my saturday

Daughter missed her first day of school. She'd been up the night before barfing her guts out. I felt sorry for her.(Mr. BoJangles stuck to her like glue as he does with anyone who is sick or depressed.)
She had to get up though that morning because a handful of kids  showed up for the senior class breakfast. She didn't participate. She watched from a far fearing that if she could see anyone eating she'd get sick. When all the kids left the house, looking all snazzy in their new clothes, and excited about starting their senior year, daughter was feeling a little pessimistic. The new school year wasn't starting the way she had planned.

I reassured her it could only get better from here. (Please let it gt better!)


Daughter was feeling much better today and had her first day back to school. It seemed to go well.

I'm looking forward to it being over with for good.  Really I am! (remind me I said that come this May when I'm crying on Graduation Day.)

I don't know why my words are being highlighted in yellow.

You know what they say Jane, if it isn't one thing it will be another like the illness of your daughter. We get through them all. Hope it smooths out for you soon.

I don't know why your words are highlighted in yellow either, but it reminds me of a book. Pissing in the Snow.
