I made it

Last night was S's over night field trip. J dropped us off at school at 5:15 PM and helped up unload and load the bus. We unloaded and walked into the zoo with our stuff to the picnic area for pizza. Then we did some walking around, it was starting to get dark, which was weird. Then we picked up our stuff and walked to the tents near the lions. It was way to much for me, I rode on the cart. I was having a terrible time breathing. They showed us more animals up close, then bed, well more like floor. I took J's mat but even with it, it was very uncomfortable. I'm not sure I slept. The girls woke up at 5:30, after everyone was dressed and we cleaned up camp. We walked back to the exit area to drop off our stuff before breakfast. We were given a tour of some other animals, took the safari ride (which in my opinion is not very long, which really seemed short when your feet hurt), we broke up into groups and my group wanted to play in the water, the kids played in both water areas and we saw the monkeys, before lunch, then thank goodness it was 1 PM, after we all ate, and time to pick up our things and head to the bus and back to Sunrise. It was pretty hot walking around, but not nearly as hot as the bus was on our trip back, it was bad. After we unloaded, I needed/wanted to check on my student and the things we use everyday. I'm glad I did because her voice box was not plugged in, her computer mouse was left in the computer lab )she sues one that has only 1 clicker part), she was only taken the bathroom once all day (she's toilet training), and her Mother's Day gifts we worked on in her classroom did not make it in to her backpack. Geez good thing the bus showed up back at school in time for to help her. I'm so tired and my feet hurt so much. I think I'll take a shower and go to bed very early.
