[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 315616, member: 3704"] It's Friday! Good Morning everyone. Marg, nothing beats a new pillow! I try to replace all of ours every couple of years. I'm hoping the new one improves the quality of your sleep. I can't wait to see the photo of the Melbourne Cup Day Hat. The entire process sounds like lots of fun. I previously lived in the state of Kentucky and horse racing is the name of the game there. Apart from the Kentucky Derby (and other big name races) lots of small, private steeplechases are held. That's when the party dresses, beautiful hats, and times of libation are enjoyed by all. Actually the horses are just the reason for the social event! It sounds like difficult child 3 is working hard at his studies. I know that you are all very encouraged by that. I'm so sorry about easy child 2/difficult child 2's job. We have little to no recourse here when jobs are lost - our state is an "employment at will" state. This means that employers don't even have to have a reason for letting a worker go. I'm glad you have the option to make the complaint. Good luck with that process! After days and days of heavy, heavy rain the sun finally showed itself here yesterday. It's a great mood lifter to finally get rid of the clouds! easy child scheduled the date of November 20th to defend his thesis. We all have our fingers crossed! difficult child has scheduled his classes for his next semester, and they are all in the afternoon. This was my suggestion as he tends to do poorly in his morning classes. He seems to be struggling somewhat with his Physics class. He is fiercely independent, and wants to do this all himself - so we really don't know what is going on. At this point, we're hoping he can at least pull off a "C".
