We probably still thought we paid too much for things! Inflation is relative, I guess.<br /><br />You have the most adorable grandchildren, and they are all smart and well-behaved. It's great that you got to spend some time with Aryn. I know she is headed to college with a good sports scholarship in a couple of years. Very talented - all of them in their own way. Brag away. I love hearing about their accomplishments.<br /><br />Hope Jim is still feeling well today. You too!!

I heard the first...School has already started here. I heard the first bus go by Monday morning. It's nice having the 'little darlings' *cough* off the roadways in their 4 wheelers and back at the government indoctrination centers, eh, school. *ha ha* I seem to recall, for the most part, I always enjoyed school but we actually had learning then. It seemed so easy to me. 'Course, I enjoyed working too, with a few exceptions.<br /><br />You know why everything, including schooling, is so costly don't ya? Yep. Government. By the government loaning money, it keeps the cost of "education" artificially high. It's also the government's, especially the Federal Reserve's, fault that inflation is so rampant. But, I know I'm preaching to the choir on this one.<br /><br />Y'all are still in our prayers. Hope the good health and days continue. ~:)Sparkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531515666554867421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5812434791964952966.post-72703309304342551022014-08-06T10:31:38.261-07:002014-08-06T10:31:38.261-07:00The loans themselves on my son's higher educat...The loans themselves on my son's higher education was $150, 000. Whew! I can't imagine. I was hoping that he would do better than we did. They are struggling with making ends meet and he's a physicians assistant paying back a doctor's loan value.

But I remember back in 1962 we thought the prices were awful too. <br />I hope your grandchildren have a great school year. They all grow up so fast. It's hard to believe our youngest is going into the 2nd grade. <br />You have a great day.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06930402677344785417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5812434791964952966.post-54767675270179314192014-08-06T08:24:34.035-07:002014-08-06T08:24:34.035-07:00Keeping you and your family in prayer.

I just paid (well..grants and a small loan to cover books) $7,695 for this semester. By the time it is all said in done, it will be near 30,000!!!! First time I personally ever had to go in debt. I paid and worked through college the first time around and it wasn't expensive back then.
