Will The Worries EVER End?????

Well, it is Midnight, and I can't sleep.  This is the second night in a row...  Last night I was worried about work.  Tonight my worries are much worse.  Not only do I still have worry about making ends meet, but now I have to worry about whether or not my children will be able to go to the same school next year!  I got blindsided by the news today that the school superintendent is recommending several school closings (that I already knew), but now she is recommending that MY NEIGHBORHOOD be redistricted to a school that has a terrible reputation!  Seventy children from Laurel Ridge will be sent to a school that has a terrible academic ranking!   I am just shocked and very very upset by this.  My children love their school.   And so do I.  In fact, for months I have been saying that Laurel Ridge is the ONLY reason that I would hesitate leaving this city.  Seriously.  I love the fact that the school is small, and the parents are so involved and close knit.  The principal and teachers all know the kids by name.  I can't even believe that I am having to worry about this.  I have been sitting in front of the computer for hours now reading the School Board's Proposal and trying to make sense of this.  I have been researching the Magnet Programs and Theme Schools and trying to figure out if I can get my kids into one of those...  I have been trying to formulate an email to send to the Board Members to convince them to vote this proposal down... 

Tonight I went to the PTA meeting that was held to discuss the Proposal.  The PTA President urged us to all send emails and attend the Public Board Meetings that will be held in early March.  She urged us to canvas the neighborhood to encourage other homeowners to petition the Board against this action (after all, this redistricting is going lower the value of our homes).  I will definitely get involved.  I can't sit still and watch this happen without putting up a fight... Right now though I am so tired and overwhelmed by it that I just don't know what to do or think.  That's the problem, I can't stop thinking and worrying...  I'm not even making sense right now.  It is gonna be a long night.
