Today was the first day in a long time that I didn't want to go to work this morning. In fact I forgot to set the alarm this morning and didn't wake up until 7:00. Last night was the Christmas concert for the preschool. The kids did really well. Except for three students, everyone in the morning class was there. The best concert moment would have been when the teacher was asking and reminding the students what the shepherds used their staff for. They could use it to help sheep get out of ditches; they used it to herd the sheep and they used it to chase off wolves. The teacher said, yes if a wolf came, the shepherd would bonk the wolf on the nose with his staff and the wolf would be sad and run away. Well one of the girls said "He could also hit him on the head and knock his brains out." This from a 4 year old!!!!!
So this morning I just had to go to the school to help clean up from the evening and prepare for January. Patrick came with me so he could use the car. He dropped me off and headed to Market Mall to do more shopping. Well that's when the communication broke down. Even after I asked Patrick to watch how I got to the school - he still got lost - and lost - and lost. So what should have been a 5 minute car ride to pick me up, turned into a 45 minute ride; and three phone calls. That wasn't even the frustrating part. The frustrating part was when Patrick tried to convince me that the problem was miscommunication on my part. Needless to say, we got that straightened out in a hurry.
So the kitchen is clean and straighten out, all the gifts are wrapped (except the ones I haven't purchased yet) and the laundry is 1/2 done. After I pick up Ashley from the airport, I'll be working on the rest of the Christmas cards tonight.
Night
