That&#8217;s 9* C for my foreign friends. And that&#8217;s INCONCEIVABLE for Texas. We should be enjoying high 80&#8217;s, if not downright <del>scorching next to the Sun</del> mid-90&#8217;s. Those of you up north, you have my pity.</p>
<p>Nothing like being told at the last minute that I need to make graduation announcements. Thank goodness I know how to make cards, have stamps, and a printer. Now to spend <em>days</em> doing the same thing over and over. Isn&#8217;t that insanity? Or being a mom? Or are they interchangeable?</p>
<p>My youngest is testing this week, and she was instructed to mark &#8220;A&#8221; on her ethic background. Upon calling the school, I was told &#8220;H&#8221; is not an option because it isn&#8217;t an ethnicity. No one could explain why she was told to mark Asian. To the best of my knowledge, Genghis Khan never set foot on Puerto Rico. I said as much, and was asked, &#8220;Who?&#8221; I cried.</p>
<p>I think I need to eat a lot of chocolate today. That&#8217;s the best cure 😉</p>
