the_rckOf course, Cordelia’s school is now collecting books for a used book sale. I need to find out just what percentage of a sale Books By Chance takes as their commission. Their website doesn’t say anywhere I’ve looked so far, and that seems like important information. I didn’t care so much before because getting something seemed better than getting nothing. Based on that information, I may decide to send some of my books-to-be-sold to the school sale instead, but I don’t know. I’m not sure if I want to sort through things again.
Scott’s sister says she’s willing to take Cordelia bra shopping but only if Cordelia’s enthusiastic about going. I think hell will freeze over before that happens. Scott thinks Cordelia can survive with just one bra for the next two or three months, until I can take her shopping. I don’t like that idea, particularly given that she doesn’t think she needs to take it off and wash it from time to time. I’m a bit worried because she’ll have gym starting in April, and that will involve changing in a locker room in front of the other girls in her class. If she only has one bra, they’re going to notice. I haven’t noticed that she smells at all, so I’m less worried about that part.
Cordelia cut her finger on her math folder today. She called it a paper cut, but she also talked at length about all of the things she bled on and how the cut opened up again and again. Right now, she’s using the cut as a reason why she can’t possibly shower tonight. I want her to because of the Bat Mitzvah tomorrow morning. I’m just not sure I’m willing to fight that battle.
Scott’s home, but he hasn’t said whether or not he’s working this weekend. I’m hoping that that means he’s got both days off, but I really have no idea. Cordelia emailed me about an hour ago to ask if her father could give her and her best friend a ride tomorrow. I have no idea at all why she emailed me. Scott was at home already, and he’s more likely to know if he’s available. Kids are weird.
ETA: I was looking in the wrong spot on the Books By Chance website. We would get 30% of the sale price for each book. I need to consider that.
