Cheerleader Day Care

Called SGF at the last minute asking if she needed me to take her oldest to school today. Her sigh of relief blew my hair back - through the phone. Good to be of use.

I was Misterpher's Show and Tell today. Yeah, it's pretty mushy that the theme was "Something You Love." And yeah, it was late yesterday afternoon when he asked me to go. But I was thrilled that he decided "Something You Love" day was better than "something that starts with an "S" and fits in a sock" day.

So I sat in the corner knitting until called upon. Did my thing, got a hug and giggles, went on my way. Which included wandering about the school grounds until I remember that I had parked the heap a block away so we could walk to school. Yeesh.

Pulled out of VM because I need to let LOML have his time on the stage and my kids need me more. I really want/need to see a Kabloey basketball game, read the kids to sleep and not spend 200 unavailable dollars on a babysitter I don't have.

Now, That Boy and Architect's Daughter are here for the afternoon. Cheerleader-Save-Your-Butt to the rescue.

And today I had to save mine.

Very worth it. Established and acted according to my priorities. Went shopping at TJ's for PB and flowers.

Currently burning lunch.
