Ugh, what a day I'm going to have today.
Don't have long, have to get ds up early because he's performing at the state capitol this morning (postponed from yesterday am) AND he has a choir recital TONIGHT at 6.
So, here's my yesterday story....I get to school to pick ds up and the mom of a classmate (who also works as a teacher's aide at the school) tells me that our children were cleaning the bathroom today...upon further investigation I find out that ds and his friend reported a mess from an overflowing urinal in the boys room and were asked to get some paper towels and clean it up, which they did, and then promptly given a tootsie roll for "helping". Anyone else see an issue here? Standard precautions? No gloves? Kids cleaning urinals? Exposure to fluid borne illness? After more investigation, I find out that it was the freaking principal who asked them to do it. And then she gave them a finger food? D'ya think she even asked them if they washed their hands, not that it would have been enough...WTF???? I thought I was mad until I told dh who just about exploded all over me. He wants to take ds out of school he's so amazed at the lapse in judgment.
So after the performance this morning I have to discuss with the principal just exactly what she was thinking when she sent my son into the bathroom to clean up that kind of mess.

And now it looks like it is going to POOR for his birthday party on Sunday. I guess I could have all the kids over here to the house, but man, that would suck-there's just no time to clean in between now and then. I can't really postpone it at this time of year. I don't know what to do

Nik-sorry about the $$. That really sucks.
Jen-ooooohhhhh brrrrrrr. I so do not miss that bone chilling cold. And I LIVE for pedicures. I have to admit, I'm a huge pedi girl, flowers on my toes are my fave thing in the world I think Who knew I was such a girl.

Ok, gotta go. Peace everyone.
