Good luck to her... :)

Uhm, Barbara, having you as a resource is . . well . . . a major advantage.

Like having a pro-coach give you tips on trying out for High School sports.

Well, James, I hope you meant that as a compliment...?!

She's a very bright girl, she had lots of stuff figured out before I even knew she was going to go through recruitment. That's not to say I didn't give her a few tips, but I also did my best to get letters of introduction to her from as many houses as I can. She's keeping a very open mind. In fact, although she was surprised to have gotten cut from 3 houses, she said (and I quote) - "At least I know where I stand and can concentrate more on the 9 houses I'm going to for Philanthropy". She'll be an asset to any house that is lucky enough to bid her.

what a great attitude she has! she definately will be an asset to any group!

Definitely a compliment. Like having St. Peter give you tips on making it into heaven. (maybe I shouldn't have chosen a sports metaphor before)

Since, you are like the Patron Saint of Sorority Rush :)

Can there be Jewish saint? ROFL....

Thanks, James. You made my night. http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de//kiss.gif

Today's update! She got invites back to 8 of 9 and accepted invites back to:

apple
grape
pineapple
peach
orange

Apple, Pineapple and Peach are current top three (in no particular order) although she said she's grateful for all her invites and would love to go to prefs at any of the 5 houses. She's also WAY excited to see the skits and talk more with the sisters.

Alright! Go babysitter!

barb,
 

of course there can be jewish saints! haven't you heard of st. schlomo?

Ok, I am absolutely dying to know how this will turn out for her...

perfect...just perfect...
we know she knows the drill.
just know we're thinking about her, crossing fingers and whatever else works.
good luck...keep us posted.

wow! that is awesome! i can't wait to hear which fruit she picks.

Prefs...
 

I found out from her father that she went to prefs at:

grape
pineapple
orange

I don't know if apple & peach didn't invite her or if she declined an invite.

Bid day is today. As soon as I know to where she accepted a bid, I will post. I'm sure she's very busy with her new sisters!

HOW EXCITING!!!

Best wishes to your sitter!!!
