Okay for all of us that are waiting, this is our official I'm waiting , checking the mail daily :imbar, going crazy , biting my nails , at the edge of my seat , can hardly concentrate on anything else :typing, Kingwood and Cyfair Spring 2009 awaiting thread:yeah:We still have a while to go before letters are going to be sent out but let's keep each other encouraged and cross our fingers for everyone that applies!

Hi TT- I'm doing ok. Busier than all get out with work, craft shows, pharm class, and of course nervousness for the next couple years. Yes, I like to worry in advance. How about you? It sounds like your really ready!

[TeeRN2Be]

Worry in advance, girl that's my specialty That's why I try to have a Plan A, B, C, D and E... I can't believe I put all my eggs in a basket this time around but I figured if it was for me, it was for me. I had CPR today and it was a fun class. I lucked out and someone told me about this class on Thursday. It was at West Houston Medical Center and it was only 4 of us in the class. I'm getting kind of anxious now. I have started getting my house in order, we are starting remodeling this coming week and plus I have to get it in order before the semester begins. My hand is itching to finish buying supplies but I will wait until after orientation. I also want to expand my home office and get a bigger desk that I can study at other than my student desk so that I can really spread out.

If you guys applied for financial aid check your accounts, because I turned my stuff in last Friday and it is already processed

You just reminded me- I have a test for Chemistry that I should be taking right now It's good that I have until Monday afternoon because I have so much to do right now.

Do you guys know that we have the longest North Harris/Lone Star thread on this board? I hope we keep ours going and not die down like the other threads did. We're here to support each other. I feel like we're family already and we haven't met Yes I am sappy and no I'm not working on it because that will always be me

My seven month old son starting clapping yesterday, I was crying something awful you would swear he's my first... I just love their milestones!

~Hugs you guys~:redpinkhe

[smilbig]

He's proud of you! So funny that you're doing the home improvement thing. I was painting like a mad woman all weekend! All the loose ends have to be tied up soon! Congrats on the milestone MOM!

[TeeRN2Be]

Aww, thanks Kim :redpinkhe I really appreciate it. I keep telling myself it's almost December and then on to January. Our first orientation is on Friday and I'm super excited about that. I'm trying to really enjoy my time with kids as much as I can now and spend time with hubby also. I'm going to let my daughters help paint their rooms also and I'm painting the kitchen, hall, and office by myself... I really like that alone time with me, the paint brush and my music... it's sooooo soothing to me.

[smilbig]

I painted with the girls this summer. Chocolate brown and light blue in one room and pink and brown (one wall with stripes - that was 12 hours of fun!) in the other. I LOVE painting walls. It is kind of nice to just blank out and focus on the job at hand - music too! I will be at the orientation on Friday (just in case ). Looking forward to meeting you guys!

[TeeRN2Be]

We're going with a neutral/chocolate/blue theme for the front of our home... that is soooo funny. We picked a berber carpet on Friday called Pecan Twist and it was swirls of blue/chocolate/ivory so that's what sparked the colors. I'm looking forward to meeting you guys too. We should pick somewhere to meet at at the school...

Speaking of home improvement, I'm not improving anything but for some reason one of my sons called me at work to ask for money to buy cleaning supplies for the house. That's weird but ok. He informed his sister that if she didn't clean up the living room which is where she spends most of her off time, that he was going to throw all of her clothes out that were laying everywhere. Last week he cleaned the master bathroom, tub and all. Maybe he's up to something? Or maybe he decided to give me a break. Now if the rest of the family would catch on, we'd be all set.

[TeeRN2Be]

:chuckle Maybe he just wants to give mom a break :chuckle

[rjsalimi]

Ok, let's go with that idea. .........somethings up though.

[TeeRN2Be]

One thing that I am thinking is when do we get our class schedule? Do they give it to us at orienation or at the Steps to success orientation. Does anybody know? What all do they go over in orientation?

Soso, Mody, somebody? TIA :redpinkhe

[rjsalimi]

I wouldn't be surprised if they give us the schedule on our first day of class. I think it may be Jan 14ish. Not sure.

Ok, so for every good thing that happens to me, something bad happens. I fractured my foot last week. A compression fracture. I'd been stumbling along since Thursday thinking it get better and it got worse to the point that I finally went to the doc today. Fracuted. No wonder it hurt so much. Anyway, you'll be able to spot me easily now. I'm the one with the giant boot.......and still stumbling along. Ok, it's time for something good to happen now!

I spoke to someone today from Cy-Fair about being an alternate..she told me I should make sure all of my vaccinations were up to date and as far as background checks and orientations, I do not need to do that until I receive a call...and if I don't hear from them after the first week of the smester thedn I can safewly assume that i will not be filling any spots...
