Oh, Right...THERE'S The Anxiety!

I knew it had to be hiding in there somewhere!

I guess the reason I didn't feel it yesterday was because my brain knew that there was no way in hell the school district would actually do what they said they would...call me back with information about MY CHILD.

Yep, I waited here all flipping afternoon for a phone call. I even left two voicemails during that time. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.

I sent an email first thing this morning letting them know my disappointment and today's availability. Still...nothing. You'd think they would have gotten to work this morning, listened to my voicemails and thought, 'Shoot! That's really crappy of us to have not called her yesterday when we said we would. We should make that our top priority today.'

Alas, no, these people do not operate this way. They have zero integrity or compassion.

And so, here I wait, with a lump in my throat and the knowledge that I'm probably going to start crying at any moment. I've cleaned my house. I have drunk way too many cups of coffee. I'm listening to some really great music. And yet, all I care about right now is hearing what my son's future is; what my family's future is.

Please call, dammit. Please.


Good things come to those who wait. Good things come to those who wait. Good things come to those who wait. Good things come to those who wait....

I know exactly how you feel. like you're jumping out of your skin. Can you forward your phone to your cell phone & go for a walk to get some fresh air?
