Because it's always funny when someone sucks on some helium and says "Hello"

one more day ....

.

Double duty -- As I drop off Hannah at 9:30 this morning, I also pick up Ashley. The last days of school in high school are frenetic to say the least. Don't go in until 2 hours late, come home 2 hours later, finals.

Ash has her test tomorrow. Economics and Goverment "in the bag" as she says, hours made up only one thing stands in her way of the tassell, Algebra II. UGH It just looooms there hanging over all our heads. I'm not sure if I mentioned she took the TAKS practice test for algebra two and made a 78 on it. I told her you pass, I won't have to see you until Graduation, she smiles, she thinks I'm kidding, in reality, I couldn't be more honest. If the navy papers are signed for deployment in June, and a graduation hangs on the wall, I don't care where she goes or what she does until that date. She says "I'm going to hold you to that" There's nothing to hold me to, it's the gods honest truth. I have told her the only thing I ask is that she call and let us know where she will be for the night, in reality, that's one of the things we ever asked of her. Dont lie, dont steal, dont do drugs and tell us where you are. Doesnt sound too hard, does it?

So, tomorrow at Noon she will take that freaking test and thirteen years of school will come down to those last few hours .....

Dazed, hang in there baby .....
