  1. The school my son attends hits most of your marks. It is not near a city. They do have a top notch Kiniseology department. He was originally going to major in Exercise Science. McDaniel College in Maryland
  2. Both my kids schools the students use lanyards. Only they keep the lanyard in their pocket with the lanyard hanging out.
  3. My son took ballet for a couple of years when he was ages 3-5. He loved it and he did it for as long as he enjoyed. Yes, we received our fair share of comments. My response was "He is happy". DH's response was a bit longer. It started with he is happy. Then he went on to educate the naysayers (people concerned about our 3 year olds sexuality) with the names of athletes who take ballet. With a healthy dose of I should be so lucky my son is the next Baryshnikov.
  4. We were going to go today. Best laid plans and all that.

    It's a wrap

    Yes, it is a good feeling. Congratulations to you, too.
  6. We held a graduation party for dd this past Sunday. This is it. It's a wrap. She has a few more philosophy classes, and one other subject to finish her final paper but I am not involved in either of those classes. I am starting my next chapter after graduating 2 from homeschool high school to college. I didn't think I could do it but this group offered tremendous help and support on our journey.
  7. My go to sites: www.budgetbytes.com www.ohsheglows.com www.chocolatecoveredkatie.com www.veganricha.com I find googling what ingredients I have will lead me to some interesting new sites.
  8. My favorite no cook meal. https://chefsavvy.com/rainbow-vegetable-spring-rolls/ Sometimes I make an almond butter dipping sauce instead of the chili sauce.
  9. Other. I think they have their place. I have a few oils that I use for various things. Cleaning/skin care. However, I detest when mlm people insist that they cure everything from a zit to cancer.
  10. I would like to drop prime but dh likes the streaming and it is awfully convenient when I need to order something to ship to my son at college and soon my daughter, too.
  11. I have been using Pantene volumizing shampoo for decades. My hair is healthy.
  12. After much ado about which school to choose. A decision has been made and the deposit paid. DD will be attending Goucher College Why? Because she felt at home on the campus and really connected with the students and professors she met and the swim coach. Major: Psychology. Who knows what it will be once she has a year of classes under her belt.
  13. I was never successful getting a teenager thing going. Based on my experience the teens don't want anything to do with the preteens. I wish you success in your endeavor. In my area the teens were few and far between. Most went back to school for high school. The ones who were left, my teens didn't connect with. At one point they refused to go to anything because it was always overrun with younger kids. They were tired of being the oldest. Once they hit high school 13 year olds were in the young kid category. We ended up doing our own thing with a couple of friends through the high school years.
  14. We are getting closer to a decision. To her surprise she decided that the school her brother attends (McDaniel) had a lot to offer her when she went to visit him and attend admitted student day. Last night she told me she is now thinking Goucher is where she is meant to be. She has a couple of questions that she will reach out to get answers for and will hopefully be ready to commit soon.
  15. This has not gotten any easier. I was ready to tell her to pick Clark. But she got back from school number 4 a couple of days ago and I heard a level of excitement that I had not heard when she toured the other schools. We told her without thinking about it-which school would she drop if she had to drop on right now. She nixed Albright. Even though she likes the school and they gave her the most money the area is still very depressed. This leaves her with Clark, Susquehanna, and Goucher. Susquehanna- cost the most. Clark-is really the best academic overall and she liked the people she met but the swim coach did not leave her with the warm and fuzzies. Goucher-also an excellent school and she really liked the coach and the swimmers she met. Since her brother is also attending school in Maryland - Goucher moves up on the convenience to the parents pro list. But. Not our decision.
