I have to say that I’m surprised with how well Bella did when Karen’s sister was here this past weekend. I was concerned how she was going to react to the kids because she hasn’t been around them in a while but she was pretty good, and her usual cute self. She attempted to sleep with one of them, he wanted to be left alone so he asked that she be taken off his bed. And when it came to the other, he’s a dog lover by nature so while Bella and Princess kind of took over his bed, he put himself on the floor. I thought that was sweet, but the dogs don’t need to be there either – so I moved them both. Princess wasn’t too happy but it isn’t her bed to make that choice.
Her sister left this morning, but supposedly she’s coming back sometime next week. Her kids start school in a few hours, and next week they already have a day off for the holiday. Then the following week they have a three-day weekend with another holiday. Why do they even bother to start school if they’re going to close down for a few days two weeks in a row?
I probably never noticed that kind of schedule when I was in high school, but I’ll tell ya – thinking back on it now – it was probably one of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard of.
