Molly, that happened to me once; over and over again; it was driving me crazy. We have caller ID so I tried calling back to that number but it just rang and rang and no one picked up. I finally figured out that it was a fax machine calling our number, thinking it was calling another fax machine. So I called our phone company and somehow they were able to trace the origin of the call and tell them to stop calling.
p.s. These were long distance calls and we were charged for them...........had to call the phone company again to have the charges removed. Check your next bill.
Just received an e-mail from boychild #2........he is considering taking a "semester off" from college..........and would like Dad & I to offer our imput...........
His reasons are many; he feels stagnant and apathetic toward his studies right now......his grades are not terrific at the moment (although his GPA so far is very good); He would like to work for a while in order to pay off some debts and gets his car fixed; his girlfriend lives here and they would like to be able to spend more time together; she is going to his school next fall so he knows he will want to go back then; he's unsure about his major (history) and doesn't want to waste money/credits on something he might end up hating; etc. etc. etc. He says he wants to get some "discipline and order" back in his life and hopes that taking some time off from school would accomplish this.
Of course I would prefer that he stay in school............but I would support his decision either way, I guess.........
Not quite sure how to handle this one.
Any advice?
