Today was a good day! I picked up my D from school and we went straight to the library. That is usually what's on our list of things to do for after school. It's either that, or go to the playground, bookstore, ice cream. I have half the week with my D and I want to make sure I build lasting memories with her which can be hard with work, school, studying, and my boo.

The reason I wanted to go to the library was because I wanted to print out the school of choice form that is due soon. Since D's dad lives in the next city over, we gravitated toward a school in the middle so it would be convenient for everyone...which sucks. But, anyway, while we were at the library one of D's classmates was there, so she got to play with him and was busy while I completed the application. Turns out the application was electronic which was both great and scary at the same time.

The reason filling out the application was scary was because I was hoping to put D in a closer school to my house. D's dad has other people, such as, his mom and grandmother that drive and pick her up from school. When she is at my house, I either have to do the driving, or my parents do. I don't mind driving for school at all, it's just my parents have one car. So in order for them to pick up D, they would first have to drive my dad to work, which is 13 miles one way, and then drive back home because its in the middle of the pre-k D goes to and then drive the 13 miles to her school there and back, and then pick up my dad from work!!! It's flipping insane!!!*
When I was typing in the school we chose I was really lingering at the thought of just writing in another school that is just a little bit closer to me but is still out of the school boundary... I don't know what to do. No matter where D goes, she will not be eligible to take the school bus, which sucks. Blah! I'm still trying to rationalize whether or not I should try to find a way to change the school on the form and just tell D's dad that the school was full. But I don't want to lie, and he isn't stupid either.

Another thing that we did at the library was buy 25 cent magazines and children books! What is better than buying a magazine for a quarter? It's an old magazine, but that is something that I don't mind because I stopped buying magazines when I noticed it just made the bill go higher, and magazines are almost more expensive than most of the food I buy.

I am worried a little about tomorrow, or I guess later today. I start work at 2 and haven't been able to find the right scrub color. After the library, me and D went to Walmart for the scrubs and found indigo which looked like it could pass for navy, because the human resources office really emphasized navy, when telling me what color to buy the scrubs in. I buy the scrubs and call this girl that I know who has worked at the medical center for a while, and she tells me that it has to be navy! Crap! So after I drive D to school tomorrow, I am going to have to return the scrubs to Walmart and find another place that has navy scrubs. I really thought Walmart would have them.. oh well.
