Anyone?

It has been an eerily quiet day here.  Like the world has been put on hold.

Dear Pollen Count
Can we please get some relief?
Itchy eyes and red nosed

Dear Self,

You need to get out of your funk. And get over this little sinus infection thing that’s still going on.

Dear world,

How is this OK? :waves hands:

Signed,
Sad

Dear Soccer club,
I asked a friend about you and she said the parents and coaches were nice, and really what more can you ask for. It sounds like the only negative is that they didn't like to rotate players and positions.  Which is kind of a negative if I am paying more money.  

Signed,
But really how many try outs do we need to go to, really? I'm still suspicious of that even though they have a logical explanation. My other friend who does club soccer said they had 1 practice. We will be having 5 practices.

Dear school,
I really hope you're being extra cautious with a lockdown 10 minutes before school gets out.
Signed,
Parents worst nightmare

Dear self,
It's understandable to feel overwhelmed and burned out. But procrastinating on what is overwhelming is just making it worse.
Signed,
I wish there was a magical pill

Dear supertrooper1,

I bet a lot of schools see lockdowns today. And tomorrow. And Friday.

Thankful This Is Our Last Week

I'm a mile from the school and I hear several helicopters.  It's driving me nuts not having DS home right now.  The neighbor lady said her kids were texting her from class and were fine.

Dear country,

Get it together. Everyone.

Signed, enough

Dear staff,

If you have sinus issues and a sore throat, DO NOT COME TO THE OFFICE.
Two of us have nice, long awaited vacations coming up.

Signed, I NEED A VACATION!

It took almost 4 hours to get DS home. Lockdowns are not new for DS or his school (sadly) but getting to the point of parent sign outs is new. I got to the school about 30 minutes before they released high school and middle school kids but the elementary and primary schools all on the same campus weren’t releases for another 2 hours. Then it was a nightmare getting through the ID check line and signing DS out. I somehow made it into the football stadium with DS and no one checked my ID on the way in like they were supposed to. I felt so bad for the hundreds of people still waiting in the crowd to find their kid. They were only letting in 6 people at a time.

I hate that we’ve come to this point. I’m thankful nothing happened at my son’s school today and glad we have a huge law enforcement presence in my little town if something were to happen.

supertrooper1, That is terrifying! I'm so sorry you both had to go through that but I'm so glad everyone is ok!

[mommyatty]

Dear Vacation,

Please hurry up and get here. You’re less than a month away.

Love,
I Need You

Dear girls,
How are you TEN?! I can't wrap my head around this.
Happy Birthday!
Love,
Momma

Happy birthday to your girls twinmomma! What ended up happening with Beau’s son’s party attendance?

[twinmomma]

sdlaura, She told beau that his son would be there. She never officially RSVP-ed to my evite and honestly, I'll believe it when I see it and he walks through the door of the party on Sunday.
