He does want to give it a trial run and sit in on the classroom discussions and get to know the other students there -- that will happen in about 2 1/2 weeks. <BR/><BR/>I think what changed his mind was that BTBSA gave him a named scholarship, and the feedback from his friends.

How are you processing the info in the fat envelope?Heidicraftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16490630214131313709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6380434.post-25485989377724542372007-03-14T09:36:00.000-04:002007-03-14T09:36:00.000-04:00Wednesday: I'm sorry about my downer day, too!I c...Wednesday: I'm sorry about my downer day, too!<BR/><BR/>I couldn't sleep last night.
