The New Hobbit Hole

So let's start one!

I've been enjoying the flap about the gash. I can't see the difference between the two pics myself, except that the newer one is lighter.

I got the Precious! Okay...semi-precious

[2Jedismom]

Oh Lord, get me a valium...

I have no opinion on squirrels, secret or otherwise.

Don't get me started on deer, though.

A deer ate my hostas

But only the varigated variety

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Squirrels may not have any redeeming qualities besides their cuteness, but deer don't even have that going for them.

IMHO, anyway.

My computer has been down for over a week

Thanks for the post! Have been wondering where you disappeared to!

Moose bites can be nasty.

Deer tastes good when prepared properly.

A moose bit my cheese.

I've had venison every way it can be prepared, and to my taste buds it's just plain nasty. Alway has been, even before I disliked deer.

Time for me to see if I need to swim home... later all (hopefully!)

Hullo there LCS! - Glad to hear you are OK! Thanks for checking in! We were all wondering!

Gonna get the computer fixed or is it new computer time?

Oh, I don't think you should have said that!

[HairOfTheDog]

Did you guys get your invitations to the Yahoo group? Is there anyone else that still isn't "IN"?

[HairOfTheDog]

Oops... I spells your name wrong on that last post and couldn't figure out what was wrong! (I thought you had TWO, not just ONE, if you know what I mean)

Did you get the instructions for the Yahoo group?

[JenB]

Is anyone here tonight? Did the squirrels get you?

Does anyone know anything about getting loans for school? I mean, can I, as a 19 year old undergrad with no assets, get $14,000 worth of loans? Some of you have been through this sort of thing, yes?

[HairOfTheDog]

I am here, my friend left a little bit ago, and I was about to hit the couch with your story!

I don't really know about student loans, but I know that you can get them fairly easily. The college probably has an information center that will have the forms and help with getting all your t's crossed! - Do they?

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

I'm here, watching news of the flooding and reading your story.

You need a student loan. As Hair suggested, check with the financial aid office of the college you'll be attending (if they have a website, look for student loan information there too). You might also check with your bank and/or credit union, too, as many offer student loans which are guaranteed by your state's student loan agency. You might also check into getting a grant and/or scholarship. Many state and federal grants and scholarships are based on performance on a standardized test (such as the SAT) and your family's economic standing.
