Today was rather a dramatic day. James has been away on a business trip since Monday and today (Wednesday) it happened to be a half day at school for the girls. I was not overly enthusiastic about this since it meant more hours in which I would be trying to entertain the kidlets in my sleep deprived state.
I got Emily on the bus after giving all the kids a hearty breakfast of porridge. Quite an exceptional feat I thought considering how tired I was. I had gotten an email the night before from Emily’s teacher reminding me of a field trip she was supposed to take that day which I had failed to acknowledge with her fee. I found the note about it in a stack of the kids art work which explained that a science museum was bringing the museum to the school and it would cost $8 for my child to participate in the experiments.
