<p>If my daughter’s feet are any indication her dorm room will be worse than her brothers! We were at a friends last night and she was the only one in the living room and had her shoes off. The rest of us walked back in to a HUGE stink! :)<br>
My son just discovered the carpet stuff you sprinkle on and then vacuum up and it smells nice. Said it was the “best thing ever.”<br>
I should have bought stock in Fabreeze a few years ago.</p>
<p>Just minutes ago, I had the conversation with my d about laundry service and she says she wants it. Since she will also need the dry cleaning portion. </p>
<p>I have to be honest, we have a magic well, we deposit clothes down this chute and magically they appear out in the hallway, folded, neatly and on hangers…WOW.</p>
<p>Ok…my grandmother who at the age of 87 needs something to do, washes each day, I havent done a load since 1985 when i moved in. Ok so have bought 2 washing machines but i dont really mind.</p>
<p>I guess it isnt fair to now make my d, do her own when I have never done a load for her.</p>
<p>(Ok…joking aside, i have done it twice, both times grandma was in the hospital…but d does her own clothes at summer camp, she has a clue but only 2 per summer—lol)</p>
<p>Just my 5 cents today. :-)</p>
<p>Just thought some of you would love to have a “washing clothes” laugh—lolol</p>
<p>rofl! 
I love magic wells, don’t have any. Hmm… only if I can borrow one…</p>
<p>Regarding the parent fund or annual fund: Do try to give $25 a year if you can. Participation rates are a big deal in getting the larger donors to contribute. You might think that your small donation won’t help much, but those small donations really do have a big impact in helping out your school. I am a boarding school parent, and have been doing some phone call fundraising for the school, so have gotten a little of the inside scoop from the development officers.</p>
<p>I should’ve bought stock in Renuzit - since S and roommate always had at least 3 Super-Odor Killers open full bore in their room.<br>
With athletic bags unopened for a few days…the smell was enough to knock a buzzard off a ****wagon! peeeeyou.</p>
<p>As far as the Annual fund - anything you can give helps! Now that my S has graduated, we give more than when he was there and also my company matches the donation I make - I also can specify where my donation goes and I always elect financial aid. If it wasn’t for FA, my S would not have had the opportunity to attend his BS.</p>
<p>I agree about the Annual Fund. Although we were not in a position to give much, I volunteered to make calls and gave $100. In my opinion, making the calls is just one very small way to say thanks for the FA we receive.
