Some Questions I hope to have answered

Why is bed time always so stressful?
Why do third graders have so much spelling homework?
How many times do you need to launder dark wash jeans before they stop turning your legs blue?
How do you motivate an unmotivated 12 year old?
Is the possessive of "Cates" "Cates'" or "Cates's" (it's only been my last name for forever)?
Is that the correct use of quotation marks? - I'm thinking NO.
How can we successfully avoid the concession stand during baseball season? - Doc has been asking already - he's NOT playing this year.
Does any one want to buy a generator?
Why, oh why do the schools feel compelled to torture parents by packing them in the gym like sardines and making them endure entire grade level performances when the temperature outside is 72 degrees in FEBRUARY and the staff can't figure out how to turn the heat off after serving a chili supper?
How do you convince a 14 year old that setting off a "works bomb" in the back yard with his 3 little brothers in attendance is "a big deal" even if nobody got hurt?
Will anyone else read this blog besides you?
