Scary Moments

Freaking Out!
Had the scare of a lifetime the other day. Tawneey was MIA – she was almost four hours late home from school, we hadn’t heard from her, the buses had not encountered any problems and the school would not help at all. They said they could not even confirm that Tawneey was a student there. I was so ready to start calling hospitals and then the police. Talk about a rise in blood pressure!
Luckily, all worked out. She had stayed after school to help deliver some puppies and got caught up so she only tried my cell phone once although the call never came through. The really sad part is that Cheryl actually drove to the school and still could not get any help from them and Tawneey was on campus at that moment!
We all learned a valuable lesson that day: we have become to dependent on our cell phone contact lists, that we don’t really know each others phone numbers. That will be corrected from now on.
Until next time…memorize your phone book!
