HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

      Quite the memories ... here's one I will never forget.  It was our daughter's first year in school. On Halloween I decided to bake cookies and take them to school.  As I backed out of the driveway, I felt a lump and heard a howling and screeching.  I had backed over her cat!  OMG!
      I had also dressed like a clown, to add a little fun for the kids.  After running over the cat, I ran to the landlord's place (a rural property, with a couple rentals on it).  It was about 9 am.  I was so upset, crying, with my clown makeup running down my face.  My landlady answered the door.  I told her what had happened and she doubted me, because I was dressed as a clown!  At first, she laughed, thinking I was just playing a trick on her.  After I had convinced her the truth, she came and helped me wrap and put the cat into my car.
      You can only imagine the looks I got as I was driving down the highway, dressed like a clown, with tears streaming down my face.  It was quite a day.  The cat was all right, with minor injury. And, the kids got their cookies.  But when I went in, I pulled the teacher aside, to explain what had happened and that I wasn't going to stay.
      I didn't want to tell the whole class, or my daughter what had just happened.  I didn't want to put a damper on the day.  But, being the curious kid she was, my daughter wanted to know why her mom was crying.  So I did explain what had happened.
      I felt so bad for our daughter, and for her teacher.  It was the teacher's first year of teaching!
