Finally a post from the leah

Life has been pretty busy lately.  Heres some updates.

Brent 

He went back to Panera Bread part time at night so we could save money to come back to PA.  He works about 15-20 hours a week there, and full time at Macys everyday from 7-3:15.  So he is working super hard so we can save money. He is also applying to McDaniel College for the fall semester, so if it works out he will go there in the fall.  If not he will take more courses at a community college until he can transfer in.  He decided to write his admissions essay on how being married young will add diversity to the college, based on the things that he knows that traditional college students wouldn't.  Like how to be independent, do your own bills, work hard, and understand the concept of money.  I am excited to see how it will turn out.  Brent also pulled himself out of bed this morning at 3 am for Black Friday.

My McDaniel advisor and I have been corresponding back and forth on my re-admission into school.  When I went there in the Fall 07' semester things didn't go so well, I was trying to do to much at one time, and my grades reflected my neglect at school.  They said that if I can pull at least a 3.5 this semester at a community college, there are good odds to be being re-admitted.  If not I will just take classes at HACC until they let me back in.  I know its weird that I am so set on this school, but I just know its a great school.  The teachers there just expect more, they want you to think deeper, and they know when you write a paper in 5 minutes.  They want you to be diverse in the world, so you aren't just educated in your degree, but you are honestly EDUCATED. Really educated, in multicultural aspects, language, race, everything.  So I am completely ready to be back on track with school.  I am still working at the vets office and learning more things each day.  

Sam

Is still working her 2 jobs, and shopping for school stuff. I took her for her first Black Friday experience this morning.  She bought presents for her family and jeans for school, and some other cute stuff.  She is heading back home on the 15th and then goes to college in Idaho on January 3rd.  She is very excited.

Carly has discovered the Christmas tree, she thinks that I bought her a 6ft jungle gym.... Needless to say the bottom half of our tree has no decorations because they are disbursed throughout the house by her.  Behind every door is a Christmas bulb. And she discovered that she likes the way it sounds when you walk across a key board.  And unlike most cats, she comes with us on daily outings and when we go to pick up Brent at night from work, she always comes along.  She likes looking out the window.

And thats all today!

love you miss you peace angelia
