optional day

in my opinion, today was an optional day at school.  i don't know who decided to have our wind make-up day today and cut into our christmas vacation, but whoever it was is a killjoy.  isaac skipped school altogether, although partly because he's back on steroids and frequent breathing treatments.  sam skipped the first few hours, as did caroline, but they both eventually made it.  jake went and said half the school was taking a personal day, but he said it was one of the most fun days he's had as an officer, so go figure. 

while it may be tmi for most peeps, i had a colonoscopy.  last time i had one it didn't go well and they found several pre-cancerous polyps.  today went well--no new findings of irregular cells!  i don't have to go back for ten years.
