Please let him get in somewhere. Then he will have a real choice.

Clearly it was too good to last.

I don’t know what effect fiddling with the race/ethnicity boxes on your app has on your chances, but if you’re going to do that sort of thing while applying to the same schools as your identical twin you might want to find out what boxes they intend to check.

Sometimes stone single motherhood is a bitch

oops. didn’t realize I’d be censored. It’s a beach

I just need to get over knowing that he’s being overlooked due to the politics and brown-nosers at the school. He’s not complaining. Why should I? But, as his mama, it’s killing me. That sport has made me into a total anti-social person. 99% are fake and will put your kid down in a blink of an eye.

Sigh. Again, he’s not bothered. I need to focus on other aspects of his HS career.

Been wanting to say this for a while
Yes, yes I know my child is different & yes I know she seems sad. Her cousin died -they were close-lived down the street. Spent Summers, Holidays & weekends together. She was there, when the call came, when they told us in the hospital. She was the one that had to pick me up off the floor. Watch her Aunt be carried out. She had to call his brother who was traveling with his grandparents and tell them.
So YES I know she’s different. Sad. Yes, she got a B in an AP class. Get over it -
Yes, I know it wasn’t her brother, but he was 20 and then he died.
Perspective people
& I wish her teachers would read the damn email

I have no idea where my house key could have gone…now I have to pay 135$

I really wished I had held out longer. What a hot mess.

What a hot mess.

Well, that was a weird rant…

I am so over Facebook nuts and their crazy rumors! I attend a trade show every year for my hobby. I mentioned on a vendor specific Facebook page that they only reason I am going to the trade show this year is to purchase new items from that vendor. I got a PM from someone telling me that they read “somewhere” that this vendor won’t be at the trade show this year and I should make other plans. This is a major vendor for this show and has been at this show for at least the last 8 years. I already booked flights and rooms and paid fees. So I called the company to confirm if they will or will not be there. They thought I was crazy for asking about them missing their biggest show of the year and even offered to take a pre-order so I could pick up the products I want at the show without worry about them selling out.

Really, why would someone in a very niche hobby go around spreading rumors? When I told the vendor why I was calling they asked for the individual’s name and I gave it to them! Hope they contact her about her rumors.

It is almost March…arrrrrggggg. Not sure how much more waiting is required…

The black cloud over my town needs to be lifted - no more deaths and tragedies - enough already!

LOL - smart man! He ran for the hills!!

Zora was so keen. She saw you coming before you were even born. She warned me.

Really? After you were so amazing yesterday you acted like such an *** today?
You could not simply say what you felt but had to just be a butt all day long.
AND then blame me?
Guess what buddy–tomorrow we need to spend apart.
I have gobs of interesting things to do.
You just cannot even own up to your own self.
