Oh my gosh, congratulations <:-P @itsgettingreal17 !!!
@itsgettingreal17 You alone are giving me carpel tunnel with all your announcements! Suffice to say I ‘Like’ all the rest of your announcements, okay? I’ve got no more likes to give! Crikey!
No, really, congrats.
OK, I’ll post a little good news. My daughter has driven two days in a Midwestern snowstorm with no accidents! :O)
@MACncheez I literally LOLed! :))
@itsgettingreal17 – wow! Congratulations! <:-P <:-P <:-P
@MACncheez! My D17 got her driver’s license less than a week ago–just in time for all the snow and ice! Really, really hoping I can say the same thing this winter!
@MACncheez, that may be the biggest-deal good news yet!
(…says the guy whose daughter recently managed to put his insurance company on the hook for about $12k in property damage.)
Wow, @itsgettingreal17 , what a day your family is having! Congrats!
@SincererLove - So sorry to hear about CalTech (you know I’ve been rooting for Cali schools for your D (and I still think she should think about Mudd…)
Congrats to @snoozn and @itsgettingreal17 and anybody else I’ve missed.
And big hugs for those that were denied/deferred.
@novicemom23kids - that seems incredibly unfair, especially having discussed it beforehand. I would’ve fought that one. Glad it didn’t end up being a big deal.
@STEM2017 - thank you for sharing…you’ve got one brave S.
Dang @itsgettingreal17 congrats to her <:-P
And they’re calling all 52 finalists this weekend. Quick turnaround from this past weekend!
I think students who don’t get the scholarship would prefer to hear via email. Awkward. Fingers crossed for your D!!!
Speaking of awkward, D has been getting calls from schools she was originally considering but fell off the list. Very awkward!
^^Last year one of the winners was called during the middle of church :))
Yeah, very awkward. The head guy acknowledged that yesterday.
A double woo hoo congrats to your D @itsgettingreal17
less than 24 hrs for lottery EA!
Caller ID has been our friend these past couple weeks. B-)
@srk2017 - Good Luck! - Which School? S17 should hear from his total reach REA - Notre Dame. Speculation on CC is that decisions could come out tonight.
@jpc763 - Thanks. Harvard!
I will be hearing about our decision for dinner in about 1 hour: Homemade chili or going out to eat.
ETA: In our house, ED refers to Eat Dinner.
@MACncheez - I thought you guys are locked in due to snow
@MACncheez Our dinner is being picked up at Costco soon!
