\tI have to be honest. The school year has not gotten off to a great start. I want it to have. I like to pretend that it has. Especially around Kaitlyn. I don\u0092t want my little black cloud to float over her head, too. But, there it is.<\/p>\n
\tReally, this morning was sort of the icing on the cake of a crappy week. And it\u0092s only Wednesday. Leading up to hump day, we had: waking up at 4am Monday when Bill did so he could catch a flight that he missed (he caught a later one), going to turbo kick with a headache only to sweat it out in a room with a broken a\/c, the tv in the family room stopped working yesterday. That\u0092s not to mention last night\u0092s homework. It took us two hours and we still didn\u0092t get to it all. (I made Kaitlyn finish the last bit this morning. I am mean.) <\/p>\n
\tThen came this morning. It was raining, so I drove Kaitlyn to the bus stop. Since the bus comes not especially near our house. When the bus was leaving the neighborhood just before us, the kids all huddled at their stop. And the bus zipped past our neighborhood. Again. The driver has made this mistake before. Last time the kids were on the bus and I can only assume they pointed out their desire to go home. Today there was no one there to point out her goof up. So she just skipped us. Never realized her mistake. Never came back to get the kids. Sitting in the car fuming, I called the school district\u0092s main office. The woman took my name and number and said she\u0092d \u0093try to find the transportation director.\u0094 He is yet to call me back. Another parent who called actually got to talk to someone in that department and was told the driver said she just forgot and hopes not to do it again. I\u0092ll just say, I\u0092m glad she\u0092s not a doctor. <\/p>\n
\tI realize there are far bigger problems in the world. I\u0092ve faced them. But right now, this week, with Bill gone, this was just almost more than I could take. Maybe a better response from the school district (like any response) would have helped.<\/p>\n
\tNow I\u0092m going to go to the Y to lift weights and hope that the a\/c is fixed. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
