DD thinks she has an infection from where her wisdom tooth was removed. She had an appointment with student health for late this afternoon, but she got up early to walk over there when they first openned because it had gotten worse. They would not see her and told her to come back at 9:40. I was not impressed and she is really upset. She is now missing class which she did not want to do because she is too sick to go and she has to return to student health. She is 14 hours away so, I can not just drive over and help. Hopefully this will get resolved soon.![]()
Oh no! I hope this has been taken care of and she's on the mend! Was it an infection after all? I can imagine how helpless you and the others must feel when you know your kid is sick, feeling awful, and missing classes. I told DD to keep a small bottle of hand sanitizer in her backpack and to use it, especially in the dining gall after touching the serving spoons where the food is served buffet style. She hasn't gotten sick yet (knock on wood), but it's only a matter of time.
My DD is now buried in school work. She is experiencing what we told her about for the past year. She got out of class today at 1pm and worked on assignments and studied until 8pm with only a 30 minute break for dinner. She said her chemistry lab write-ups are killer. I don't miss that part about college. Her roommate rarely has homework.
. Everything seems to be going well for him and I am so happy for him.

He says he doesn't need his car, plus it still needs repairs, so he left his car, and you know what that meant...the last day of my mini-vacation I had to drive him to school, and turn around and come back home. He did laundry, did an online test for school, went to a couple of football games with friends, and spent time with the last of his friends who are off to school (this friend's school has trimesters..Drexel he says
). So I told him he needs to let me know as early as possible if he thinks he wants to come home for a weekend. And don't let it be for at least another month.
He was ok with that as he says weekends are quiet at school, and he can actually get some work done.
He invited us up to meet his new roommate (now he has a third person in the room) and his suitemates, but they weren't around. I thought it was kinda cool he wanted to introduce us. 

) I told him sure, and asked if he wanted to stay for dinner since I was making his favorite parmesan meatloaf. His reply was, and I quote, "YUM. YESPLEASE. YES. Whattimetobethereformeatloafwhenplease" lol... Hey, I'm not new to this dealing-with-the-male-species thing -- Food is always a powerful attractant.
