I took time out of my busy day of:
1. Avoiding a training manual I am supposed to be writing, but am not.
2. Folding laundry. (it is still in the dryer)
3. Changing the girls' bedsheets. (not happening)
4. Learning how to burn pictures on to a CD in order to have a more organized computer
(ostensibly to give myself a better work space)
5. Learn how to download songs on my anniversary-present-ipod (it is still in the packaging)
...to go to the school for lunch with the girls.
They see me, and suddenly one feels sick...and the other one cries.
Remind me not to try to be such a good mother by visiting them again.
What was I thinking anyway?
My mother never visited me for lunch at school.
And I turned out relatively normal.
In fact, come to think of it,
there was this one girl at school, whose mother always met her for lunch,
and I secretly thought that perhaps the kid had an impediment.
I could just kick myself for being such a hovering mother.
Yuck.
In fact, while I am at it,
I should just kick myself for many other things.
PS. It is by total coincidence that
I wrote this exactly one year ago.
