SERIOUS?! I'm feeling like a sucker for booking a cat 3 to begin with - am I? Please don't answer that my day has been terrible I'm fragile

If I had the money, I would do it! DH spent too much of it this year though.

So...guess who calls my house at 11:54PM. Yes - 11:54PM. No - not 11:54 AM, 11:54 PM......that wacko teacher that I've complained about before...

....I'll break this into numerous posts to help hit our 70K goal.

You must be kidding!!! That is insane...totally insane!!!!!!

Our Hallmark store only has the Disney crocs for kids....green kid crocs with Mickey heads...but none for adults.

Ours doesn't have the Disney ones yet but I ordered the ones from shoebuy for DD - the green ones (my subtle nod to everyone here!) and the cool thing is that company is out of MA. I got the order immediately.

Of course DD said - uhm Mom those aren't Disney colors! I said yes they are - and she replied "Not one of the originals Mom" OY! She said I could have gotten her red.

I did purchase croc socks and I admit those are comfortable.

Can I be in the club - no docs here!

AFter the day I had...not getting teh docs I was supposed to have today, couldn't even make me think twice about it.

I'm getting mad...but ugh! Just don't have the energy to think about it anymore!

By the way .....Kristina was right. (And I knew this alll along, despite what Andy might tell us...she's always right)

Ahhh - so that is why he was rushed home to Australia when they were at WDW. The guy Sam was pretty good though.

 

[klineyqueen]

You guys are the best!!! HAve I mentioned that tongiht?!!

 

[Bella2000]

Just don't have the energy to think about it anymore!

That is the point I am at with work. I am completely and utterly burnt out.

 

[klineyqueen]

phone - oh I just got your message and i'm callingto let you know that we ran out of time and there won't be a quiz tomorrow.


me - do you know what time it is?

phone - oh - did i wake you?




This is a person teaching my child.

I'm mad.

I'm sick to my stomach.

I'm at a loss for words. .... can't ya tell?


And guess who will be getting a phone call from me in the AM?

Ms. Principal!!!!


DH said - there is something wrong with that lady.

okay...end of my rant....


can I just tell you all how glad I am that you guys are here for me to cry to.

oh I could just use a cry right now!

There seriously is something wrong with your DS's teacher. I don't call anyone at that hour!!!! I would never in a million years call the parent of a student!!!!!!! Never. She needs a serious kick in the butt!!!! You must call that principal tomorrow!!!!

It is actually against the law to avoid it. Legally you must present a mix of secular and religious music. My school was really pushing for a totally secular concert. We did one a few years ago. The parents went nuts! They had petitions and everything. Now we do some of each. This went (not with my school but with other schools) to the supreme court and it is not unconstitutional to sing religious music. As long as you are not teaching religion. According to the MENC (national music educations group) if you do not do sacred music you are missing a huge part of music and doing the students a disservice. I thought this would be a good one to have done. That way if it comes up again at my school I can whip out my research paper.

That's fascinating. The K-3 schools in our district have no holiday concert so they avoid it that way. The 4-5 school has its winter concert in January so that avoids the problem. I think the choirs at the middle school have done one "neutral" Christmas song (can't remember, something seasonal but not religious).

 

[klineyqueen]

Thank you for verifying my reality ....wasn't that a bit odd?!!!

No it isn't a bit odd...it is unbearably odd!!!!

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

Thanks everyone ...it was actually fun doing the Pic with DW we just kept laughing ...Do you got a mint? lol

Caroline - I thought we were all walkin in like we were taking over , kind of a Pirate Parade so there be no need for a cape ..lol

Missy - I hope we dont have to storm the Flying Dutchman , I am just hoping after or during Pirate Night a CM will say "this is a year of a Million Dreams and were going to let you on the Dutchman on our 2nd trip to CC " ....yeah right , that one of my million dreams

Patsy - I know People who know people ....

Dody - Melissa says "Thank You for the Compliment "


and by the way , I am no longer in Drag ...

YEs - Congrats on the milestone...personal milestone...but a milestone!!

 

[klineyqueen]

I was trying to find a politically correct way to say that Caroline. I kept thinking nut job or bonkers.

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

DOCUMENT DANCE IN ORYGUN

Congrats to everyone getting docs tonight/last night.

 

[Bella2000]

Do you ever feel just like - that's it. I am feeling that way about work. My boss is wonderful. I think he is great and I went back to work all those years ago in this crazy world because of him. I never write about work I am too worried about something being googledI feel odd writing anything but I feel like I'll explode.

 

[pyramid2000]

Well, I am done browsing...didn't buy a thing!

I'll get the battery grip tomorrow!

 

[DrHug]
