I don't know if I've ever been more ready for the last day of school! These kids have worn me out. I think I'm just most looking forward to taking a nap around 2 p.m. every day. That's when this wall of exhaustion hits me and I want to curl up in our wonderful bed and snooze. Today I came home around 5 and slept until 7:30. It was lovely.

I found a new love for Fig Newtons today, too. Absolutely nothing sounds good during lunchtime, so I don't want to eat, but when I don't eat, I feel more sick. It's a vicious cycle. I was at Brookshire's picking up a cake and other things for a baby shower we were throwing at school, and I saw them on the shelf. They saved the day. Now, who knows if they'll actually sound good tomorrow for lunch...
