Hello Ya'll

Well, here goes...

OK I admit, I drive my twin boys to school in the morning,  (the bus comes at 6:15 am and we only live 3 miles from school)! OK, they are seniors in high school. That doesn't really matter. Right?

Yesterday at 6:45 am I told the twins:  I'm starting the car to warm it up, be ready in 5 minutes. (OK, it was a cold morning, 42 degrees, I knew they would be wearing shorts because the temperature was going up to the mid 60's and I didn't want them to freeze on the way to school) 

I started the car and told them: "Let's go" ! Well, my procrastinator son, Alex told me that he needs 2 documents to prove his address to be on the baseball team. He tried out and made the team.  Power bill, bank statement, etc... Me: WHAT? SWEET JESUS! This is going to make you late to school! (If they are one minute late they have to sit in the library their first block unless their parent signs them in). Me: Do you see what I am wearing? I am in my pajamas and my hair is OUT OF CONTROL in the morning! I can't sign you in! But, then, Nick announces, "mom, you have to go in anyway to get my phone back".  ??? What??? Nick: "it was taken away yesterday when I was texting you a message and I told my teacher you were extremely ill and I should have been suspended for 3 days but she only took it away because she felt bad that you were so sick". If you don't back me up I will be suspended and that could affect my graduation. I did not go in and his teacher did call me and told me Nick was attemping to send me a text that he didn't get to hit send. Geez.

So back to Alex, I dug thru my "bag o bills" and handed him our power bill and a bank statement. On the way to school Alex opened the power bill first and said: "mom, it says we are 2 months behind and our power will be cut off on Feburary 22nd)! I can't turn this in! Me: OK son, then just turn in the bank statement. Alex: "mom, this says you had an overdraft on Feburary 2nd, and your account was charged $38.00"! I can't turn this in. Me: OK, tell the coach you will bring the documents tomorrow. To be cont...  It gets better, believe it or not.  To be cont.......
