It’s raining again here in Delaware. It rained buckets last Monday (May 12). Our neighborhood creek was over the road by 10 a.m.
Since we couldn’t get across the road one way, we went the other way. But as you can see, this creek was pretty high, too!
We don’t let Lucas ride the school bus, because we had too many problems with the driver. She kept dropping him off and leaving before he got inside, for one thing. That could have been a nightmare if no one was home, obviously.
The really scary part was that when we finally had enough of her and tried to talk to our school district about it (the school teachers had serious concerns about her, too), we were told that there was nothing they could do, and the district supported the driver!
But on this day, as I was leaving to go get Lucas from school, I saw a very scary site; I was so shocked, I didn’t even think to turn my windshield wipers on until after I took the first photo. (If you look closely, you can see the headlights reflecting in the water she’s DRIVING THROUGH!!)
This is a bus for disabled students (I could tell by the size of it as it passed by), and here it is, driving THROUGH a flooded road!! This road had “closed” signs up at both ends, and still this bus driver was stupid enough to drive through the flood.
She’s very lucky, and I’m very glad we drive Lucas to school…
On another note, it’s been crazy here as we worked on applying for guardianship for Lucas.
We finally had the court award it last Friday, so it’s now official; we can care for our own child (duh). I’ll explain all about that next!
