Someone should've thought've this beforehand... UPDATED

Someone please explain to me how you (being they) have the whole summer to get your ducks in a row yet we (meaning me) get a phone call at 6 am telling us the first day of school will be delayed 2 hours because the buses are having issues. (this after I just found out they moved the school time to start at 9 am and end at 4 pm.)

All summer to fix the buses yet the morning of the first day of school. "Oopsies, bus isn't running so let's just start school later! See ya!"

Really what kind of message does that send our kids? Or more importantly what does that do to the hundreds of parents (me) who have planned this day ohsocarefully for three months?

My kids don't even ride the bus.

I guess other then the stress of trying to get ahold of the Realtor to reschedule the writing of the offer (which must be written today!) I've been spoiled by the Oldest's school. See, they are having a two hour delay in September. They've already let me know...last week. Plus, because they know what kind of hardship it can be for some parents they are offering free before school care for everyone.

That's what I call cool.



********Ok, so yet another year has gone by where the buses have been vandalized damaged. You would think they would put a guard or some kind of security out no? That's why school is late. But on the other hand it worked out better to meet the realtor because he wanted to touch base with the selling realtor before meeting with us.

On another note, this house thing is driving me up the wall. I don't remember stressing over the purchase of this house or the sale of Hubs house to move out here. I remember relief and happiness. lol Of course, his house sold literally the minute it went on the market. It sold the night before it was to be listed to the first person who saw it. I hope that happens again. lol

Anyway, that's where we are at. It also looks like Hubs and I might be able to go out for some brunch or something before the meeting. *sigh*
