[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I just had a conference with Christopher's teacher, and then one with Julia's teacher. This was a total of 45 minutes hearing and being shown evidence of how smart, hard working, well behaved, sweet, nice, good and funny my children are.
I guess I didn't need that Ativan, beforehand, after all. I may actually be turning into a fluffy bunny as I type. Pink. And baby blue.

Yaaaaay!
If you're not in a pollen-filled zone, line dry until almost completely dry, then toss in the dryer for a quick fluff to get the best of both worlds.
I don't use fabric softener. The residue can be irritating, and I wash a lot of toddler clothing and diapers. Which means I use hippie laundry soap. No optical brighteners for me!
Clearly there's a time limit on parent-teacher conferences, because otherwise it would have been multiple hours of hearing how awesome your kids are!
ION, my friend's website that got mentioned in Wired a couple months ago just got namechecked in The Times. [link] That counts as "arriving," right?
Those are my favorite conferences ever. I love telling parents great things about their kidlets.
My DH has a fanatical devotion to Oxyclean. He LOVES it and despite being a sceptical person in most areas of life, feels that extra spponful you add to your washload has a magical ability to make all clothes cleaner. I don't notice a difference, except maybe on gym clothes.
Woe. The towels were NOT done washing, the washer had just stopped, still full of water, for no apparent reason. I hope the reboot fixes it.
It's possible that dryer sheets have advanced since I learned not to use them, but I am ascared to mess with the absorbency of my towels. Hence the liquid fabric softener (Ecover, hippie fabric softener, btw), which should, if anything, improve absorbency along with softness.
Assuming the washing machine drains and rinses and all that good stuff.

I was just coming here to say this. Although I am running out so I may have to suck it up and go back to Cheer.
I am so NOT surprised that Cindy's kids are awesome.
I soaked some horribly stained stuff in OxyClean the other day, and it was amazing. I was pretty sure I was going to have to throw the stuff out.
And covered with pollen.
And ash, if there's a fire nearby.
And mud, if there's a dog...or maybe that's just one particular dog.
