nice snow...pretty snow
not so pretty drama at the front door getting ready for school! what a horrifying experience that was!!!
snowpant trauma! i made sure they had hats and mitts monday morning and told them that from this point on they were to be wearing them every day. by tuesday leigha had lost both and today she had none. tantrums and crying ensued because snowpants are "too puffy" "uncomfortable"
i checked connor's boots and everything else a month ago to make sure they were all outfitted for winter they fit then. but today....5 minutes AFTER the school bell rings, we are still getting dressed and his boots are WAHHHH too small!!!! the homework was only almost finished after dinner when it got put away in the very messy craft cupboard instead of the backpack.
and the special classroom dictionary that i promised the teacher to have in his backpack at all times when he wasn't using it so that he could return it MONDAY ....just got remembered a minute ago. that was in the bedroom under a pile of blankets.
so with all THAT i didn't have time to fill out the skating permission forms...or find my chequebook to pay for skating trip. that effin' school requires several cheques every month for this that or the other thing...
then my client showed up 5 minutes early and i was still in my jammies
THAT has NEVER happened before. i'm so embarrassed.
PHEW!!! got all that out. i'm going to eat some motrins now. before i pull my hair out. or barf
fun times!!!
