good morning!

we got out of bed when we felt like it, except dh, who was rushed along because everyone else was up and hungry and we were going out to breakfast. there was a pancake b-fast to benefit the local food bank. the kids had carbs and more carbs - pancakes and biscuits, but no eggs, sausage, or gravy. ds1 had ketchup on his pancakes and his biscuits.

the best part was that we sat with a work friend of mine from the fabric store whom i haven't seen since she got pregnant (by surprise) a few months before i did and then she quit because she already had 4 kids, 2 with special needs and she needed her weekends to rest more than she needed the pitiful pay and excess fabric. we talked and talked. you know those people you can just talk to for hours a time? you know, being an introvert, i need some extroverts like that in my life. there are other introverts who are my friends and we can be comfortable even when silent, but a good old gab session works, too. we used to get sidetracked and just chat when we worked together instead of keeping busy. bad us!

anyway, where was i? oh i haven't seen her or talked to her in such a long time, so i didn't know that the girl they told her about on her ultrasound turned out to be a boy. surprise!
