I called the Saturn dealership, and they gave me the price for my car repairs.  Only 139.48.  Much less than I thought it would be.  I was even able  to pay by check so I didn't have to add it to my credit card debt. 

(I will most likely have to pay my Hu Hot bill on my credit card as I don't think they take checks and i am pretty sure I won't have enough cash to cover it.)

I will only be paying for six of my kids, since one is on a family vacation and another doesn't want to go, and myself of course.  It will be $8.89  per lunch.  I think beverages are extra.  I'd appreciate it if they would buy their own beverages, but I suppose most of them will not bring money.  That's  the way it usually goes. 

My knee is starting to ache again.  it must be that it does this whenever a weather system is rolling in.  Sigh. 

It's supposed to start snowing tomorrow around 5 pm.  And according to the Yahoo weather thingy, it isn't supposed to stop until Saturday.  Ugh.

Normally I'd be rejoicing if we were looking at a snow day on the last day of school before Christmas vacation, but with the Bolshoi trip hanging in the balance...well....let's just say I am NOT rejoicing.

Ooooh....more good news.  Kim and Ryan went to pick up my car for me as they are aids and I have been in class.  I asked Kim to check for my camera and it was there!!!  Yay!!!!

It is also colder than billy hell, so I am sure the batteries are doornail dead now.  Sadness.  Maybe Susan has a couple of AA batteries she would let me buy.

I can at least take pictures of my kids having lunch.
