So Which Is It?

So, on school days, do they wake up at 6:40 and say, "I don't have to get up for a half hour, so I'm going back to sleep" and then be so dead to the world at 7 that I can't pry them out of bed and then on no-school days wake up at 6:40 and bound out of bed with enthusiasm?

Or, is there an internal alarm that whispers -- no school today, get up and jump around at 6:40 on no-school days?

And why is it that our school district never seems to have school?

We're going to have some fun today -- a few of us are taking yet another road trip to put up posters. I think it is going to be fun. We'll sing a little, tell stories, watch a DVD maybe (well, they will watch, I will listen) and stop somewhere unique, possibly, for lunch.

Bart will take Tony to therapy and keep him a while with him. The rest have school today.

ANd I'll squeeze in any attempts at work I can manage...

I totally agree with you about school. The EC program here is always off on Wednesdays and the school seems to consistently have Fridays off. We have just moved which was an exhausting experience and now they have 10 days off for spring break. Amid the tantrums and rages that go with transitioning, I get to somehow unpack! Teaching is definitely the job to have.
