**********************
For those who don’t know me, I’m Jana. I blog at Jana Says and Steph and I go way, WAY back to our years at the University of Delaware. You might have seen me in some of her Throwback Thursday pictures. We had fun.
Unfortunately, my life isn’t as exciting now as it was back then. In fact, a good portion of my week is devoted to time in my car, driving my daughter to and from places. Including school because she’s afraid of the bus. So each day, I
In the morning
This line is incredibly long and slow moving. Kids need to toughen up and wait for the bus like we had to do.
I really shouldn't criticize the other kids. My kid is just as bad.
I'm glad I remembered to warm up the car this morning. It's freaking cold out.
Is she wearing a warm enough coat? I hope they don't have outdoor recess.
Hey, why isn't that kid wearing a coat at all? Hoodies are not sufficient!!! His mother should know better.
I hate when people don't brush snow off their car. It's not that hard.
WHY ARE THESE PEOPLE TAKING SO LONG?
Oh, finally. We're moving towards the front door.
Where are all the teachers? Aren't they supposed to be supervising?
I guess I can't blame them. It's way too cold out. They can see the kids from the front door.
At least it's not raining/snowing.
I should check the weather to see if it's supposed to rain/snow today.
Oh, look at that. It's supposed to rain/snow.
I hate winter. I need to move somewhere warm.
In the afternoon
I think it's colder out now than it was this morning. I blame the snow.
I'm going to blame the snow for everything bad that happens during the months of December-March because it's really the worst thing ever.
That puddle is way bigger than it was this morning. I hope whichever teacher is walking around with the sign out clipboard doesn't step in it.
I'm glad this parking lot doesn't have huge potholes like the gym parking lot. My wheels would probably fall off. That would suck.
I should learn how to change a tire. But not until the weather is warmer. It's too cold for that shit.
Why do I have 16 pairs of gloves and no scarves? If I could knit, I'd have 86 scarves. I should try knitting again.
Who am I kidding? Knitting is not a skill I will ever possess. I should surrender that fantasy.
What does one do with skeins of yarn? Is that what it's even called? I feel like it needs to be called "big knotted balls of yarn that serve no purpose".
I'm horrible at naming things.
That teacher has a pom pom on top of his hat! I bet someone knitted that for him.
I really need to stop thinking about knitting.
I should probably lower my music before that teacher gets to my car.
Why does Buckcherry's "Crazy Bitch" always play while I'm waiting for the child?
Let's go ahead and skip it today. I don't need these teachers thinking I'm a terrible and inappropriate parent.
WOOHOO! We're moving again!
Why is that teacher waving violently at my car? I'm aware that I have to move up.
Maybe she's doing it to keep warm. If that's the case, I can't fault her.
Okay, she needs to calm down now. My child is buckling her seat belt. Safety first.
OMG, I hate how people drive in the snow/rain.
I hate winter.
I need to move somewhere warm.
