For no apparent reason this morning I woke up early and lay staring at the ceiling. OC was so excited for her first day of First Grade today, she was up and dressed at 6 am.
Oh, boy!
Then she came downstairs to snuggle with me. She read a couple of easy readers aloud, eventually I fell asleep for all of five minutes, then we got up.
I don't know what to think. It's first grade, but it's almost like she's leaving the house for college or something. What am I going to do without herall day long??? Oh, don't mind me. I'll think of something.
Before she got up, I took a pregnancy test. I was a whole two days late, but, I couldn't wait any longer to find out. I need to know how long I have to keep drinking. This is important information to ascertain. No kidding, as I was peeing on the stick - literally mid-stream - my period started. Lovely. That was the moment I was glad I had bought the generic brand, the kind with two tests.
*sigh
The first day of First Grade breakfast includes a side of the comics page. Add a cup of coffee for the first day of second grade, but coffee AND a cigarette will not be until you start high school, missy.
The girl...
...her cat, and her back pack.

Yay for first grade! I hope she has a fantastic day and loves her class! I adore her boots!
Beautiful!
Hmmm, the test...are you trying?
I just came by after your comment at my place. I grew up in Eugene and then moved across the country to marry a graphic designer. Reading your profile, particularly the books and movies it felt a bit like our pages had rubbed off on one another.
Thanks for stopping, I'll be back!
Woohoo! Welcome back to free time! :)
I'm glad you bought the cheap tests too - that's the kind of thing that would irritate me.
I love her boots and the cat's expression! Hee!
We have a new first grader in our family too. It's a very exciting time!
