My mission (which I already accepted) was to purchase school uniforms, underwear & socks, and shoes for 2 children for under $150.

Book Club field trip!
Well, I added a new element to Book Club- field trips. I also dropped it to 3 days/week instead of 5. Five days/week was way too much. It made me feel like I was still teaching. I didn’t feel like I was on vacation. Anyway, I digress.
