Thursday was my oldest daughters first day of high school....and I can already smell trouble(I thought it was Mr LPCs socks, but I was wrong [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] )
Back home in VA there is no middle school so they start high school in 8th grade. Somehow shes already been made Varsity Cheerleader for both football and basketball, plays girls basketball and runs track. I got the dreaded phone call with "Mom, I need money!!" It seems her cheerleading gear is gonna run us around 200, track and basketball another 150, plus all the insurance required for them to play sports. When did it get so expensive for a kid to enjoy school??
Then my youngest daughter informs me shes switching private schools and this ones tuition is 120 a month(which isnt bad), 200 for books a year, and 75 admin fee. Plus, my aunt has to take her and pick her up, which is a 45 min drive each way.
Tia has 4 years of high school looking at me, and Veronica is right on her heels....at the rate things are going, Im gonna have to book a room in the poor house soon!!
