    Joshua Jefferson has committed to Iowa State

    IIRC, and that ain't sayin' much, there were 4 different versions. (Won't be offended if I'm corrected. Maybe it was only two..{shrug}) Wish I still had one or two.

    Financial Aid Advice

    All good, everyone! I appreciate the insights and ideas! On the thought of trade school, whenever I talk to my students, I always say something like "whether your next plan is college, a trade school, military, or a job. ..." I work hard to encourage them to have a plan and make their life...

    Financial Aid Advice

    Oh, thank you SO much. (And a serious, heart-felt thank you to everyone!) We have orientation the second week of June. I'm looking forward to a small trip and seeing the campus. Anxious to talk with financial aid when we're there. We completed FAFSA in early January. Still haven't heard...

    Financial Aid Advice

    Out of state tuition is ouch, out of curiosity which school if you don’t mind disclosing, also congrats to him! Not at all! He was accepted to CU-Bolder but that was low on his last. (Phew - we were quoted $64k - yikes!) Wisconsin was his #1, with ISU as a fall-back. Got into WI-Madison and is...

    Financial Aid Advice

    My oldest is setting off for college this fall after taking a gap year. He's going out of state as well. To a Big10 School. Forgive me, I failed him. (To be fair, he does cheer fo the Good Guys, when he chooses to watch. Doesn't really follow much sports ...yet.) All that aside, I haven't had...

    Suggestions for Falling/Staying Asleep!!

    For sure. I hate it when they start "jiggling" on their own while I'm watching TV or not even in bed yet late in the evening. Signs for a long night. Sigh.

    Suggestions for Falling/Staying Asleep!!

    Welcome to Oldvile. Population: Us. I struggle with restless limbs - primarily legs. Finally found an Rx that seems to help, but I still have nights that are full of interrupted sleep. If it's bad, consider seeing a sleep center or specialist. Yet, I still have nights that I wake up in "the...

    Dumbest thing you dealt with today?

    "I didn't do it 'cause I didn't think it was graded." Well, not exactly today but I get the same sentiment almost daily. And, why wouldn't you think a 3+ page essay over what we've spent the last three weeks reading wouldn't be graded? Sigh.

    Where are they now? Coaching staffs of the past 20 years

    If I remember correctly, which isn’t saying much, it was an ugly situation. The LE firing was handled poorly, to say the least. I’ve never been a BVD fan by any means and I think the job, at that time, wasn’t attractive. Morgan applied and seemed a safe higher that would clean up the image of...

    Worst Movies Ever

    Valerian and the whatever I don’t care those two “actors “ couldn’t act into a paper bag much less out of it. I struggled with hs chemistry and they had f’n none. Great ideas but executed worse than the Iowa offense. holy sh$$ was that a bad movie.
