Connor will be starting 1st grade in a few days. In the chaos, I managed to get his hair cut by someone other than his 2 year old sister. I was able to pick up all of his school supplies in one fell swoop. I bought 4 new shirts for him (all on clearance!). We even managed to get new shoes for him. Anything that you can purchase while shopping with small children deserves a huge amount of recognition. One of these days, at a guild show and tell, I am going to stand up and say "I refused to buy candy for the kids in the checkout line at the grocery store this week.'' instead of showing a quilt...I bet I get a standing ovation.
I remember thinking when he finished school this last spring, that I would be able to get some things done now that I don't have to get up early to get him off to school. HILARIOUS! Now I am thinking that it would be nice to get some stuff done now that I will be getting up early to get him off to school. My brain fell out when I was a small child, you know, the part of the brain that controls reason. So now I have to get by with what I have left up there.
I am going to go take a shower.
