Today was rather dull, but still fun. We played the majority of the day which to me is the best way to spend a day anyways. Running around pretending to be horses is pretty fun if you haven’t tried it, you should.
My morning routes went pretty good. I think I have to start getting up earlier though as I almost left late and felt rushed as I left the driveway even though I was exactly to the minute of on time. I usually would sit a minute in the bus before I left, walking a dog though takes a few more minutes off my morning.
My morning routes were great though and so were my afternoon ones really. The student from the previous post, I had to take him back of course. I called Stan though and had him meet me at the corner, so we went to Walmart with the bus from the school after we took him back. It isn’t out of the way.
Stan left the Deuce in the house. He must have jumped on the door handle because he wasn’t to be found in the hous when we got home. It would be a crazy note to have to call the shelter 2 days after getting him to report him missing….oh my heart was racing.
He comes pretty good though when you whistle, which I did just outside the door and running he came all happy. Heart attack over. I guess we have to close both doors when we leave.
I am off to bed. Good Night.

I am taking heat, sort of today. It isn’t from my boss or anything like that, so no worries on that part. I have a student though. This is a kindergarten student. I know the mom works 1/2 hour past when I drop off the student, so is sometimes not there. I have gotten permission as a note to drop this student off at the grandparents house, which I have done as one note for all year. So I am basically dropping this student off at one of two places without any further action by the mom, whichever place has an adult present, I let the child off.
Well, there wasn’t an adult at either place today.
The cousins to this student also ride my bus. The mother’s sister’s kids whom, I know they are a very close family and the students are the same age. They frequently get on the bus all together, well most of the time.
I however do not have any sort of note or permission in writing to let this student off at this place, so I didn’t. I also don’t think it is good for a student to not know where they are getting off, it seems not healthy to me for some reason.
The sister/cousins wanted the student off. I took him to school though because I am responsible should anything happen. I know…I don’t believe anything would, but that slight responsibility makes me not do it.
The mother calls me within a minute of me passing the cousins with her son on board and tells me I am being unreasonable and that she can’t help it she has to work, on and on…you know. I felt bad, but I wasn’t being mean. I told her I couldn’t talk while I was driving and told her to call back in 10 minutes, she didn’t.
What do you think?? Should I have left this student off??
