RN, or rather a few minutes ago, I got one of those phone calls that goes out to all parents at the school that our buses (my kidlets don't ride buses) were delayed and parents could expect their children home half an hour late. It then went on to list that all four buses still weren't there (1st grade field trip to the zoo today) at the time of the phone call. Funny, not haha, thing is by the time they called, it was already 45 minutes after school got out!

Cinngrl - I've been thinking about your nephew, along with all the people affected by the earthquake(s). I just can't imagine the loss, fear and stress all are going through. From your post, it sounds like he is still OK and being taken good care of. I'm sure you and your family will be happy to have him "home". Are they staying because of no flights out? Or because they are planning to tough it out in order to finish their trip? I know that didn't make much sense. But if it were up to me, I'd want to be on the first flight available OUT! Will keep all in my thoughts and prayers. And please keep us posted.

RN...thanks Oldtex! Yes, hes okay, his whole group is okay. Last week they were visited by the head of our University, the Canadian Consolate and Canadian Embassy from China and were given 3 choices....come home, stay put or move to a beach resort town with another university to continue their studies...they decided to stay put cuz in the short time they were there they made lots of friends..and they felt like they were helping in some small way..(they all donated blood and took a collection amongst themselves and bought 28 blankets to give away to homeless) but yesterday they were told they couldn't stay, too unsafe, expecting more earthquakes. And since they still didn't want to come home, they are now on their way to Canton Hes definately gaining a ton of life experience over there! And thank goodness for MSN & email

RN, hugs to Cinnamongirl and her nephew. Let's keep him safe! RN i don't know how many of you heard of the poor lady near here (Chester, CA) that had her daughter and daughter's boyfriend murdered last weekend and then her son was driving home the night of the murder and had a car accident and died 2 days later. this poor lady lost both her children. the daughter on mother's day and the son basically the same day. he never regained consciousness and was pronounced dead 2 days later. it breaks my heart. this single mom lost everything. they have arrested the girl's former boyfriend. i wish they could also add a manslaughter charge because the brother would not have been rushing to his mom's side had his sister not been murdered. gosh. way too much for one person to handle. i just keep thinking it must be the most horrible thing in the world for her. and then i also feel for the family of the boy who killed the girl and her new boyfriend. 18 years old and his life is over, too. ++++++++++++++ going to put on my jammies, eat dinner and get ready for AI and dancing. hello to all!

RN-Cinngrl, glad to hear that your nephew and all are being taken to a safer area. It does my heart good to hear inspiring stories such as your nephews'; someone raised he and his fellow students right. This will certainly be a life changing experience for them all. Tabby, what a loss and tragic event. This mother, and all involved are in my prayers.

RN, I'm wondering when it's going to hit me that I'm actually done school. I went and got my grad photos done today, and picked up my gown and hood for the ceremony, and it STILL hasn't hit me yet. LOL

RN, Twinkie, I'm going to visit family for a couple of days then look for a job. I already went to Cuba a few weeks ago, so I already got my vacation LOL RN, I just got home from my first grad week event that me and the other executive planned and it went really well. We had food for people, a good DJ, and a open $600 dollar tab. LOL We bought pitchers for every table and then near the end of the night, 2 trays of some kind of shooters. haha
