Having a cafeteria at Chey's school is a godsend. I love not having to make her lunch every day. Since everything is done electronically there's a mobile app that I can connect to her account. I can add money instantly (because I always forget to send in a check when I get the low balance notice), and the best part is I can check to see what she is buying on a daily basis, which only adds credibility to my motto "Mommy knows everything!" (Bwahahaha...evil laugh)
A few months ago I received a low balance notice, which was strange since I just put money on the account. When I looked at her account, I found out that she was buying the regular lunch, juice (when she was supposed to get milk included with the lunch), and a snack like chips or ice cream...EVERY SINGLE DAY! So, instead of spending $2.65 per day she was spending $5 per day. Little brat didn't think I would find out. Well, now she's limited to lunch only and a snack only on Fridays.
Yesterday before I left to teach she asked me if she can have snack twice a week instead. Here we go again...
Chey: Why can't I have snack twice a week?
Me: Because you can't.
Chey: Why can't I?
Me: Because I said so. (Yes, I said it.)
Chey: That's not a real reason.
Me: Today it is.
Chey: Well, I'm going to need a more SPE-CI-FIC answer.
Me: Please stop talking or you will have ZERO snacks for the rest of the year AND a spanking.
And you wonder why this blog is about wine!
