Can you believe it's August already? I really can't. This summer just flew by, it really did! We did some really really neat things this summer; I can in all honesty say all the changes that happened this summer have been so great, and our vacations were all wonderful; I got to spend time with my niece's - it's all good! But, I'll miss it! Soon, Pat will start school, and then the daunting task of college admissions begin. We've done so much college-search wise, and are pretty certain of the schools we've narrowed down. We've found so many schools that we feel Pat will fit so nicely into. Now comes the hard part: Admissions. I wake up nights thinkin' about, only to come to the realization that I'm not alone. How many other high school senior parents share my anxiety? A lot! I know there's a school out there that's a perfect fit for Pat, just like I know there's a school that will think Pat's a perfect fit for them! Stay tuned for my anxiety this Fall ...
Sorry I don't have much more to blog about, but like I said, it's pretty much status quo, with little little busy things to do.... A coach emailed Pat last week asking for additional information on him, and I've kept myself so busy with that paperwork. Like I said, it's all good! Pat's keeping very very busy and understanding the meaning of that dreaded four letter word we all dread - work! He was scheduled to work Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night this weekend. On Friday, he comes walking in the house about 6 ish. Honestly, you would have thought that kid just won the lottery, he comes running in the house, so excited... I said, Pat, why are you home? He said, Mom, they only needed one worker tonight; they told us to work it out who stays, and I told them I'm outta here, how cool is that? Simple pleasures, huh?
