Thanks, Annette! And he totally didn't have donuts for breakfast. The brownies he had contained organic eggs!

But what are you doing here? Are you going to work outside the home?

I saw Kevin and your kids at the museum today. It was crazy crowded!

If you feel bad about earning money you don't need, donate it and consider the work your form of community service. Or consider it education.

Or try it for six weeks and see how it feels.
Thanks! You are so cool!

You know, I'd NEVER say another mom was selfish about taking a job like this. I'd encourage her to do it. But I guess we treat ourselves differently, huh?

I'm going to use your six week suggestion. That should take me to about the beginning of May (after I start in late March). I'll evaluate and decide after that.
