Overheard conversation at the library - putting to rest ideas husband have that we only speak of them in their absences

One mother (to another): You know? I bought all the craft stuff. I put it in the specially bought craft box. I fully planned on being engaged and involved, but whenever the kids ask me to get it out I say, “No, no, tomorrow.” I just can’t be stuffed.

I am so guilty of that! I have tons of craft stuff and scrapbooking and bits and bobs and never actually got around to doing anything with them. But they are pretty to look at!
Perhaps I should bring em out for the kids over the holidays?
Nah, couldn’t be stuffed.

Oh, and hi Kin! *waves manically*

Mine’s given up waiting for me and helps himself!
Mind you, the results aren’t too bad so maybe it’s a good thing I’m not involved LOL.

People have craft stuff in craft boxes? And we’re supposed to do this with the kids?

Isn’t that what I pay the school for…isn’t that their job?

I have a file sorter of various types of paper, a box of crayons, some tiny scissors, and a little box of stickers. Voila! Craft!
