What a crap-tastic Monday!
Well, we were all just gettin' by and sickly anyways. I went into work early (5:30) driving the horrible-stick-shift-monstrosity. Matthew calls me and the bus driver never showed. I checked my cell and she had left a voicemail, the bus had broke down!
So, Matthew dropped J off at the day care since he had to get to work on time, and I sat at work feeling guilty for him not making it to school, and also feeling like I couldn't breathe!
So, I left as soon as I possibly could manage, and drove that awful stick-shift-monstrosity to the day care, got J to school, with no backpack. See, Matthew didn't leave the backpack because there was over $100 in candy sale money in it, and also because he really didn't think I would be able to leave work.
But I did, and I get to the daycare and they tell me they wouldn't have minded taking him! Ugh.
So, T is feeling really bad and I took her out of the day care too, and we headed up the mountain. That's right... up Signal Mtn., just me, my sickly-sleepy girl and the stick-shift-monstrosity. I made it through sheer willpower and found Matthew and got my beloved car back from him, complete with carseats and one awol backpack.
We went happily back down the mountain, came home, and sacked out. She was just not able to stay awake, but not coughing like me and J were. We picked him up a little bit before the bell rang and came home and we all 3 just vegged out, slept, and waited for Matthew to get home.
I think I am going to have to stop carpooling and take the kids to the bus now.. at least I have a few vacation days left for late buses.
