One crazy week!

Some weeks are easy, some are hard, others are just down right crazy! I will give you a peek at our week this week and let you decide. (Please note that I am writing this on the train home on Friday, so there is still a significant portion of the week that will still happen.)

Sunday evening Steph got a call from the mother of one of Tasha's school friends. Apparently there was a problem at the school so they were closing the school on Monday. We decided to investigate a little and pulled up the school website, isn't it funny that an elementary school has a website, and found out that not only would the school be closed on Monday, but for the whole week. Well, a free week for vacation isn't so bad so we settled in for some fun and Steph started planning some activities for the week.

We checked the school website again Monday night after the school board meeting and they said that the school was being closed for the rest of the year due to a mold problem in the school. They said none of it got into the air so there isn't a health problem, but they need to fix it before they let the kids back in. Remember, this is the temporary school that they set up while the regular school is being renovated. They also said that the kids would be relocated to another school for the rest of the school year. Tasha's third school this year! At least she gets to stay with her teacher and classmates.

So on Tuesday a building in Harlem partially collapsed right be the train tracks around 2:00 PM. That meant that there would be no trains from NYC to CT until it was safe. So, long story short, my train finally got moving around 7:30 and I got home around 8:30.

Later in the week Steph did Joy School while juggling three kids in the morning on Thursday and had a playdate in the afternoon.

If that isn't crazy enough for you our stake asked that we visit all the members in our ward this month, lots of extra work for the EQ president, and we are putting on a no-holds-barred pinewood derby on Saturday and I got to go out with the missionaries on Thursday night.

Well, I'm out of breath just from thinking about it all. Hope you guys are having more fun than you can handle as well.
