In Case You Were Wondering

So, yeah, it's been a busy day.

The church we attend decided to make up and send out care packages for local service men and women serving overseas, and today was the day to pick up stuff that the students at the local schools collected. Both Husband and I made trips, and for both of our pick ups, La Tahoe was packed to the roof.

Today was also the day of the Halloween parties at the elementary school, and I was one of the moms helping out with Son's third grade class. I had to actually raise my voice to get the hooligans to sit down at one point, and Son told me later that two of his friends said "Boy! Your mom is mean!"

The other moms appreciated it, though, and when they looked at me in a sort of stunned way I just shrugged and said "I used to teach high school, it's not so different."

Anyway, while I was herding third graders, Husband took Daughter to the doctor. She has a mild case of bronchitis!

And, probably the most disheartening news of all, the teachers in our school district have issued a strike notice.

I fear I'm starting to sound like a Liberal....impeach! Impeach! Impeach the superintendent! Hey hey! Ho ho! The Superintendent has got to go!
