So much for the thought of the day, that fell by the wayside...profoundness suffers greatly getting up at six am and coming home after seven pm every night...at least Friday I can just come straight home although lately I've working on the weekends which officially sucks....I thought maybe I'd get off this weekend but that's not happening...ugh...really, really annoying.

I found a $400 Ranger...I'm half tempted to look at it but it's a regular cab and I already have a truck sitting right now...although that's going to change since she's teaching a class at Owens that the instructor quit three weeks into the term and now it looks like I'll be dropping Beth off three times a week...the truck is at least reasonable on gas (unlike the Merc, which only seems reasonably on the highway...plus it needs plugs/wires since I had a heater hose split and dump coolant on the back of the engine)

The girls have started sports season, this means non-stop running for volleyball and soccer now as well as whatever else they have going on. So somehow I need to shoe horn in work and homework as well as whatever chauffeuring I need to do....weeeeee!

Only possible bright spot - after dropping off three children in the morning, I've realized I could get a 4-passenger vehicle with sufficient interior space...the truck has sat since I can't cram my stuff plus them and their stuff in the cab....in addition to the potential pain of extraction from the back seat...although that's still secondary to no place to put my stuff. Otherwise it would be worth the inconvenience for the gas mileage...
