No Field Day

Yesterday I was off work to participate in Lucas Field Day. This has been a very big deal to him all year. He started asking me if I would work Field Day on the first day of school. I told him no problem. I took the day off and was ready to work all day. At the very last minute Thursday they cancelled Field Day for Friday and moved it to Monday. Total bummer because I can't work it on Monday. It is one of the few days out of the year that I have to work. No exception, drag your sick kid or self or dog to work but be there. I hate it and Lucas hates it even more. I am just hoping that next year will go smoother and they will have it on the day scheduled. Now the crisis per the phone calls Friday afternoon is that they don't have enough volunteers to work on Monday. Geez. It is a bit upsetting because it did not start raining until after 5 on Friday evening. I know it is a huge delima for them to go for it or not when less than perfect weather is set but geez did they miss this one.

I know as soon as the calendar comes out next year Lucas is going to want me to take off the entire week so I can be sure to work field day.

Oh well better luck next year. Wonder if they will let me wear my shirt from this year next year???
