Ten.One Thousand, Six Hundred & Forty-Two

1. Late getting downstairs.

2. Last package of ramen. I need to add these to the list.

3. Hashbrowns and bacon for them. I check my watch. There is still time.

4. I get them out on time - early. New episode of the podcast. Something about a levitating nun.

5. I look in the rearview mirror and see a face I don’t want to see.

6. I tell him that I keep telling my husband that I can’t imagine working in a more beautiful place. “Does it get old?” “I hear it doesn’t.”

7. I was overthinking it.

8. But what is it that we’re doing?

9. Losing my voice.

10. Maybe the most exciting 8th-grade basketball game I’ve ever seen.
