    So excited that we got the open enrollment acceptance call for our daughter today. That means that we'll be able to have her attend an A/Excellent rated school/system rather than a C/D/F rated school/system. We'll have a commute- 20 minutes on good days and into the secondary snowbelt, but we'll be up and out early. An incredible opportunity that, as a mama, brought me to tears for her. She's scared about being the new kid, but I explained that at the beginning of the year, she won't be the only new one there. We're working on orchestra for her. (She played orchestra all year last year, but it was with a limited school program and we didn't need to purchase or rent a harp. We need to see how this experience can translate over to violin for her.)

    So happy for the kiddo! =)

    Congrats!
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I'm seeing the Counting Crowes end of August. I want to learn more of their songs before the show. I only have "Round Here" on my Ipod. I found the CD case of their album "August and Everything". There is no CD inside. I turned my apartment over looking for it. It's nowhere... :hmmm:

    I saw them with Jenny in Dublin last June, and they were really good. First time seeing them for me too back then, and I only knew Raining in Baltimore. I really enjoyed the live rendition of the song Colorblind.

    Ever feel like no matter how positive you try to be, The negative comes along and shut's it down.Ever feel like you're so overwhelmed,that you feel yourself crawling out of your own skin.Ever feel like you just can't see the forest through the trees,The light at the end of the tunnel, The gold at the end of the rainbow,And once the smoke clears the air,There's more smoke.Nothing accomplished,Nothing gained, Nothing said,Nothing done.When sleep is the only escape, And 6 hours just isn't enough......Well,Have You??

    Yes, I have...it does get better....*hugs* If you need an ear or a shoulder feel free to PM me....
    Thanks my friend,I've just been having one of those days.weeks,months.I was venting into thin air,But I'm glad you all were here. <3

    Yeah, I do too. I guess that makes me bush pigish. :frowning:
    How come it's bush pigish for females and not males?
