Fun Facts

1.  We had powerful thunderstorms last night.
2.  Said thunderstorms knocked our power out at 4:30am.
3.  We slept blissfully through the power outage.
4.  We woke up with Henry standing over our bed saying, "It's 6:45"
5.  My alarm was set for 6:00am - thank goodness for Henry's cell phone alarm.
6.  Being the first day of school, it was not good to wake up late.
7.  I drove Henry to his bus stop (first time ever riding a bus) to go to his first day of Middle School.
8.  I got Hayden to his new school fairly early, but could not find a parking spot.  We had to walk from three blocks away.
9.  We could not get to his locker easily.  We were being blocked by all the kids "decorating" their lockers.  I have never seen such an assortment of wall paper, glitter, fluffy stuff and chandeliers -yes, chandeliers.  No wonder everyone came early.  At our old school, locker decorating was not allowed.
10.  I did the "mom" thing and called Henry to make sure he got to school ok.  He was fine, but he forgot to memorize his bus number.
11.  I am currently waiting for Durham Bus Services to call me back with Henry's bus number or I may be making a trek across town around 3:30 to pick him up.
12.  My house is a disaster.
13.  I am ignoring it.
14.  I have a pit in my stomach.
15.  First day of school has never been my best.
16.  I am getting too old for this sort of thing.
