I want to write, but after the day that was yesterday, words are few. For the sake of our family diary of sorts here, I'll just leave you with bullet points. If you're coming across my blog as a regular, this may not be a post you want to read.
- Yesterday... First Day of School for Quiet Tiger.
- New school... A local charter school, hoping this will be a better fit for her emotional/behavioral needs
- Warm but rainy at the bus stop
- Buses ran 20 minutes late
- I run to a day at the office
- Boys start homeschool loosely, doing what they can without me.
- Office is quiet all morning but picks up slightly in the afternoon.
- I leave at 3:15 to see if I can meet the bus home.
- Pouring rain
- Bus is 30 minutes late.
- Quiet Tiger comes home looking like a drowned rat because of waiting outside for buses
- The girl changes clothes and we learn that she did take control and wet her pants a small amount on the bus ride home.
- We find something sticky on our massage chair in the living room and no one takes responsibility
- Super E later coughs up that he lied and got Silly Putty on the chair.
- Jay and I run out for his Diabetes Education Class, giving the kids instructions for dinner and bedtime
- Class runs 2 hours, which we weren't expecting.
- Came home to a house that smells like gas. 911 called and PD and FD arrive.
- Stood outside in the rain for 30 minutes until the all-clear was given.
- Came back in at 9:00pm to a smelly house apparently with sewer back-up.
- Running faucets and pouring water down our basement drain
- Mama wants to cry
After our summer was horrid enough, this is how our school year starts? Seriously, God? I'm so exhausted. Starting school completely burned out can't be good for anyone.
