My big focus this morning was what type of yogurt to pack for lunch.  Kids were running about here and there, while getting ready for school.  Me?  I needed to choose my yogurt wisely.  Our fridge has a great selection.

Finally, selecting “Mixed Berry,” I was happy to find that most everyone was ready for the trip to school.  Two children were in the car and I could have sworn that I heard the other one say, “I’m going to go to the bathroom first.”

I stood in the kitchen and I waited.

Tick, tock.

The dog looked at me and I waited.

Tick, tick.

I considered another cup of coffee and I waited.

Tick, tock.

I felt the need for a late morning nap and I waited.

Tick, tock.

What was taking my child so long in the bathroom?

I decided to busy myself and load something into the car.

Opening the garage door, I soon realized that my son was actually out of the bathroom and his mom had taken him to school.

Ugh, best not to be too distracted by an overwhelming yogurt selection in the A.M.

Tick, tock.

I hustled toward the car and as I hurried into the driver’s seat…  Bam!  My head smacked into the top of the car.  On the brightside, maybe that will knock some sense into me and help me keep track of what family members have actually left the house.  Good thing “mixed berry” yogurt supposedly cleanses your inner being of stupidity.  Bet you didn’t know.  Also, I bet you didn’t know that prolonged contemplation of yogurt can be hazardous to your health.  Now, you know.  Pick wisely (and quickly).
