wow, so I am missing the party...
good laugh, at Pima's ring around the collar reference, great advice about the Tide to go, shoe and I would add basic sewing kit(DS can sew a button/snap back on if need be...)also suggest: pizza pan, cutter & oven mitt(DD has been the hit of the dorm for having the basics...it can even double as a break and bake cookie sheet)
PE clothes, wear them into the shower, wash as your remove - hang dry in room...shampoo will be fine. DS only has 1 pair of compression shorts...does this everyday with those too.
Also think when my youngest (DD 15,sophomore) leaves it will be different, but she may live here and commute - still time - but I do enjoy having more time to be with DH and look forward to the next part of our marriage -- empty nest....
Scouts, band, color guard, swimming, soccer and all that was great too.
Welcome Cowsort10, sometime next week works for me -- but wouldn't that be close to the March 1 thing(THANK GOODNESS FEBRUARY IS THE SHORTEST MONTH!!!
)
and finally, yes, my DS asked me to start running with him way back when he got started. I laughed so hard I hurt myself. Good for you Patent for going to the gym with him and building some great memories for BOTH of you
almost forgot: Pima, why sort those colors, do you really think they bother at school? DD does 2 types of loads: white and everything else.....
