Punishingly Intricate

I'm at work. And I brought donuts. With sprinkles.

I WISHED really hard for donuts to show up at work today and they did not. My powers were evidently mis-directed.

Congrats on the new baby a-coming, Corwood!!! 2nd children are the AWESOME!

So who's at work today?

Sadly me too.

msbelle, that seems odd. But maybe it's because a kid who is at school, by 10:40 has been up for a fair number of hours, so lunch is easier earlier. though why not a snack instead.... I guess it doesn't make much sense.

Also, does this mean all the school stuff has worked out.

ETA happy kprinkle!

My mom says the schedule looks fairly normal to her for elementary. Seemed weird to me but then I realized I've eaten lunch by 11 most days...

Man, having people talk at me all morning long....man. I love them, but shhhhhhh...

edit: Kat! You might, er, keep an eye on the weather. It's potentially funky.

Because books.

Most elementary schools stagger the lunch schedule -- all of the kids won't fit in the cafeteria at once, after all. I don't think any of my kids have ever eaten as early as 10:40, but I know they have had lunch at 11:15. That said, they usually had morning snack, and then lunch, but either way it evens out.

Yay for mac going to school!

I have so much laundry, packing, wrapping, and baking to do today I am paralyzed with the need to sit here and stare into my mug of tea instead.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I've heard tell of the brunch-lunch, because there's only so much room in the cafe or whatever.

OMG, I just got an endless voicemail about going to my HS reunion tonight, which she already knows I don't want to go to! My parents busted me, telling her I'm coming in today. @@

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, I'm ready for lunch now.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone! We're excited, if still a bit surprised.

And happy birthday, Strega!
