A lot of Madness

You know those weeks. We all have them. The weeks where everything seems to not go quite as smoothly as you like. That's the week I'm having.

I'm putting on a brave smile and going fourth with everything I have to accomplish.

My kids are in school, so that is a huge plus. I had to chuckle at my oldest son last night. His Opa asked him in what ways his new school is different than his old one. A seemingly innocent enough question; but I had already told Opa some of the huge differences. Such as armed security at the school. An entirely different atmosphere. Huge discipline issues within the school and on the buses. And the buses! We have to walk a little ways to get to our bus stop, which is the bus stop for the entire area. We are talking like 30 kids right now, and that number will only go up as more people move in. The bus stop is madness. The bus is divided. Boys on one side, and girls on the other. The differences just go on and on. Well, back to my point. Opa asked my oldest...and do you know what that sweetheart of a boy said? "I get to have pizza every day for lunch if I want to, and it's much spicier than my old school. I love it!"

I only wish I had my children's resiliency right now.
