Exciting, Hil, but def would give me insomnia!! I'd probably also be waking up every 30 minutes all night, afraid my alarm would suddenly weirdly not work. I hope you can be more chill than I would be!!

We've got Matilda's first day of 4th grade tomorrow. She's had her outfit picked out for several days, assembled and put carefully aside. Her backpack is prepped with new supplies, lacking only her lunch.
JZ and Emmett and I will take her in for her first day.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Yeah, that's pretty much what I'm doing. This orientation isn't required, but it seems like it will have some useful information. And the person organizing it asked about dietary restrictions, for the lunch, and I said that I was vegan, so I'm wondering what I'll get. I'm betting salad.

Maybe some hummus?

Possibly pasta.

I'll cross my fingers and hope for pasta, but the odds suggest salad.

I once got served a block of tofu. No sauce, no seasoning, not cut up, just an entire block of tofu, put on a grill long enough to get grill marks.

You're going to have to start traveling with your own bottle of sauce, I think.

Hil, I hope tomorrow goes well and you get a surprisingly tasty lunch.
Good luck to Matilda in the 4th grade. I hope the classroom assignment goes better than expected.
Thank goodness for friends who show up with food, don't mind when you excuse yourself for an hour to feed the baby, and then leave early when they realize you're ready to fall down from exhaustion.
Also, thank goodness for my mother who washed all of our sheets and blankets after ltc hilariously peed all over everything when TCG was changing her diaper.

Our wings are not tired.
Hil, I hope the orientation goes much better than expected. Whee! New school!
I strongly suspect that Matilda's first day of school outfit will be spectacular. 4th grade, sigh.
Aww, ltc initiated daddy right away. Well done! Let TCG know he caught a bit of a break with having a daughter. Boys also get the ceiling and your forehead. DH is jealous of course. He wanted a daughter so he could terrorize boyfriends.
Yay for caring friends and mom! My mom stayed with me for a bit and my MIL was around a lot. Extra help and baby loving was a good thing.
