They called him Kipper, Kipper the Dog...

Spent the day working and trying to tune out the Kipper the Dog theme song. Jude was home all day and a limited collection of DVDs became our nanny. I swear, I'm really not a crappy mother MOST of the time... I DID allow a brief Maisy interlude. (If you are unfamiliar with the joys of Maisy Mouse, let me direct you to this primer about Maisy from Mimi Smartypants.)

For those of you following our travails, Jude is NOT sick again, which is the typical reason he is home on a Monday.

In case you hadn't heard, Lawrence was hit by a tornado that damaged 60% of the buildings on the University of Kansas campus. So, when KU closes, apparently, so does our daycare.

This probably pisses me off disproportionately because Hilltop is also the official disease vector for the the city of Lawrence, KS. And also because I only learned about said closure after driving across town to an empty daycare parking lot at 7:30 in the morning.

Tomorrow should go better... Mike just heard news that the daycare will be open. The only spoiler would be a sick child but we all know that NEVER happens in our family.
