Pollen, money, birthdays, Easter and track....

First of all...The pollen. Oh my every single year. Most trees are out but the hard woods are not. Poor Joe. He suffers during this season and with his track schedule he is really out in it. There are literally clouds of pollen that he runs through. Even the heavy hitting allergy meds barely work. Sad for him.

Not sure I updated on my cash stash last week but I was able to stash another 200.00 away. I did good with my menu and budget. Kids are learning that they have to save for things they want and when it's $60.00 shorts, well, that involoves some saving. I think Jack did inquire about a job so that's good. It's time for him to get a little job. Not sure I'll be able to save as much this week because we have Kate's birthday, Lauren's birthday and Alex's birthday along with Easter in the next 10 days!

Joe ran an amazing mile last night is is now a member of the sub 5 club. That was his goal and he did it. We know he came in 2nd but the hosting school messed it up and has it at 3rd by 6 100ths of a second. There were no medals last night but instead of 3rd in the state he'll be 4th....Whatever. He did amazing. Rick and I were literally jumping up and down! We're super excited for him to run for Hoover. Coach Doran has been so great at Bumpus and I know Coach Hinds will be fabulous too!
