    Default Been busy thats why I have been MIA..

    Bil and Sil arrived Thursday night for ods's high school graduation. He graduated Friday night. It was a lovely event and he graduated with high honors. As an high honor student he had to escort dh and I across the gym and we sat in a 'vip" section.
    Saturday was spent entertaining the in-laws and Sunday we are a graduation party for ods. My BIL and SIL were very generous with ods. They gave him a dorm fridge and a check for $500. They told him they will give him $500 a yr while in college to help buy books. All together with that and cards he received etc, he wound up with $1,300 which is all going to help pay for his first yr of college.
    I am exhausted with having company, his party and graduation so today I spent part of the day napping and part trying to put my house back together. Now I can check on the forums and get frugal again because this past week or so has not been frugal
