Fiscal responsibility and karma

I haven't posted anything in a while, due to my blah blah blah..... Let's just say I've gotten a bit lazy. I have a whole bunch of updates, and most of them have to do with kids. There were bithrdays, ballet recitals, and a good dose of cuteness to make you go "Awww!" until the rest of the summer. The Almost ^ Years Old is now in summer camp and enjoying it greatly. They are spending half of their days in the pool, and the other half doing fun things, with field trips every week. So, on to the main title. The 5 Year Old couple of weeks ago went to the wave pool.
