DYK I found a scorpion under the ducks water last night? It was small, like the size of a big bug. Nasty little beast!

Sounds like a plan.

My kids were not at all food focused so I guess that made it a lot easier.

Actually- thinking about it that is a total lie - they were focused on sports and music and science olympiad which totally sucked up every second I was not at work. 10 years flashed by like a tornado.

It is spring break for colleges and DD has a job manning the band office for the week as everyone else has gone.

She got a call from a very irate father demanding that he be removed from every mailing list at the university as he was cutting off his son from all financial and other support. Apparently he ranted for half an hour about how his ungrateful bratty son had turned down a full scholarship in favor of going to this (private) university and then had not actually gone home to visit his family for the year. He also said something about wanting to shoot himself.


DD then rang DH in floods of tears and thanked us for all we had done for her and for supporting her to accomplish her dreams, even when we had doubts. DH was in tears too and had to leave the room (we were at work). I was too but didn't let him know.

Your kids are so worth it.
