Yesterday we took the fourth graders to Raleigh on a field trip. We went to the capital building, the legislative building, the museum of Natural Science and the Museum of History. It was great but too much for one day. I could have spent a whole day just in the museum of history. There was so much we didnt get to see. All of the kids talked about wanting to go back, I hope it is something that parents might consider doing as a family. When we returned I had to stay at school until 7:00 because we had our science fair and I am one of the committee members who helped get it together. I can tell you that I was totally exhausted by the end of the day. My feet were killing me, Im still tired today as matter of fact. Another early night sounds good.
I came home from Indiana on Sunday. It was a miserable day for traveling. Traffic was heavy and it rained all the way. In some places it was even a rain/snow mix. When I reached NC it had let up a bit, at least long enough for me to deliver a meatloaf to the trucker man and his hairy one. I was told later that they enjoyed it.
It was good to be back in my own place with my own things. I love my family but when I go up there now I cant really do what I want when I want because Im visiting. I have to watch what they are watching on tv, eat what they are eating, sleep on a couch which means I have to go to bed when they do, whether its later than I want or earlier than I want. Then with all the parental health issues...it was just a stressful week. Thank God they are all doing better now.
Well I guess that is it for tonight. Im off to dream of other things.
