OH WHAT A DAY!!

I woke up this morning with several things worrying me but after several phone calls I feel better and on track to get things done and be ready to head to China on the 2nd. All the little details can really get overwhelming, but thankfully I have support from my family and friends.
EM has his speech class on Tuesday afternoons. The bus picks him up at 12:50 and he is there from 1till 3:15PM...I had thought about how nice it was going to be to have a quiet afternoon with just SJ, then I spent most of the morning on the phone getting things arranged for the trip. After lunch SJ and EM were playing together when the phone rang...it was EM's teacher, "How is EM...Fine...did he get on the bus........Oh no I forgot about his class...I will bring him right over." Thankfully the school is only 2 miles from us. When I got there his teacher suggested that SJ could stay as well if I could pick them up...I jumped at the chance. 2 hours just for me!!! So I ran over to the YMCA to walk on the treadmill then headed home to get dinner together. Then it was off to pick them up and go get MR from school. When we got home I noticed the back door was open and the phone had a message on it. I listened to find out it was the security system, just then our neighbors were at the door. My father in law had gotten a call from the security system and called them...well next time I look out and 2 police cruisers are at the door. I walk out with my hands up...I live here what do you need me to do to make sure all is OK. They just needed my ID and that was the end of that. It was really windy and the back door wasn't locked. Shut but not locked...OOPS! Next time I am running like a cray woman I will make sure all the doors are locked, not just shut!
So now we are all home and my friend is about to drop off 2 of her kids. No big deal that way they don't have to ride way north to watch their sister swim in a swim meet. Thankfully all the kids play well together and they are no problem!
Dinner and off to MR's dance class.
Guess I better get everyone to bed so I can collapse for the night.
Hope tomorrow is a bit calmer...Oh yeah I have a Chemo recertification class from noon till 4...how is MR getting home from school. Got that one covered...Note to self, don't forget to send a note so she can ride the bus home!
One day closer to JM...4 kids...are we nuts...probably but ready to give it a try for oh 18 years or so...or I guess for the rest of my life.
Life is good!
