Today was the kids’ first day of school. Ethan looks less than thrilled. Madi’s an eager beaver. Then again, pictures were involved and she’s always eager for those 
Okay, freaking SERIOUSLY. Where the hell has the year gone? We’re starting 3/4 of the end … THE END … of the year 
Um WHAT? Kids go back to school in 16 days. I register them in 3. Wow. Now that it’s coming up this close, I’m a little sad 
I will say this. August is not coming in quietly. Expected high of 103F today. That’s not taking into account heat index. I don’t give a fig WHAT you say, heat index DOES count. Dry heat and wet heat are totally different. Still, 103, without heat index is f’ing hot! High tomorrow is supposed to be 106 Um, OUCH! I read an expected feels like high of 122 I’m hoping I misread something because that’s SCARY! I’m thinking it was 112, and my eyes screwed up, 
. The high for Friday though? 89F. Yeah, I’ll be the dork outside in a sweatshirt going “holy crap, it’s cold!” Reminds me, I need to fill out the form so I can get me an Elmont sweatshirt. I’m going to get a tee and a sweatshirt, so I can wear them on field trips

NOTE: Some storytelling will be done, and the word “PENIS” will be mentioned a few times. I can’t help it, the word is both funny *AND* part of the funniest part of the week!
Shopping With a Friend … My husband is never far from my mind.
I had so much fun shopping with my friend Julie (guest starring in my public bathroom shot). She and I went to Barnes and Noble (coffee, bishes!! Grande White Chocolate Mocha for me, and she had a strawberry banana smoothie, I think it was. No caffeine for the preggo 
). Oh, and apparently, that started the “every male must flirt with Sarah” time! 
I love testing new settings on the camera, and this one is my favorite!! Candles!!
I spent half the day, lounging on the couch, playing some Sims 3, and trying not to nap. Josh came home, and we went to Sam’s. Plans were to schedule an appointment for tire replacement. They don’t do appointments, and starting Tuesday, we get free installation, so we’re going next week for that. But, while we were there, we got activity workbooks for the kids, pencils for school, and a box of 5 reams of paper for school.
Then we went to the mall, had some dinner (Taco Bell, and trust me, I can tell we had it 
). While we were at the mall, we checked out Old Navy. Yeah, I’ll be shopping there for clothes for me 
I held the pants up to me, and I might actually be a FOUR! I’m definitely a six with them. Three different waist-heights, so I’d never have to figure out which I like more. I’d just buy one of each 
. They also have the perfect cuts of shirts and styles of shirts for me! I’m “country prep” . I like collared, button-ups, but I want them in plaids and flannel 
.
After that, we went to Target. People like me should not be allowed in stores when it’s Back to School inventory pile-up time . We’re lucky I got out of the store!!
