To Cold For School?

I charged my battery on the camera, packed a lunch, got everything ready last night so that I could be at the middle school by 8:10 this morning to go what seemed to be a promising day with a ton of 7th graders on a field trip for the King Tut exhibit; so you can imagine my disappointment when the phone rang at 4:45 am- yes you read that right- 4:45 am to tell us there was no school do to extreme temperatures today! what? it is too cold to go to school? not sure that ever happened to me when I was a kid but hey! a day off is a day off right? back to bed even if i was a little sulky cause I really wanted to go on that field trip. See I was not selected the first time around but two days ago got the call that another parent backed out so would I consider chaperoning. I was ecstatic! Of course I would go, since I had never missed a field trip! Now- if they do reschedule I am sure they will ask the first chaperon to go instead of me- see my dissapointment? Oh well- You should have seen tthe boys when they finally woke up, Micah came sneaking down the steps saying "you did not wake me"........Like he was going to get in trouble, it was the funniest thing. I think we will have pizza tonight!
