Endoscopy yesterday. Ugh.

... Hermit, That was a nice deed you did, pulling the kids out of the snow. I saw your other post. Did it snow all day?
Exciting news in our family this week. DD is engaged. Her fiance is a very nice young man who even asked me for her hand in marriage. I think she is more excited than I am!
I tried to post to a thread about wedding costs from last summer, but after I checked the box that I knew it was an old thread I was told I couldn't post because it was old and it ate my post. Oh well.

I have them for a reason and I blanch every time I go in anticipation of bad news. It was not really a big deal this time. The prep liquid was not as bad as anticipated. It just smelled like latex gloves and the taste was not too awful. I started early as several here suggested and it went easy (but resisting solid food was anguish).Hope everything was fine. Why the ugh?
Very, very happy day. Received word that our grand son,who is graduating from IMSA , just received word that he has been granted a full boat "Stamps" Scholarship... tuition, room and board, books (and a computer), living expenses, and an opportunity to spend a paid overseas experience during summer break.
Our kids have two others in college now, at the same time, so this has been an incredible help to their plans for retirement. Grandson is very aware of the cost of college, and has worked hard to earn his way. Will graduate with a 3.9 avg out of 4, in addition to being a class officer, counselor and member of multiple school clubs. His current hope is for a Medical Degree, and possible future with Doctors Without Borders. (Fluent in three languages)

I started learning to ski a couple of months ago and today I went on my first blue runs. I'm pretty happy how well it went. I was lucky that I did a private lesson, otherwise I wouldn't have made nearly as much progress and probably would still be skiing green runs.
The only downside is the skiing season is almost over. I'm already looking forward to next year.
