W&J started its fall semester on Labor Day. In order to offset the fact that we have to work on the holiday, the college president throws a big campus picnic. Emily got a ladybug balloon bracelet.
About a year or so ago, we found that there was a leak in the underground water main in front of our house. We called the water company, which came and promptly and dug up our front yard to fix the problem. Fortunately, the leak was on the water company's side of the connection, so it didn't cost us anything. They fixed it up, but apparently very poorly because the leak returned again this summer, and our front yard got torn up again. Big surprise, they screwed up their part again, so we didn't have to pay this time either. I suppose every time they raise the water rates to cover their costs, we're paying.
Other than this and the beginning of classes, not much of monumental importance occurred this week.
