Another Day Out

Teachers had to report to school on Monday to prepared for our students on Tuesday. Some idiot ran into a light poll that morning causing us to be without power again. Luckily it came back on and we were able to have school as planned.
The students were excited to be back, especially the ones that were still without power at home. School was their escape from the darkness I guess.
All of the food at school spoiled, and we had not yet received a new shipment of food. So the students were served MRE's and bottled water for lunch. Luckily, we received our shipment Tuesday afternoon b/c MRE's were hectic!! The teachers walked around with scissors during lunch cutting open bags that the students couldn't. Imagine 9 teachers helping open 219 students lunches...all of which contained numerous packages to open!!
Things are just now getting back to normal with the students, and now we are out again!!! They cancelled school today b/c of hurricane force winds from Ike. I'm hoping this is the last time b/c I sure am dreading making these days up in the future!

I am sorry about all of that. Your blog sure is cute, though. You are motivating me to change mine.
