I'm in a pretty good mood

• Gymboree's Holiday line is cute. And the train vest doesn't have an Xmas tree on it - why trains are associated with Xmas I'm not sure - maybe the Polar Express Movie and Book?
• Went to Alan's back to school night last night at daycare. All agree he's ready to move up except for Potty training. He doesn't like Tuesday's Macaroni and Cheese lunch as much as the others, so I should pack one for him. He also runs over the other kids to get to the bike or car outside (sadly). But they are working with him a little extra since he's the oldest in the room.
• I also ran into the 2 mom's who helped me with transportation last year. Turns out Christine (the one who did it at the beginning of the year) has a friend who baby sits across the street from her and was looking for $. She'll be able to take Alan to and from (she is behind the school). I'll meet her tommorrow to confirm
• I think we finally get our systest environment 20 days late today. So I can close a lot of bugs out. Yeah!
• Tonight is Back to School at the Public School. With transportation hopefully resolved I don't have to complain as much.

Better wake Alan up and get him ready!

More news

Not so good news

Got in late. Starbucks was so slow this AM (and this is usually the unbusy one)
New system NOT ready, still

Good news
Mark is taking Alan today, except for his PSD class - no daycare.
Mark called me that he found a TV stand, so we'll be able to set up our bedroom TV again! (Walmart, 20.00 - nothing fancy, but it should work!)

Oy!

Mark calls me in a panic. He went to the bathroom and while he was there, Alan spilled a huge bottle of chocolate milk on the living room futon bed. Did my best to talk him through clean up - he's washing the sheet and blanket now.

Hopefully my MIL will be by later to help him. I guess it could have been worse, but he does panic when things spill or get wrecked for some reason.
