This summer has slipped right by me. :facepalm_smiley: School starts in 13 days. I have a senior this year. Have done NOTHING about senior pics. He says he does not care about having professional pics done. Marti has offered to take some. But I still think I want professional pics taken, too. Don't want to hurt Marti's feelings though!

Not worried about Alison. She has blossomed in Jr High. But am worried about my youngest, who has trouble making friends and "fitting in." I wish I could ensure he would blossom the same way Alison did.

What I really wish is to hit rewind on this summer and do things in a timely manner!!
Everything will fall into place. I feel your worry and love.

My little boys I watch start school in 15 days. They are my best friends. (one's 4 and the other is 7). We understand each other. bwhwhahahhaa!

What am I going to do with those extra days?

Oh my Lord...I hear what you're saying too...both RJ and Sage start kindergarten this year. Even though I have not been watching them every day since Spencer was born, (we still do sleepovers occasionally and have dinner together when we can) I miss them terribly and hope they will be happy, starting school.

It is hard, all this loving people stuff. :love_heart:

You had a great summer, cat in a bag == Camping, reading , catching up an TV show. Once back in school, timely manner will come to place. Summer is for fun!

We did have a great summer. Had some great family trips. Only an hour or so away, but they were great all the same. I just cannot figure out how it went by so fast! I suppose because we made it a point to go that hour or so away, but there should be more time!

We have college apps, scholarship apps, SO many things coming at us. Just want time to slow down. My babies!! Growing up! :saddd:

Hope Evan's school has good guidance counselors- a Senior best friend.

When I watch videos on YouTube on my Kindle I keep getting a message saying my browser is not compatible and needs to be updated. Some videos work, some don't; its frustrating and arbitrary. When I follow the steps to update browser I get a thumbs up saying I've already done it and YouTube says "you're all set! Enjoy!" ...but same results. I'm in a Catch-22. Any suggestions?

I ran an HTML5 test and my score was lower than adequate, but I'm still able to watch videos, but it's anyone's guess which videos will play.
