oops......

He he he...I kind of didn't get out of bed this morning...oops. If you are a teacher and are reading this, sorry! I know today is a big day at school, but I totally cannot help it, I never woke up. Paul has today of from work, so we DID stay up extra late....of course, HE is sleeping in all nice and cozy...and I guess I did, too. I cannot blame my alarm clock, I do not use one. I always just wake up when I am supposed to, except for today. Well, occasionally one of the first trip kid will come in and get me up, but I usually am already awake....

I thought perhaps there was a snow day today, because no one had gotten me up. But no, no snow day. It IS a day that I do not mind keeping the younger ones home, however...the school is having a LOCKDOWN. A practice drill for that day which might happen, the day when an angry student comes in with a machine gun.....so this drill has all the teachers locking the kids into the classrooms for a half hour, out of sight of the door, keeping quiet, cell phones off....and um, excuse me if I am too Mommy-ish, but does this not sound terrifying to the kids?

So I am not too sad about sleeping in, not too sad at all....I just don't know what I shall say to the school nurse when she calls and asks if the kids are sick....

I haven't taken Rosie-The-Bad-Dog out yet, I turned on the computer to see if perhaps there was the ever-exciting Snow Day, then I ended up here.....oops again.

That poor dog is going to pee in her cage, so I shall be merciful....I get to go out in the new snow....yes, we got even more last night....
