Cool Day
Today was also in the 50's, which has made for a nice change. I was able to leave the AC off, and I hope not to have to turn it back on this year. Maybe I can wait a couple weeks before turning on the furnace, we'll see. Eric says it's supposed to warm up tomorrow. We got our first savings account bank statements for the kids today. About 3 months ago we set up savings accounts for each of the kids, something we'd neglected to do for Sam, and when Awyn received a couple of checks, we thought we should do something for both of them. Sam's was started with a travel reimbursment from my former job. They each earned some interest on their accounts, Sam got 32 cents and Awyn 23 cents. They also get savings bonds once a month. Hopefully this will be enough to get them into college when they grow up. Considering how the cost of an education is rising, they'll probably have to get jobs to help out the college fund, but hopefully won't wind up with the student loan debt that Eric and I have.
