Soo.. Any fall plans??

How was the Kids drop off's today?

My son went from a smile inthe morning, to a look of pure misery as he walked into that school today. He should be getting out anytime now, I am hoping for a phone call.

On a good note, his teacher is cute, so the in school meetings wont be as bad..

Guidelines show the nom/vol thread is open for 30 days. If there are more than one, then an election will be held and run for 14 days.

Since Pat is the only candidate so far, I would think he will be the next chapter leader.
