I was so tired this morning, I couldn't find the motivation for much, but after a warm greeting from a Twitter friend, I felt more positive and ready to get going.
I hopped in the shower, did my morning routine and drove Sissy down to her preschool. There were no other parents around. I thought maybe they had already gone into the school, but I was at least 5 minutes early.
Turns out, a water main broke (or something) and the kids who were already there would be dismissed in about 10 minutes. I know it's ONLY a half a mile drive, but I really wasn't interested in getting a phone call to come back around and pick her up.
I went to all that "getting ready" business for nothing and I have a ton of work to do around the house. Laundry, dishes, bills, assorted paperwork, etc. And now I have a little helper who wants to do crafts with me. ::::le sigh::::
The weird thing is that Buddy's Middle School is right beside the Elementary School that Sissy goes to (this year only, thank my lucky stars) and I haven't heard a peep from the Middle School. This is after learning at least 3 schools in the area have been dismissed because of this "water issue".
Now, I would think - with both schools being side by side - they'd both be affected, amiright? Who knows?
I'll just be glad when this week is over. :-) Yay for three day weekends. Maybe I'll get through half of my ever growing list.
Until tomorrow, hooligans, enjoy your Thursday. Remember about Friday Secrets (and a special photo) for tomorrow: eviltwinswife@gmail.com. :-) It's free and totally private! Take a load off!
Love,
That is odd. Sounds like my middle school they never tell us anything.
ReplyDeletei tried to keep reading after you told me that you were in the shower, but i had to stop to take care of something first...
ReplyDeleteI don't really know that you got up and got going for nothing. I think you did the right thing and can tackle your day instead of putting it off. So, good for you chica!
ReplyDeleteMiddle Schools never communicate. I have the same problem here.
I find it interesting that you mention a special photo tomorrow and follow it up with the phase "take a load off".... hmmmm......
ReplyDeleteGetting ready? You mean you don't just hop in the car in our PJs like I do?
ReplyDeleteOh wait - you need to take her IN to the school to drop her off. Me, I just do the drive by now and nobody needs to know I'm decked out in sweats and ratty hair.
A few years from now, perhaps you'll have the same luxury? I hope so.
Well that sucks big bananas! But u got up & thru ur routine. Hope ur day wasn't wasted. Have a good 3day weekend
