My Mum bought me a pair of warm winter boots, and they fit  :2thumbsup:

Now I am all set for doing my rounds when it starts to really snow.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

This happened yesterday, but it made my day, so here it is:

I was very tired and would have overslept to the point of being late to work,
but one of my downstairs neighbors left the building around 7 a.m. with loud slamming of doors,
which woke me from my deep slumber just in time to get ready for work!   :2thumbsup:

I got smacked in the head with a new career choice today. It would only take me 2 years full time to study for. Hmmm... :chin:

Nothing good, so far. And it doesn't look good, I might add.

There would have been a lot of laughs too!  :laugh:

Is studying full time for two years a workable option for you?  :viking:

No, but 4 years part time is, and I can do it via distance education.

I think it might be too late to apply though (to start next year). Something to start in 2012 perhaps :viking:

I hope you can do this! It sounds promising.  :thumbup:

My daughter "passed" the Social Health Program For Females at school.

Yes, this is the school sponsored program that "explains all about the nature of reproduction" between humans and warns budding young females of their impending social trials, most specifically, whether or not they should choose pads or tampons, etc...

She had a lot of questions - not ones that she did not know the answers to, but many questions that we had covered with her that she wanted to MAKE SURE that every one else knew the answers to, as well.

:hide:

Yeah, from the email I got from her teacher today, my darling daughter disrupted the "presentation" on many occasions to point out circumstances that the program was neglecting to "present" as part of this school sponsored program.

Uhm, we have given her our best, but we did not expect that she would herald this knowledge to the entire school. (Part of the reasoning behind my nine year old daughter having such an extensive education in this area, already, stems from the fact that my wife began to menstruate before she had had such an education. My wife's dear Mum did not think that she was old enough for this conversation yet, when my wife first came home from third grade with bloody pants. We wanted to avoid this scenario, but never knew that our darling daughter would become the "bloody" guru of feminine concerns at nine years of age, FFS! )


Anyway, another life trail upon the scoreboard for us.

I think it was a very good thing to explain all about her changing body to your daughter before the changes actually happened as opposed to after.

If she wants to educate her female classmates, I don't think that really is a bad thing, especially compared to her not knowing the real facts until the school "presentation" taught her.  It's not like she is telling them before they really need to know and it's not like she telling them that Santa Claus isn't real (which is what I did when I was a kid).

I wanted my daughter to feel like she could always ask me anything she needed to know, so she asked me in Home Depot in her best outdoor voice, "Where do the sperms come from in the first place and how exactly do the sperms get to the egg?"  It was a bit embarrassing, but the way I look at it, better she ask questions in less than optimal circumstances than feel like she can't ask.
