The back-to-school sales start right after Independence Day around here, but there are still people in the stores with school supply lists the night before the first day of school. And as soon as most of the schools are back in session, even before the dust has settled, we go straight to Halloween with candy, costumes and decorations.

I did shop a bit at the back-to-school sale, though. I bought a cute note pad to put by the phone in the bedroom, because I'm always in need of one in there. I threw out some crappy old pens that didn't write anymore, and bought a package of new ones. So-- for the time being, I have paper and a working pen by both telephones. We'll see how long that lasts, though.
