I knew it was going to rain so I don't know why I woke up annoyed
that it actually was. Maybe I was hoping the forecasters made a
mistake or that some great wind blew the clouds away that had already
made their way in yesterday.
when the blaring alarm made its debut I could hear the rain on the
windows and roof. I did not feel like jumping out of bed ready to
seize the day. More like wanting to pull the covers back over my head.
I was already not looking forward to the busstop let alone getting out
of bed at all!
being an adult we all have responsibilities and being a mom not only
are our children our responsibility but their responsibilties become
ours too. Therefore I had to crawl (not jump) out of bed and get my
daughter ready for school and out to the bus stop.
I had a hard time waking her up although eventually she did jump out
of bed ready to seize the day and I had a pang of jealousy that she
should have the energy right away to take on the day with such gusto
even with the raindrops smearing the window. Ahh to be seven again!
Pretending that the yellow school bus is a giant arc floating down the
rivers which were once roads picking up the kids and.......
somehow I forgot to buy another umbrella, which by the way umbrellas
annoy me and I am afraid of being poked in the eye by one but my
daughter isn't annoyed by them she is annoyed we are without umbrella.
We waited till the last minute when I thought the bus would be
actually In sight and we made a mad dash for the bus stop. And I was
right! Up the road the giant arc was in sight-just in time
