6:38am. It's rained all night. It's going to rain all morning. They say it will clear up in the afternoon. The crawlspace under the house is flooded and the pump is running. The heater isn't pouring out heat -- possibly because the hot air is gurgling through water but maybe because it's not working right. I'm not sure which. I text messaged Mr Wonderful in Chicago with no answer.
ARGH!!!!!
My frustration is extreme. Another day with no recess. Another day with wet soggy stuff. Is it April or not? Sometimes in April, we're already hitting 80 degrees. They joked on the news last night that instead of hunting for Easter eggs, the kids will be bobbing for them. I didn't find it funny. Hit too close to home.
And what a day I've got. We've got an Early Out Day at school. The kids leave at 1pm. So, The Princess will go to the Y for afterschool care today. The Boy Wonder will do his usual thing with his old Preschool. And, I get to be in staff meetings all afternoon. Followed closely by a Site Council Meeting that I will have to leave early from to grab The Princess and The Boy Wonder and drag them off to The Princess' singing lesson. If I don't forget about it AGAIN! Argh! And, then we have to manage some dinner (can you say Lunchables?) and come home, do homework, and get ready for another day of fun tomorrow.
Wheeee.
It's never going to end, is it? I don't know how much more I can take and I don't even have a flooded crawlspace. *hugs*

The rain is getting me down, too. And it's going to continue for 2 more weeks (last I looked). Hang in there.
