Keeping Elmer's in business

Yesterday we picked up Rion's school supplies. The list was pretty normal. Crayons, markers, scissors, etc. He also needed glue. Eight sticks of glue. Oh, and a bottle of glue. Apparently they do a lot of gluing in Kindergarten. He also needs a pair of headphones which was something I never needed. Then again we didn't have classrooms full of computers. Remember Oregon Trail? That game rocked. If we were lucky the teacher would let us play it once a week. I also talked Rion into getting a cheap plain backpack. I'm going to see if iron-ons will work on it. I told him he could put anything he wanted to on it. He wants Tonka vehicles on it. The iron-ons probably won't work and I'll end up getting him another backpack. That's usually what happens. I try to save a little money, but it always ends up costing me more.
