Today, Katie came out fighting the tears...seems in math class they had a sub. The sub said, oh I recognize most of you, lets see we have 20 jrs, 19 sophmores, OH LOOK WE HAVE ONE FRESHMEN!!!! (she is in Algebra 2, which for a freshman, you have to pass with a A or a B in Geometry, in the 8th grade, she also got high school credit for it). Katie started to cringe in her seat, everyone was trying to figure out who is the freshman. She was almost in the clear, BUT NO, THE SUB DECIDES TO APPROACH HER AND SAY " I DON'T RECONGNIZE YOU? ARE YOU THE FRESHMAN?" Of course everyone looks at her.
She's worried they will do something to her. Dad has told her horror stories about what they do to freshman. I said did anyone treat you differently? She said except for saying " you're only a freshman?", no. I said then don't cry be proud.
The week went really smoothly, I will keep Steph, until I get the approve or the disapproval. I have filed all the paperwork. I always worry someone is using my id and claiming to be me, but except for a very recent "california" stop ticket(my first, I almost made it 20 years, without a ticket, I was like a week short)I've never even made it into the court room for jury duty.
Steph is fitting in really well, and I'm enjoying spending time with her and I get to see Lisa and crew a lot more often. Oh and Lisa turned 40 on 9-9:).
And for me, I have realized, I'm waiting around more, which turns out to be good! I finally took Katie up on reading the TWILIGHT SERIES. I just finished Twilight, I loved it. Just starting New Moon. I'm now excited to see the Twilight movie this winter, which was her reason for trying to get me to read, since we rarely go to the movies.
