Hmph. TELL me about it, Sweetie! Iirc, that was why we didn't connect when I was there to perform my best Friend's memorial service. What a shame our schedules didn't jive.
We've always had two cars when we had kids with us, but since then like Walks, being retired means I can have the car whenever I need it. That's why Hubby bought himself that motorcycle: so he could get to his golf club in the wee hours of the morning without waking me up to drive him, plus I had the van. However, since this accident I've only started driving again in the past few months, and oh, BOY, does that independence feel fantastic again!!!

So how's this for keeping an eye on your kids while they're in school?
Our DD just told me that she gets HOURLY updates on their son's behavior in class on her iphone!! Every hour on the hour there's a little icon and note that lets her know what he's been up to!! Only one note said that he didn't put up his hand to answer a question, the others were fine!!
So....would you all like to know how your kids are doing every hour of every day at school?!
Our DD sure does, lol....And evidently it doesn't take the teacher any time at all...she wears something around her neck and taps on it when she has a moment and it goes out to the parents!!
I can guess there are some parents somewhere who may not want that kind of instant information...

@Lynn49 wouldn't want to know every hour, the teachers have more important things to do in my opinion (not meaning to offend), however, if there is a problem I would want to know about it sooner rather than later. But we all have different opinions when it comes to our children.
2019 is the year that we continue to save before we buy!!!

Well after ds1 assisting me with the new router only my computer could connect to the network. My internet provider has offered me bringing in my laptop and the new router to add the new router to my pc/network, HOWEVER, the new network/router is on my pc. @saundyl our computer wizard what could possibly be stopping the other laptops and xbox360 from getting the new network on their machines, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Good Luck FBM!! They will have a blast, we have had a lot of sleepovers over the kids lives, and only lost sleep over a few. Hopefully they settle down reasonably early!!
Saundyl, nice work getting the new job!!!
Didn't have a super frugal day, went to the mall with my granddaughter and spent way too much time in Claires with her, she is at that age, picked her up a couple of shirts at another store and she wanted to take Cinnabon home for her mom and dad. I did find some back to school shaving packs on clearance at Shoppers and picked up 3 to tuck away for the kids, the guys had the oxipads in it that my son uses so I was happy with the deal!!
Baked cookies with my granddaughter this morning before we went out and I have a chocolate fudge bundt cake in the oven to bring to the lake tomorrow. My husband is taking some Americans out goose hunting and thought I would pop out with dessert for them. Will pick up ice cream at No Frills on the way.Other than my little jaunt to the lake I will be doing books all weekend, yucky job but I need to get it done.
Hope everyone has a nice weekend!!

@saundyl - congratulations on the new job, wtg!
Oh, speaking of cars, how I very much MISS having my own! After mine (she was called Anastasia) died, we didn't replace it right away - and then never did. Really should have pushed to have done it right away. I really miss having the independence. Van husband drives is FULL of tools and parts and materials of all sorts, so he doesn't want me driving it.

I would have a hard time with the loss of independence! My car broke down 3 yrs ago for 7 weeks and I felt like I was always bumming a ride or stranded

Is it a router that's been configure to only allow certain "mac" addresses? (the mac address is the number built in to the network card that acts as the physical address) I've seen routers from isps com preconfigured that way.
Or parental controll settings. Ours locks the boys out at 1pm on weekends so they have to do nonelectronic activities.
this third one shouldn't affect the Xbox but...some older devices don't connect to newer networks because they are a different or older technology. Ie the types of security some routers request is wpa2 and the device only goes as high as wpa.
Did you use the network setup disc ?

I haven't found any coupons for chips - probably a good thing. No, a really good thing. ALL my pants are tight. Argh! I am *this* close to becoming a yoga-pant-wearing grocery shopper. Mom pants. Sigh. Oh my goodness, I want chips...
You had the courage to toss them? I give them to my sister-in-law who takes them to the washroom at work. I guess she has very self-conscious co-workers. I'm still going through some of my paperwork. Today, I tossed some old records. I found my old driving test evaluation, my application and payment for my G2, 2007 taxes, etc. Why do I keep these? I am going to break my poor shredder.
Congratulations on getting rid of the second car. We've never had one, but I imagine we will within two years. DH finds it a struggle to drive to work for 2 hours after dropping LO off at daycare for 7 AM. Before-school care starts at 7:30 AM, so there will be no way he'll be able to do it when she goes to kindergarten. If I were to be a SAHM, we'd have to move 2 hours north. Both sound expensive.

Good Morning all,
Congrats on the job Saundlyn
AS for coupons I find it harder and harder to coupon there are few I have found we will use (Webber Vitamins in this Month's Wal-Mart magazine) but for the most part if I go shopping without my coupons it is no issue as it is almost shocking when I use a coupon. I just cannot find coupons for things we use.
I am single but I could never imagine only having 1 car but with that being said my huge concern would be working. I live and work in the boonies, we just finally got bus service here but the area I work in bus only goes every 2 hours and with the hours I work it would just not work for me. As well with travelling for work now I leave at the start of the week and at times don't come back till the end of the week so that would be hard. My Oma never drove and I have no idea how she did it living where they do and with kids, personally I never could have done it.
Where has this week gone? Don't get wrong so happy it is Saturday even though I sit here typing this from work with receiving paperwork taking over my desk and the one beside me. It feels like this week flew by and I did not get much done. Oh well what can you do, personally it has been a bit of an emotional week, there is a lot going on and within I had to find the strength to face some things and make some decisions which were hard for me to make. After speaking to various people who different perspectives on the situation I know what I need to do and will go from there, here is hoping we will have a positive outcome that will work for everyone involved.
Well I better get back to this paperwork, have a great day everyone.
