dyk the news in my office is not good
dyk my friend/boss' tumor is inoperable.
dyk they are doing a biopsy (which is major brain surgery, given the location of the tumor) to determine if it will respond to other treatment, such as radiation or chemo
dyk the other attorneys in the office found out yesterday and the staff today (though everone knew something serious was up)
dyk mood is grim.

dyk wow this has been a crazy day

dyk the ARD/IEP meeting went well

dyk the group (there were 10 people involved) was shocked at the backpacks and a bit.... .skeptical... until I said, "Well, does this campus not need them? Should I take them over to X or Y campus?"

dyk and then the asst principal was quick to snatch up the bag (two bulging bags lol 18 backpacks) and say, "Oh no, I know exactly where these should go" and she disappeared to her office I presume.

dyk and a friend of mine really waqs inspiured and she went to Children's Place and got the other backpacks and delivered them to the school -- her son is in Abi's class

dyk I grocery shopped and with my coupon savings paid for my flu shot

dyk and someone posted on my facebook (someone I only like "ok") and said how I could have gotten it for free yesterday

dyk gee, very helpful today now isn't it? Telling me that was annoying. She's not the most tactful.

dyk and in my flusteredness over this check, I locked myself out of the house

dyk luckily, the kids play with the back windows hollering out of them and such and I was in luck -- one didn't latch when they closed it so I opened it

dyk nearly killed myself getting in -- it's a higher half window

dyk no witnesses

dyk aw dang, the bank said it was a fraudulant check

dyk boo lol

dyk we kinda wondered and the bank said they would verify and let us know

dyk our other thought was it was a life insurance policy portion from Sean's grandmother -- she is the type that would give to the grandkids
