getting around

My 6-year old step-son was sick yesterday. His teacher called and told me that he had a bad headache and crying. She was wondering if I could pick him up to bring him home. I can't.

That is one of things that really frustrates me here. It's so hard to go around in this place without a car. Places are too far and not in a walking distance unlike from where I came from. There is no public vehicles that I can take to be able to go from one place to another. But this is something that I need to get used to. I live here now to I have to learn to accept it.

Well, my step-son's teacher called my mother-in-law and in a couple of hours he was home... jumping, running and bouncing around. Hmmmm... sick, huh.
