A holiday, but not a day off

So, today was a state and federal holiday, which means I didn't have to go to my job. However, the kids still had school, and the Youth Center was closed (it's a federal program). So, I got to take PB to school this morning, and then take Monster this afternoon. I was supposed to stay and help out in his room, but his teacher went home sick and didn't leave any directions. So I went home and did some chores. Then back to the school to pick up PB for a counselling appt, and then home to get more chores done. It was a busy day, and I think it would have been less so if I had gone to work!
