Highs and Lows

[justamom]

Hey, it's that time again! Last post was one month ago!

Highs-Well, got the taxes done, hired ANOTHER assistant who is pretty darn good and this WILL be our last chilly week.
Baby Girl has decided to SKIP SPRING BREAK!!! She has projects due and tests right after Easter so she is coming home to STUDY!!! Her grades are WONDERFUL this semester.
My son has Prom tomorrow night and all his buddies rented tails with top hates and canes. They are such a scream! I know this isn't a biggie to many, but I bought NEW TOWELS!!! Now I need to figure out the amount of salt to add to the first load
so they don't bleed all over everything.

Lows-Horrible-HORRIBLE cough! First my son had it, now I have it and Hubby is getting it. Since I haven't felt too good, all the work is piling up.

To all my AXO sisters-Easter is just around the corner and to those who celebrate HAPPY EASTER!
To those who honor Passover, I extend my best wishes as you commemorate the freedom and exodus of the Israelites.

JAM,

how much salt do you add? I always just throw a bit in-is there actually an amount I should be adding?

Highs: getting some of my spring cleaning done though I have a long way to go! The wildflowers this year are so beautiful-gorgeous bluebonnets-I just love Texas in the spring time.

Lows: the condo I wanted sold last week-blah! I too have had a nasty cough though it is finally going away.

AggieAXO, I had to look it up and it said 1/2 cup. There were other sites that said it didn't work! Still, so many people have used this method for years, can they ALL be wrong? My towels are ruby and heaven knows that will bleed and turn EVERYTHINK pink!
I guess I'll us warm water. Picked up Woolite's Dye Magnet as well. I'll try that on the second round!

While we are here, my sweet niece, (an AXO) and her boyfriend just broke up...over religion...she is so heartbroken. Everyone send "good thoughts" her way. She is crushed.

HIGHS:
My senior thesis is complete, bound, and in the hands of my advisors!
I made my grad school decision--NYC here I come!
It was BEAUTIFUL out here today! Everyone was in shorts, playing frisbee...awesome!
Today marks 3 years with the boy.

LOWS:
Once a week, my friends and I meet for dessert--one of us makes it. Today, it was my turn--and I made something fairly complicated. Why oh why did everyone (except one) flake out an hour beforehand? Pisses me off! Oh yeah...and it's too late to make dinner reservations for the anniversary dinner.

Hello all! It's been awhile!
Lows: DH is playing golf in the morning so I won't be able to sleep late! I'm so tired and need some serious sleep!
My baby girl turns 3 on Monday - so depressing! I need a baby fix!

Highs: I've almost complete my first year of graduate school! Have a few little things left to turn in, but for the most part, I am through with the semester!

[justamom]

HEY! Hope everyone is doing GREAT!

Highs
-My son just took his last test! No more school uniforms for him to wear or me to wash!!!!
-Last meeting before graduation party and then I'm done for the summer!!!
-All caught up at work and have a new assistant who is really GOOD!
-Daughter's grades should be exceptional this semester!!!
-Hubby is taking me on a trip as soon as son finishes rush!

Lows
-Son will be leaving in 3 months...my baby will be gone...
-Son's GF is starting to get on my nerves. SHE is not going to the same campus, so this SHOULD be under "Highs".
-Still haven't started painting the INSIDE of the house.
-My legs are soooooooo white! I tried the self tanning lotion and it looked OK for 2 days, but my heels took on a weird color!
-My Mother is getting so fragile...I am a bit frightened for her.

justamom- i just wanted to tell you that i think you're awesome. your posts are always among the highlights of greek chat. congrats for your family and for you!!

[justamom]

smiley21-What a sweet thing to say! I think you're pretty terrific!

As an added comment-We were ROLLED last night! I thought this was over!
I KNOW who did it. SHE did it! He wanted to hang with the guys and THIS is her response.

On the bright side-girls can't throw like guys, so it was pretty easy to pick up!

[AXJules]

You mean you got TPed??

Wow what a mature lil girl.

I would have beaten some ass!

[justamom]

AXJules, yes, TPed.

Here it is, they are done with school, and this is what a HS graduate thinks to do???

Heaven help us when they break up...and that's coming pretty soon according to his friends. It's summer, he's going away in 3 months and he wants to spend as much time with his buddies as possible since only a few are going to LSU.
He knows that life is just begining and the sooner she accepts it, the better. He just can't figure out the better way-ease out or cut it off. He's a good guy and cares enough to try ad make it easy. She has some things she needs an escort to and he doesn't want to leave her in the lurch.

...and then there's the graduation trip to Florida for whch I believe he would like to be unencoumbered.

High
-It is the weekend!!!!

Low
-I miss my boyfriend.

[Munchkin03]

Highs:
-Graduation is in a week! The family and boy are coming Thursday!
-I passed two classes, so I'm definitely graduating!
-I've been going out and having a great time every night.


Lows:
-I know there are some people I will never see again.
-I still have tons of packing to do.
-I'm hungover!

[AXO_MOM_3]

Lows: I started an intense three week summer session today for school today. Yuck! I need a loooonnnnggg break!

Highs: I've successfully completed my first year of grad school, and got great grades for the semester. Yippee! My sister in-law just bought a really cool house with a pool! Now if it will just get warm enough to swim in it...

[DaisyCrazy]

I'm new to GC, but I like this tread so I'm going to join in!

Highs: Only one more day until until the long weekend! My dance recital is this weekend (I take tap and jazz), and it's only 1 week until I go visit one of my AXO sisters in St. Louis.

Lows: I've been dancing every night this week to prepare for my recital and I'm getting worn out! It's been raining for practically a week straight (where's the sunny warm weather!?), and my boyfriend's dad had to be taken to the emergency room Tuesday night for an ulcer. He's going to be fine, but my boyfriend was totally freaked out when his mom called him crying telling him to meet her at the hospital.

That's all for this week!

High:
My boss just congratulated me on fine brainstorming and work on a headline that went on the front of the paper.
I got these really great 3-inch black heels for $40 from enzo!
I just got some really great brown wedge heels for $50 from banana republic!
I'm alive today.

Low:
My bf and I are on the verge of separating.
I'm in the process of moving out of the apartment we're sharing with each other.
I've cried and cried and cried.
I feel rejected, neglected and like shit.
