I was assessing children on coin identification for report cards. Most assesments have to be one on one and it drags on forever. I called K up....
Me-What's this coin.
Her-penny
Me-What's this one?
H-dime
Me-this one?
Her-nickel
MeAnd how about this one?
Her-Torture
Me-Yes this is torture, but we pronounce it quarter.
Later on that day, during a rainy recess time, we were watching a well known animated classic in which a fox and a dog who were once friends get into a fight. All of the children are horror struck. Some have their hands to their mouths, others have covered their eyes. Suddenly above the noise of the fighting animals H yells out 'Jeeezzus Christ!"
It's really hard to correct a child for inappropriate comments when you are laughing so hard.
Just saying....

Good Things Come to Those Who Wait
It is now almost 8:00 p.m. and the thing I have waited for all day has finally happened. The plumber is here. A mere 11 hours after I called. I guess everyone's plumbing problem is an emergency though.
I just really wanted
a shower
and a nap
to get the groceries for the week bought.
and to run to the carpet store.
In related news...
The plumber's assistant just knocked on the door, asked to be shown to the water heater, looked me straight in the eye and said,
"We crawled all the way up under there and there's water shooting everywhere!"
Uh, yeah.
That's what I told your boss when I called ...
11 hours ago.
Sigh.
