It is Finished

Well the tree is up and the decorations are all finished and we had no major nervous breakdowns involving the adults. The kids actually did really well even the three year old was pretty well behaved. We even managed to get up some extra decorations that were packed away. The saving grace was that the 3 year olds mother was at work and not here. If she had been here I can guarantee you he would have been a monster.

Today they finally called us from the school bus transportation department to inform us that they were going to change the bus the kids have been riding to and from school. But, the issue was that they were going to start this on their ride home. I insisted they were not to put the kids on a new bus this afternoon but that it could be done in the morning. I could just have imagined them sending the kids home on a different bus without them knowing anything about it until the last minute. They would have been in a panic. I am telling you we have nothing but idiots that work for our school corporation.

Get on the bus

My grandchildren have waited for 4 years and have begged to ride a school bus to school. This year this is actually happening and to tell you the truth it is a nightmare from you know where. They have a bus monitor called Mrs M and she is a terror. I have heard her screaming at the kids on the bus. Yesterday all three children got off the bus in tears. Their Mother was there with me to pick them up and so she went to ask the Monitor what the problem was because the kids said that Mrs. M had yelled at them all the way from school. So this woman proceeds to wag her finger in my daughter's face telling her that oh your children are perfect right? I have never seen such a sight in my life and I have seen lots of sights believe you me. My daughter finally just walked away from this woman and came back to the car because she was about ready to rip her finger off and shove it somewhere..... The woman followed her back to the car and proceeded to yell at her through the car window. So I being the good Mom and Nannie called the transportation department for the school and have filed a formal complaint against the woman. We are also asking if nothing is done with her that the kids get moved to another bus which will mean Jill and I have to walk quite a distance every afternoon to retrieve them. But I do not want them on the bus again with this woman. We kept them home from school today because we did not want this woman taking her anger out on them. I am really becoming a fan of home schooling more and more every day.
