Bad night with computing. My laptop crashed while downloading latest iPhone update and will not restart. I switcheed to use my netbook that is to small to use, an Messenger is screwed up, but what else is new with Microsoft. Sign in information is never saved even though the option is checked, pictured do not show of contacts or self. A simple sink fix that could have been done in 30 min is now a renovation project that now hinges on a fricken faucet design that my mom will like even though she never cleans or cooks :urcrazy;  and meet a budget of less than $180 for a faucet. Just pick a good brand and get it so I can get it installed and done with it.

Sugarlump, quit starring at the cravings thread then  ;D :rofl;
Seriously though I hope you feel better soon with the  new meds.
 
YLGuy, I have no comment, I can't remember what I was like at 13 other than medical issues and moving.

I am exploding on the inside now and may boil over to the outside soon. Well there was a slight eruption with last minute news and no help, so I took a drive in the rain and became somewhat happy since the rain took the fun out somewhat.

I am loving my cherry M&M's - only eating a couple a day to make them last.  :thx;

Chris:
DISTINGUISHED SCHOLAR: Distinguished Scholars are recognized every spring based on their accumulated weighted GPA.  Students must have an accumulated weighted GPA of 3.85.

COLLEGIATE SCHOLAR: Students who have a 3.5 un-weighted GPA, at least an 88 percentile on standardized tests, and are enrolled in an
average of two honors or AP classes each year are recognized as Collegiate Scholars.

AP classes are college level courses.  When my daughter graduates high school she will have enough college credits that she will be entering college as a sophomore. This is awesome as the college she wants to attend is about $30,000 a year.
