I'm watching that Three Stooges short I mentioned. Found a website that plays it in Quicktime!! Woo-HOO!
Jr. and Nana just did the dishes.
I think I need to go lie down.
(Later)
Would have been mine if it hadn't been for The Stooges....
See you later, Corin.
Did you accomplish the retreat's goals?
Heh...I just called and told him the graduation date and he said "Ok...but don't tell anybody!" So he must be still a little anxious about it not happening.
And it might not. If they don't approve this thesis this semester, it won't.
But his committee keeps saying "It'll be done this semester".
So we're more hopeful than we've ever been.
But still......
Heh heh!
~nervous laugh~
Yeah, when guns are involved, I'd say the 'conflict resolution' has gotten vey series.
It'll be fine, 2J. :-)
I need to find pictures that show the flowers better - I have no idea what they're gonna look like!
She said they'd be pink and clustered, as I recall.
Woo-hoo! Happy for ya both, 2J!
We also checked out the PODS company. PODS lets you keep the container longer, and it's at ground level, so you can fill it as you pack, but it's a little more expensive for the move. What's not clear on their website, is the cost per day as you're packing it.
UPack only gives you the container for two days, so you have to get everything packed and ready to go, but it's less expensive to move with them, than the PODS. Both sites have a way to estimate moving costs, though.
Oh boy, taxes! SirKit has to get ours done so he can do the FAFSA for Clare's college stuff.
Steve said I can't tell anyone till he's just about to walk across the stage. Heh heh!
We're both still very apprehensive. This is gonna be a long semester.
He's staying this evening and working on the thesis...the things the committee suggested this past Friday. He hopes to get it in by the end of this week and then he's going to say "I'm available to meet with you at your convenience any time next week." and put their feet to the fire a bit so they won't need "reminding".
Well, 2J, at least you have something IN WRITING, so there will be no more confusion, and there is TRULY an end in sight!!
WooHoo PARTAY!! Steve having that sheepskin will be a great Mother's Day gift for YOU, 2J!!
Right. Steve will go this afternoon and sign up for the two hours...he has the name of a woman in admissions that will sign a "card" for him.
So really...everything, but the thesis, is complete. All his requirements are met, all his graduation paperwork is filled out.
Come'on, THESIS!!!
UPack is the one I'm planning on going with for my move.
I don't have that much, but it's enough to where I can't ship it all via USPS or UPS.
If you only have enough to fill 12' of space, that's all you're charged for, and they don't lose anything, because they fill the trailer up with stuff from another family, or freight that needs to go in the direction your stuff is going.
The logistical planning division for that company must be vey interesting.
Heh, too late, but if you can't tell your friends, how can you let them know the date to pray for!?
