need so far. My plan is to go early in the am to get the rest. I'm sure the store will totally have the red yellow blue and green plastic folders with pockets and brads and not be picked over at all.
I ordered those pink erasers online. At the store you can get 3 for about $4. Online I got a case of 24 for $7. How ridiculous is that?
Well not as ridiculous as needing 13 cases of pencils. Each elementary kid needs 4. And my middle schooler needs one for each subject. You have got to be effing kidding. I am for sure supplying pencils for the entire district.
Let's not talk about the paper goods. 8 boxes of kleenexes. Roll of paper towels. Box of wet wipes. 2 boxes of ziplocs. Does the school even have a janitorial budget?? Oh but let's not get started on school taxes please....
Ok onto other news. Little md, like his sis, needs his tonsils out. Long story short we will probably be scheduled for the day before the first day of school. But good news is we can then enroll him in first grade the following Monday and he will have NO absences. Still that one in your you know what school district.
I am anxious about it. But praying. And praying some more.
