I know how proud you must be of Amanda. It is so nice when a child has a goal and strives very hard to see it thru. It makes you want to do all you can to help them. We are that way with Austin. His whole life he has known his plan. Just not sure of what kind of work he would get into. We always said he would have to be his own boss not that he is not good with taking orders he is very good at being the leader.
Tell your insurance girl Connie to call me, I'll fix them right up. Oh, how I wish I could for you for sure. It's that not knowing the outcome that makes it so hard for you.
Cookies sound like fun. I have always had my girls and grandchildren work in the kitchen with me. It is tons of fun and they feel like they have acomplished something.
Amanda has always been such a go getter. I had to work hard to get good grades and they seem to come easy to her.
Connie is such a sweet person. Dr D's nurse finally called me back and I told her I needed the letter of medical necessity. So she was suppose to put a note on my chart so the Dr D can write it, but the kicker is......he has been out sick this week and won't be back until Monday

. I feel like I am running into a wall at every turn.
Lacey has one more year and will have her degree in Humanities. I have no idea what the heck you do with a degree in Humanities. We fought for almost a year before she went to Mission Georgia Master's Commission. The tuition is $11,000.00 a year and they can have no job at all. I told her if she could come up with half of the money, I'd quit fussing. I just couldn't see her making a living doing something like missionary work or work in a church.
The people at our church stood behind her and donated over $3,000.00. They also pledged to keep sending her money the first year. So, I stopped fussing. I still worry a lot though. I don't know how in the world she's going to earn money to live.
Right now, she is dating one of her fellow Mission students, Jessie. His parents are pastors and travel all over the United States helping children who have been abused. They also run a homeless shelter in Tennessee. Jessie has traveled to India and two other countries that I can't remember doing missionary work.
The thought of Lacey going out of the country scares me to death. Heck, I am scared to death when I know it's her day to work at the homeless shelter in Atlanta. She said some of the people are nice to her and some are downright mean to her.
I just continue to pray for her every day. I know that the good Lord above has a plan for Lacey. I just hope that plan is to keep her safe and sound in the good ole U.S.A.
I knew Amanda wanted to go into the computer field. I thought it would be a good choice. Her freshman year her minor was German language, but sophomore year she decided to change it and was able to get enough business classes to graduate with the double major. She has a couple of friends who are art majors. ART majors? I asked her why in the world they majored in art? The two girls are sisters, one wants to go into graphic design and the other wants to be a painter. I told Amanda that, in my opinion, being a painter was dependent on talent not college.
Amanda's boyfriend is majoring is business of some sort

. Matt's dad is a politician and his mom owns a catering and florist business.
I don't even try to push Tyler. He has got to get more serious before we will even discuss him going to college

I know you worry about Lacey. I was holding my breath when Amanda said the home office, for the company she is interviewing with, is in Atlanta. I glad they have an office here in Mobile.
Good morning dear Dana. I hope you are having a grand day. I wish you were here with me enjoying the 16 degree temp and snow flurries. Ok, I lied. I do wish I were there with you tho. That is no lie and not because of the weather either. I hope you can have a semi-productive day and your pain and aggravation is not as severe.
Ginny
I so wish it would snow here. We didn't get any the other day. It is pretty cool here. It is 39 here now, but it isn't suppose to get much cooler. I didn't accomplish much of anything today. My leg was REALLY hurting today. I called to get the doctor to write me another Rx because I am almost out of pain meds. Well, he is still out and won't be back until Monday. I have 4 pain pills to last until Monday

. OH, I just wish this was over with. I want to go see the Christmas decorations in the mall
