It seems like envelopes are missing from wedding. One of the tags fell off of a “gardner” gift – there were like 8 there. SCHOOL Scott & I both need to get in and get checked out for sleep problems (husband thinks, from observation and research, that we both have non-24-hour circadian rhythm disorder) and we’ve got to keep Scott in school (how?!!!) long enough to be diagnosed.
