    Default I am looking forward to school starting because...

    I think my electric bill will go down and we will go through much less toilet paper. Is it bad to get excited about these things?

    Guess it would probably be the electric...not sure but what she dosen't sneak the air down thru the day.

    But overall, enjoy having her around when we're not fighting over something. She starts community college but will be at home. It's a one year thing so if she stays home thru it she'll probably move out shortly after. Hard to let go

    I'm looking forward to school starting so that the stupid ice cream truck will stop going up and down my street. I hate that music.

    My older daughter goes back to college over the weekend. I now will have gas in my van when I need it. LOL!!!

    My younger daughter starts her senior year in high school. Can't believe my baby is going to graduate next spring.

    I look forward to it because the beaches (and their respective parking lots) clear out until Thanksgiving/X-Mas break.....

    I have mixed feelings as it is my last kids last year.sigh. It will be nice to keep the remote comrol on the tv and the phone in the cradle.-instead of down under the couch cushions w/ no charge??Oh, I am looking forward to having dishes in the cupboard instead of 1/4 glasses of liquid in various rooms,yuck!!

    Yes to all of the above! My grocery bill, my goodness! My kids eat 24/7! I am also looking forward to the routine of it, knowing where they are, knowing what my work schedule will be, etc.

    My hydro and water bill will go down because my daughter is going to have her 30 minute daily showers at University 6 hours away. We'll have more peace and quiet because my DS won't have anyone to fight with.

    I love having the kids here, miss them when they are at school. But I will enjoy the power bill going down, the food bill going down, not having to wash so many clothes (dd thinks she has to change 3-4 times a day) Plus it is going to be quiet, at least till the baby arrives!
