Breakfast of Champions!!!

7:44 AM---I find myself completely engrossed in thought as I am driving down the road. I had already reviewed my entire night, every medication, Rash, mouth sore, Blood Product, central line, and lab value. This is often my morning ritual with such a long drive home, but now my mind moved to a more pressing manner---Bryce's Medicine Man report. Yes, you read that correctly--a report----IN KINDERGARTEN. Normally I am not one to procrastinate, but with my schedule the report was left until the second to last minute. I had already printed out pictures photocopied stories and bought a coloring book for Bryce to color. Wow, this Kindergarten stuff is a lot of stinkin' work.
7:56AM--Chuggin' along Parley's Summit I suddenly realize that I have just comsumed an entire bag of M&Ms and a can of Dr. Pepper for breakfast!!! As you can see I am learning nothing in my nutrition class.
10:34 AM--Still awake just waiting for Bryce to get on the bus and hoping that his report makes it to his class unscathed! I don't think I have ever stressed out about any of my own homework this much. Good thing I had that AWESOME breakfast to keep me going!!!

I can't count the times I have eaten cookies for breakfast. Heck, who cares? As long as it keeps us going--that's all that matters. I am not looking forward to Kindergarten--it sounds like a lot of work at such an early age. Oh well, I am convinced Makell is already smarter than I am. I hope you guys have fun at Disneyland-- your kids are going to love it! :)

A report for kindergarten is just wrong! The best thing about this story is that YOU are the one to eat the M&Ms and Dr. Pepper for breakfast and not Bryce. (teehee)Plus you stayed up past 10:34. I'm so proud of you.
