FYI

If you wake up at 3:30 am thinking it is 6 and start to pick things up around the house {as quietly as possible} and then realize that you have no milk {and that it is only now 4:30 am}  for the kids when they get up and decide to go to the grocery store {waiting until 5 am} only to find out that they open at 6 am, then you should know that the drive-thru Starbucks in Oregon City {at least 15 minutes away} is open and the 7-11 is also open and sells milk {2 for $5}. 

Just in case you ever find yourself in the same predicament at 5 in the morning.

ps. I will be honest and tell you I left the house for the milk because after realizing I was up too early I knew I would need my coffee and I didn't have any milk {or eggnog for that matter} for MY coffee {little lone the kid's cereal} and I didn't think I could face the day without my coffee.

You are crazy! Can you tell the kids it's toast for breakfast?

When that happens to me, I take the kids through the McDonalds drive through! Just a thought!

What were you doing up at 3:30 am anyway? That would be an ego waffle or starvies kind of morning at my house...however, I understand your need for the latte, which requires MILK!
