Susie’s Crazy Day<br />

Susie got up late this morning. She was in a rush to get the kids dressed, fed and out<br />

the door. She made oatmeal for the kids but didn’t have a chance to eat any herself.<br />

She grabbed a bagel as she ran out the door.<br />

At school, Susie was really busy finishing off a project about her community. She had<br />

to go to different businesses and community organizations to find out more<br />

information. She was really hungry at break time and ate an apple, a yogurt and she<br />

had a glass of juice and coffee with sugar.<br />

At lunch she rushed home to greet her children and make lunch for them. Every day<br />

the children come home for a hot lunch. She had some left over caribou stew from last<br />

night. They each had one bowl of stew and some bannock. After walking the children<br />

back to school, Susie headed over to the learning centre.<br />

When she arrived at the learning centre, class was already underway. She slipped into<br />

her desk after getting herself some coffee and started working on her math. She was<br />

hoping to complete her 130 level this term and start the 140 level in February, although<br />

she struggled with algebra sometimes. Finally, it was break time, and someone had<br />

brought in dried fish. She devoured two pieces and went back to work on her math.<br />

When school was done, she headed home to get supper ready so she could get her two<br />

boys to the hockey rink by 6:00 pm. They were in a tournament this weekend. She was<br />

rushed so she made macaroni and cheese with some frozen vegetables on the side. She<br />

also enjoyed a can of diet coke at the rink.<br />

After a long day of school, hockey and homework, Susie finally put the boys to bed and<br />

then enjoyed a big helping of ice cream!<br />
