Habitat's and Ikea's

Sometimes I wonder how I get myself into things.... take yesterday for example. I went to pick the children up as usual to be greeted with excited children asking if I could come on a habitat walk with them today. Now we've got a meeting with the child and adolescent people today which will mean that I need to pick them up from school slightly early.
So I go into the class to check with the teacher what time the ramble will be back to school and come out finding myself roped in to help out on this walk, as well as my partner who is home at the moment. (well, if I'm going to have to suffer so is he)
I've spent all morning wondering how to get out of it without any success, so it looks like I'll be walking this afternoon with the children, getting out of breath and wishing I was somewhere else.
Mind you, I did have to smile, the children said that they'd been doing about habitat's at school and my partner asked when they were doing about Ikea's.... after much explaining the children got the joke, but I thought it was funny.... not so much though when you've had to explain it down to the minute detail!
