ho-hum, diddly um...

sooooo, mike & i have an ob appt in ottumwa at 3:15. i know, if the appointment's at 3:15 why am i at a computer (in memphis) at 2:45? we have a small situation in the county that's got us on mandatory lock down. translated=you ain't going anywhere, baby! (watch the local news...i'm sure it will be on there).
i called the office when the lock down went into effect & asked if this was 'just a drill.' uh....no. stay in your room with the door locked. you mean in my room that doesn't have a door lock? awesome. i feel safe here...i could always crawl in the big brown 8'x10' cabinet & hope no one thinks to look there for a big 'ole pregnant lady! sounds like i'm complaining but i'm not--i love that our school is putting the students' & staffs' safety first...this is just me finding humor in the situation!
okay...they need me & my brawn to get our students safely to the buses. i should leave for my appt. but kids first, right?

at least i didn't have to keep any kids in the corner for 45 minutes like the classroom teachers. that would have been super fun!
