We've all heard that expression time and time again. I'm normally an on- flusterable scut. I pride myself in my Ability to remain calm, cool and collected on occasions when lesser women would crumble under the strain, Here I am, holding a full time position never before held by a woman; keeping a large, large house in rather passable condition; helping a husband in his career; mothering three nor- mally upsetting children; and loving it; and generally living a happy, active life centred around my family and my work. Though my days begin early and end late, I'm able to go through each day with very lit- tle abnormal stress. I menage to keep my sweet disposition and separate my various roles one from the other rather capably, I feel. No sweat. But this past weekend, I very nearly lost control. It was three full days and nights of putting the best foot forward and it almost did me in. First off, it' was the high school formal dance. My eldest son as social convener was in full charge of the event. My only daughter had been working shoulder to shoulder with him and with many, many other kids to make the dance a gala affair. But naturally, there was the excitement and homey hub-bub which goes with a for- mal within our family - things like picking up the flowers, get- ting the, tux ready to go, finding the funds for every little detail, having the family car in tiptop shape for the evening. You un- derstand. In the bargain, a loving uncle and aunt from Toronto arrived by bus to spend the weekend. This couple lives quietly alone in an apartment where one day is much like another I suspect., I wondered if they were prepared for the hectic pace kept by our fivesome ... and I wasn't too surprised when they sat at times with their eyes fixed on the goings and comings not saying a word. And husband had a problem.

And that was only Friday By Saturday, things became even more complicated. The eldest son, still draggy froni a late night after the formal dance had to leave home early in the morning for school where the big cleanup was underway... car desirable, The grocery shopping was still to be done....car necessary. Visiting uncle and aunt had some special errands to do requiring transportation. Daughter needed to go out of town for appointment ... car a must. Uncle and aunt needed ride to family wedding anniversary. And I was expecting a car, load of family from my side of the house for dinner, With time running out for meal preparation for my guests and with no one to, help, I had to complete chauffeuring before I could begin cooking. Right on schedule, my dinner. guests arrived. Somehow, din- ner was a qualified success (how that happened I've yet to discover). But the day was far from en- ded. In fact, it, had hardly begun. For the trick now was to get my guests happily out of the house so my husband and I could dress for an out-of-town party to which we'd accepted an invitation, Fate dealt me another blow at this point ... in- stead of seven leaving, four more arrived. There was only one recourse ... to put a time limit on the visit. As the hour of our depar- ture neared, I pleasantly but firmly asked everyone to leave so we could go get the babysit- ter and proceed with our plans,...which took us into three in the morning before we made it home to bed with daughter and uncle and aunt in tow. Sunday morning, it was business as usual. The youngest, well-rested after a night with a serious babysitter was up early. He woke uncle and aunt who got up, ready for breakfast. Breakfast over, husband an- nounced he was ,,expected in London at tt i meeting. Just before he left, he found his meeting would have to wait un- til he had taken care of an urgent family matter at a hospital enroute to London. I was left at home to worry and to entertain uncle and aunt un- til their departure in early evening by bus. Late that evening with the family all at home and in bed with things returned to normal, I reflected on the weekend. I'd nearly broken a couple of times, but now that I was back to editing and cooking and cleaning and mothering, life looked bearable.

As a reward for their efforts in making the syrup, the pupils had pancake parties in their rooms to which other staff members and pupils were in- vited, Education Week Though Education Week (April 8-14) has come and gone, the parents are reminded that every week of the year is Education Week, During this special week, parents could visit the classrooms on Tuesday, April 10th, to observe the various activities and on Thursday night, they were in- vited to the school for a social evening, Unfortunately, the turn-out of parents wasn't as great as expected and we would like to think that the parents have not forgotten their school.
