First Katelyn hurt her elbow in PE (whacked it on a metal ring in the pool while swimming) on Tuesday. Kathie had to take her to the doctor and for xrays (luckily nothing broken), so I had to leave work and get Haley to her drum lesson. So now she can’t move it well enoguh to play her saxophone. On Tuesday night she\u00a0spent 20 minutes trying to convince me that attending band rehearsal in the morning (the second-to-last rehearsal of the year) would be completley pointless. I tried to explain to her that listening, watching the music, and fingering even without an instrument were all different ways to rehearse music. She was absolutely convinced it isn’t, and she would be bored out of her mind. She is sure I’m cruel and ridiculous for waking her up 75 minutes earlier to attend class.\u00a0Had a nasty altercation yesterday morning getting her out of bed. Not a great way to start a day.<\/p>\n
Then Haley lost her Social Studies book. Couldn’t do homework, so borrowed a book from the teacher the next day to finish it and turn it in a day late. Then the teacher insisted on taking back the borrowed book, so she couldn’t do her homework again last night. We’ve torn apart our houses and can’t find it. Guess she’ll have to pay for it, but meanwhile doesn’t he realize she can’t do her homework without a book? Oh, and the school and public libraries don’t have a copy. Sigh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
