Oh DB! I am so sorry! That poor girl  I'm a big believer in "things happen for a reason" but for her to get all the way there & then get sent home is tough. And 3 stress fractures. Oy! Hugs to her and her family...

Hi everyone!
I am a longtime creeper even though I have no reason whatsoever to be posting on this thread (I'm a senior at UNC-CH - no kids in the picture ha ha). I just find you all very entertaining, and this thread has been fun to follow! It takes me back to my high school/freshman year of college days... LOL.
DougBetsy, that totally sucks about your son's girlfriend. I have a cousin who is currently applying to the Air Force/Naval Academies, and his mom is stressed to the max. At least she has the chance to return next year when her poor foot will be better.

DB - What awful news! I hope her foot heals, and that the year away turns out to be as much of a positive experience as possible.
I just received my final report card. Not too great, but a solid 3.3 for my last semester.

DB- what disappointing news But glad a plan B fell into place so quickly, she can make the most of it (and take it extra carefully next May/June!)

Oh no!! I've had the young lady in my thoughts. I'm so sorry that this happened to her. I'm hoping, though, that permanent damage has been averted. Awwww man!

DB: I'm also SO sorry to hear about your son's GF. She sounds like a wonderful young woman and I know that she will make the most of this coming year and of her ultimate future in the AFA, though her start is delayed. She is lucky to have the love and support of her family and yours. Wishing her the very best.
T_c: You made it. That's what counts! I know you'll continue to soar at Smith. And there will always be a front row seat here for you when you check in.   | |

DB - I'm sorry to hear about your son's girlfriend being sent home from the AFA. She must be very disappointed. At least the door is not closed for good. Next year she'll be back there!
Too bad she's not old enough for a margarita!  | |

Oh, DB, that just stinks. I can understand why it had to be done, but gosh. Trying to look on the bright side -- this should make it easier for ds and gf to maintain their relationship, right?
Ds has been e-mailing me from work and is such a hoot. I have hopes now that he'll keep in touch when he's going to college!

DB- I was praying for her to be ok. Glad she has the back up plan too. Maybe this is just what her foot needs to really heel. And then she can go back stronger next year. And at least she gave it a shot.
I am loving all the intros!

DB - So sorry to hear the bad news! But yay that she will be able to attend McDaniel and go back to the AFA next year. And we will all be here waiting for you to share the good news!
Apparently D's schedule is in transition. Since the MT BFAs all take the same classes together all 4 years, there is a very set schedule with really only one section of each class offered. D is the first BFA student (this is the first year of the BFA degree at CCU) to also be in the Honors program and of course there is a scheduling conflict with required theatre and required honors courses. I told her I was sure they would work it out but that's what happens when you are the guinea pig. I knew this was feeling too easy but we will stay | |

DB, I have to admit I was afraid of this news, I assumed they would be running and working out hard right away, I had my fingers crossed her foot would hold up, my son had stress fractures in his foot this past winter from running stairs and general over training.
I forgot to say why I chose the screen name I did, I read CC for a while before I joined, I must have been reading the wrong threads because I thought an awful lot of people on CC were nuts. I wanted to say something so I decided to declare myself as crazy right from the start! I kind of like the name now, and I know most people on CC are not crazy after all. At least not this group. I should also say anothercrazyson is a fanatic about rowing and working out.
