I would think a water bill would work. Haven't owned it long enough to get other mail, right? Only problem I would see it that the school would then send all info to you at that address, but if the lessee's are ok with getting school mail to you that should work.

DrHug and I are SO excited about our "find" yesterday! We saw a Disney movie called "Night Crossing" way back in the early 80's and have searched for it for a long time. We even checked at the store on Main Street at DL, they looked in their log and found nothing. No one had even heard of it. We thought it is out of print and gone forever. Well, yesterday at our local little Bi-Mart store there it was on DVD! We bought it and watched it again last night. Loved it again! It is based on a true story of two East German families (back in the day of the Wall) who escape to the West in a hot air balloon. Very exciting, good movie.

Angie, that movie sounds really good. I looked it up on imdb.com to find out more about it.

Watching your Steelers Marielle??

Watching your Steelers Marielle??

Of course! And beating the "hometown" Eagles would be even more fun (yeah, it's preseason, but I'll take anything!). Hope the Steelers hang on!

Tomorrow night is meet the teacher night at school. Sophia is worried because she found out our neighbor boy is in her class, and she heard he does "gross" stuff in class. Amy is worried because her teacher is a 34 year teacher and Sophia does not do as well with older teachers - I am hoping this will help her with that as I have heard she is a very good teacher.

Alex is all moved in to his new place. It was a lot of work this weekend, and my back is feeling it. Since he is now in a year-round lease, with his new place, we agreed that Sophia would be switching rooms now to the bigger room. I think Alex will be missing his old room and feel funny, but Sophia is getting a new bed that will fit better in the larger room, and Alex will probably be coming home less and less now. It was silly to keep the room for him now. I am going to move his essential stuff to the other room for when he wants to sleep here.

Wednesday we have to go to Alex's White Coat Ceremony where he formally gets his white lab coat as he starts medical school. Classes start tomorrow for him, and will be basic introductions to medical school for the first three weeks. He admitted to me today that he is a bit nervous - he has always had such an easy time with school, and is worried he may actually now have to do some work and studying!

 

[Jhalkias]

Of course! And beating the "hometown" Eagles would be even more fun (yeah, it's preseason, but I'll take anything!). Hope the Steelers hang on!

They look pretty strong right now.

We'll see how strong they are, and what the future may hold for my Browns in about 14 days when we open with the Steelers at Cleveland. When you watch that game Marielle, Alex and I will be there!

Carla . . .

If you bop in, are you ready for September 24th????

How about that new time travel show too?

Looks cool!

The TV guys were just talking about the mess with Eagles' coach Andy Reid's sons... all of their incidents happened just a mile or 2 from my house. This week's drunk/parking lot problem was in the shopping center that I'm in several times a week (it has Target, Lowe's, my grocery store, Barnes & Noble, Best Buy, etc... all the necessities)

I am not even listening to what they are talking about. Amy wonders how I can stand the announcers some times - easy - I can tune them out totally, and just watch the game while I type at my laptop.

You know what really drives me crazy Marielle?

At Browns stadium, we now have the "Heinz Red Zone" and Giant Eagle is the official Supermarket of the Browns. What's up with that? Both Pittsburgh companies! I have spent some time in our negotiations with one of the owners of Giant Eagle, and they took a lot of heat back in the 'Burgh when they sponsored the Browns.

That is weird. I can't believe the Browns even considered those sponsorships.

Walt turns 4 on Friday! He said he wasn't going to have a birthday, though.

Are you kidding?

I have really changed how I think about all of this when the Browns were "Stolen" by Baltimore.

It is all about the $$$$$.

I enjoyed it all a lot more before we felt betrayed as fans here, and it was all about the money then too.

 

[Jhalkias]

Good night Marielle - I need to get ready for the dreaded MONDAY . . .

Giving up on the last 7 minutes of preseason ball not involving your team????

 

[87Heel]

Good night!

I'll be interested in hearing what is reason is. Kids are so funny!

I went to bed but could not sleep. I have been fretting about tomorrow. Ahhh...the first day of school!!!!

I wish I could stay home and take Jake for his first day of preschool...but that won't be happening!!!!

I think it will be a mad house tomorrow...800 kids in a brand new building...

Wish me luck!

DH was watching the Eagles but after they pulled McNabb he headed to bed. He is sound asleep!!! Who won?
