Well, maybe not forever, but for the near future, at least.  And it&#8217;s not like it&#8217;s such a hard thing, either.  But I&#8217;ve done&#8230;let me count&#8230;6 sessions times 2 (for am and pm) this year, and 8 sessions times 2 last year, and 1 for each grade the year before that in the spring.  So, that&#8217;s &#8230;.carry the one&#8230;34.  Thirty four times I&#8217;ve gotten to hand out donuts.  And very few of those times have I had anyone offer to help.  Why is that?  It&#8217;s the same moms doing all the programs on the old PTA.  We just switch jobs each year.  We need to recruit some new blood!<\/p>\n<p>But anyway, I&#8217;m glad that I&#8217;m done with the donuts for now.  My kids are sad, because I&#8217;ve usually taken them with me to help, and if not that, I always bring them home a donut each time.  Today, since I wasn&#8217;t feeling all that well and didn&#8217;t want to breathe whatever stomache ache germs I&#8217;ve got brewing in myself on donuts of unsuspecting readers, I let Megan and Natalie wear the plastic gloves and hand out all the donuts.  I sat nearby and watched, and they did a great job.  Cole was off reading a book, which is the point of the whole Dads and Donuts thing, so I didn&#8217;t mind him not helping me.<\/p>\n<p>Today I&#8217;m trying to get my house clean so we can have a bridal shower for Ryan&#8217;s sister Julene! on Saturday.  So, I&#8217;ll go and get back to vacuuming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today marked the last time I am in charge of Dads and Donuts&#8211;Forever!
