What inconsiderate lovely people!

Today was award day and graduation at the boys school. It
is hard to manage doing much of anything at this school, for reasons I won't go into. Jo is was in 5th grade and normally they get T-shirts made and wear those to graduate in but they didn't even get those this year. They did at the last moment decide to let them make tie-dyed T-shirts and then had them all sign each others. We were very afraid at first that they wouldn't even get to "march" but they did. I also had a Kindergartner graduating, so it was a busy exciting day for us. It all went pretty well, with both receptions before the assembly we just did the back and forth thing and the kids all had a really good day. I on the other hand ended up very upset and aggravated. It was one of those things where you just have to stop and think "How inconsiderate can people be?" Granted it was very hot in the gym (it is the one part of the school that isn't air conditioned) and we had all been there for awhile but geeze people!! They had gone through all of the awards and then did the graduations. Kindergarten first and then they started the 5th graders. Half of the parents in the place were up, moving around and getting their kids or talking. They were standing in the middle of the aisles where the kids needed to walk, blocking every one's view and keeping all of us that had graduates from seeing, filming or enjoying anything. Again I say "How inconsiderate can people be?" It was truly heartbreaking and unfortunate. If any of those people were my child, I would have taken them directly to the bathroom and busted their

hind ends!

Here are a few pictures for your enjoyment.

It was all and all a good day. It just left a bad aftertaste.
