I'd really appreciate it if one thing could go my way sometime in the near future.
So remember all the faxes and phone calls and crap I did to get Zach's GT records to the new school system?
Well...
The information paper was very specific about "don't call us, we'll call you" to find out if your child was eligible for testing. So I waited. And then honestly kinda forgot because Greg signed up the boys for golf lessons this week and then there is that small matter of sewing a gabillion items for Stitches (2 weeks away, ack!) and oh yeah, for some reason the kids want to eat yet another meal (2 a day should be enough I swear). Oh and the poison ivy. All the itching made me scatterbrained (more so than usual).
Then Tuesday I received a letter in the mail. Zach was eligible for testing! Yay! That happened Tuesday morning at 9am. (Our mail arrives around 4pm). Grrr...
I've left three messages now with two different people and no one has returned my calls. I am so annoyed, why the hell would they send a letter when there was a matter of like 2 days before the test? It's not like they didn't have my phone number, I left it with everyone and it was on the test permission slip form I dropped off last week. I think I may need to deal with this at the school level (this whole testing thing is done at the county level). Again I hate being pushy but I know Zach needs to be in this class or 5th grade will be a disaster for him. And I'd really rather he start in that class next Tuesday instead of being switched weeks later when they realize, hey yeah this kid does need to be in the challenge class.
Other crap that hasn't gone my way: Kelly's kindergarten schedule and teacher have been switched (long story, I'm running out of time before the boys' two hours of golf because really I have two hours to spare...) and I don't have a babysitter for tonight's kindergarten open house and I'd really prefer it just be Kelly and I (and Greg). Oh and I have a $9 coupon to spend at Staples (office store) and I can't find one nearby to save my life. I even broke down and used Greg's GPS unit yesterday and it seems to have a block on Staples because it told me the nearest one was 56.2 miles away.
*whine, bitch, moan*
Right, off to golf camp...
