Stolen and Unwanted

Last night my dog scratched at the front door to go out for a walk. I opened the door, let him and and went back inside (for less than 1 minute) to get something. I opened up the door to call him and as I stepped outside I saw a man, on the side of the road in the process of getting ready to pick up Chancho and put him his truck! He saw me and quickly jumped in the truck and took off! If I had been one second longer my poor dog would have been dog napped! I could not believe it! I was telling my mom and she said 'I know you love him, but it is not like he is a pure bred dog. It makes you wonder why they were going to pick him.' First of all, my dog is soooo cute! So, I said to her 'Well, it was a beater truck, maybe they don't know what a pure bred dog is' lol She then wondered if that meant that my sweet dog (my words, not hers) was a beater truck type of dog. NO!!!! I am so glad we still have him!

So, I volunteer in my kids classes at school ( I know, I am wonderful). I go to the twins class on Fridays, James hits Parker's class on Friday and I asked Kylee to see if I could go on Mon or Wed to her class. Her teacher told her any day would work. I went in today and it was informative. The teacher did not even look up when I walked in. The kids were commenting that Kylee's mom was here, but I had to walk over to her and call her name. She then made it completely clear that she had no need or desire for me to be there. She told me that 'I would just be.........(big pause)' and I said 'In the way?' and she paused and then said 'bored'. I think she really wanted to say 'in the way'. She told me that if she ever needed me she would send a note home with Kylee. I will certainly not be holding my breath! Poor Kylee! She looked ready to cry. She really wanted me there. Oh, the joys of school!
