Last Minute School Shopping
I am not sure how it has happened, but every year since 2010, I have done the first day of school solo. The last 3 years, I took all the kids' "stuff" in before school started - because I worked in the building. They hung out in a friend's classroom - it was a no brainer. But now, my FF is on shift AND I have to do it alone - for real this time! I did all of the shopping - including the last minute procrastination pieces today. Tomorrow, sigh...tomorrow. Tears, endless bags of household supplies much needed school supplies, impatient parents...and I am so not up for it.
So, tonight we are having frozen pizza and Drumsticks for dinner. The supplies are divided up. The new shoes are patiently waiting in the living room - so I don't have to hunt for one of them in the morning. Lunches are packed. Camera battery is charged. And I am ready - for the first day of school pictures and the tears.
My FF promised me breakfast in the AM, he is might have to splurge for a mimosa...
Happy Back to School Day!
