Oh what a day....well really it was just an hour of my day!

I was thinking today I wasn't going to have something to blog about, but I was wrong...


This is what happened in Bucharest today. There was a huge protest and I didn't take this picture, but when I search on line for a picture I think this was todays. The only reason I would question it is because since moving to Bucharest there has been to many protests to count! And todays really annoyed me. Don't get me wrong, I love a power to the people fist pump just like the next guy, and if I was Romanian I would have so been there today...

In fact Ray and I did take my Mom to a protest while she was here visiting...


See I like a good protest, but just not today. Not when I had to go through that part of the city to pick up the kids from school. Yes there are other ways to go, but I don't know them. So of course I go on my way and I realize that one street is closed, so I think that's okay but I do know I can just go around this way...well after going around that way the road I had to take was closed because of all of this, so I just went with the traffic and it went somewhere I didn't know!

What came next was a panicked, trying not to sound panicked phone call to Ray....I AM LOST!!! So he said....calm down, to which I assured him, I am calm (no I'm not!) and he told me how to go, well the way he told me was of course...closed due to the sticken protest! So there was a third way to go. I got off the phone with him because it is illegal to talk on the phone and drive and there were police everywhere!

So I'm sure people thought I was super crazy, I was honked at to many times to count, and of course I was talking to myself, well I was talking to my only passenger, Benjamin, but he had no idea what was going on! But I made it to the kids school and home....and now I am jealous of the people who's kids go to school with Parker and Lizzie and have drivers that pick their kids up....I think I might need one of those!
