Bad Day

Today, did I like today? NOO! Today was horrible, terrible absolutely dreadful because…… IT SNOWED!!!! I didn’t want it to snow today. Its May. May is spring, not winter. I hate winter when it’s in the wrong spot. I like winter when it’s in December, because that’s my birthday. I like it in January and February too. But snow in may? Whoever heard of snow in may after it was just a really hot day outside!

Has mother nature gone crazy? Or does she just have the flu and sneezes a lot so snow comes down?

So at first, I woke up and was like, “hhm, rain.” Then I noticed it seemed to be going slow. And I knew it was snow because it turned white. So I ate my breakfast in the van, but first I had to go out and get my football out of the snow, because it was my special one. Then I had to get the mail. It was soaked but it survived.

School was just like normal. Today I finished my story of “the three little ostriches and the big bad nothing.” It’s a funny story. If you could hear it you would probably think it was funny too. So after that I started another story called “the three little salmon and the big bad grizzly bear.” I thought it’d be good because they’re kind of rivals or something. At projects, we worked on our model grain bin. We’re learning about corn, by the way. So we were working on our grain bin and we were doing pretty good but we need a way to get the corn up through the auger. We were doing sort of good but we ran out of time so I guess we’ll work on it tomorrow.

Well lunch and recess, same. But at recess we got to play this game called Trouble and I had to be red and a kid, my friend named Ryan, he was one space away from getting his last person home, and it was 10, but I got a six on my turn and got to roll again and got a five so I got home and I won the game. My friend Ryan got second, my friend Cooper got third but my friend Sophie got last. I was pretty happy that I beat a kid who everybody thought was perfect at stuff – Ryan – aka Mr. Perfect.

Today at bright horizons, a place that I hate, that’s my after-school place, we couldn’t go outside, because of course, it was SNOWING. So the stupid thing was we had to stay in the same darn spot the whole time, and we couldn’t even go to the gym, which would have been boring too, but not as boring as where we were. Finally my mom came and picked me up. We went to my brother’s school and picked him up. We went home and had this awesome supper called thai chicken. It was thai chicken with rice and peanut butter sauce, and that made it good. And there were peanuts and cilantro or herbs and cucumbers, green onions. It was hot. And I like hot stuff. But when I took a bite of the rice, I spit it out because it was way too hot. Way way way too hot. So I drank some water and that was cold and it hurt my nerves. Then I decided to go outside and get some pictures of what winter was like in May. The tulips were surviving. The poor red tulip bent down. I hope it didn’t die. I walked around. Me and my brother had a mini snowball fight. Nobody hit anybody. Then I came in. That was my boring day. Except for the good dinner by my mom. She’s a good cook. A really, really, really, really, really good cook. The end.

My brother bo’s side of the story:

I had a good day. I had a yummy breakfast. Pancakes. And Gavin wasn’t here. And the supper was really good. The goodest part of the supper was the bread and the cucumbers and the onions. And I really liked the peanuts. And the blackberries tasted really good and there was just three strawberries. And I had a good day. I watched one Curious George.  And I am about to go to bed. And I taked a bath. And that’s my story. And I did quiet reading time at my preschool.

And now that’s my reading. There. That’s it. That’s my reading. There’s my story. It’s not that much of a long one like Mazy’s. And me and my brother played football downstairs. And my brother taked a shower. And my mom named me Bo. And my mom has glasses and she has blonde hair. And she has flowers on her pants. And black pants! And that’s it.
