ok......this is how crazy my morning was.
i woke up at 6am. well; that's when my alarm went off. Of course i hit snooze once.....ok twice. so now it's almost 6:30am. i woke my youngest daughter Emily up for school. Her older sister, Paige, was up at 5:30am. She's one of those morning people. Emi and i are NOT! anyway, dragging our heals to get going we finally leave the house at 7:30. the walkway to the garage is all ice so i almost fall 3 times. (the reason for that to be signifigant is that i broke my foot last March by falling on the ice. i didnt just break it a little either.............i broke every bone across the arch of my foot) anyway, moving on. We get on our way. as i'm driving i realize there aren't that many cars on the road. i chalk it up to we had that freezing rain last night and maybe not as much over flow morning traffic. i get to the high school to drop Paige off and she gets out. i drive away and look in the parking lot to see only 4 cars parked in the lot and at the same time my cell phone rings and it's Paige...........she's like, "do we have school today?? the halls are all dark and nobody is here!" I immediately circled around and picked her up. I called the office to find out what was going on. there wasn't anything on the radio this morning that would indicate any cancellation of school. the office lady picked up the phone and i explained that i was just at school and was wondering what was going on. Apparently i wasn't the only one to have called, she laughed and said there was a 2 hour school delay this morning. she went on to add that the only place i would have found that information was on channel 4 news.............way at the bottom of there screen or on there web site online. i thanked her and we continued home. Realizing that we all could have slept in for "2 hours", i decided to treat the girls to a cinnimon bun at McDonald's. i didn't even concider that school could possibly be cancelled or delayed so why would i have checked online at the web sight. and as for the channel 4 news.....it's very rare for me to turn on the television in the morning at all. the result of that is that we went to school and came home again..lol today is my day off. a chance to get appts done and of course homework!! i called JoMaJi, the salon i work at, and moved my color appointment to 10:00am (since i now have to take the kids to school again at 9:30....and now have to pick up two of her friends for a ride) the gym will have to wait until after my hair appt is done. then i'll probably stop in at my mom's for a bit. i also have a few errands to run while in Sheboygan so i'll do that too and before i know it I'll be picking the kids back up from school. this is how crazy my life can be. what are the kids doing with there extra hours before school? (because you are reading what i'm doing ) Paige is in her room on her computer and on her cell phone texting.........Emi is working out on the Wii Fit. she's running with hand weights. i think she'd do that all day long if she could. i cant' believe that it is almost 9am already............almost time to take the kids to school.Thanks for listening to my ramblings about my crazy life! c-u in class............:)

  1. Dee- 3rd time must be a charm, I have been trying to post a comment, but couldn't get logged in!!! I had to chuckle when I read your blog! Don't you hate it when your scheduled gets screwed up, especially on your day off! It's a good thing that you were off though, you were able to get your daughter and friends to school the 2nd time on time! I hope your day got better and that your yummy cinnamon buns were good!
