It's official. DS5.5 (wow that was a quick .5) got permission to enter first grade early. That's one less thing to worry about!

The school board meeting was pretty interesting. 45 minutes to administriva, 10 minutes voting, 15 minutes mad parents/residents. I might go to the next one wink

Champagne, anyone? It's Thursday evening. In college, that was when the drinking began, so why not the virtual drinking! I'm buying the first round!

Congratulations, JBDad! Hopefully this will allow other GT kids early entry in your district. I have attended our school board meetings and they can be boring or very informative depending on what's going on in the district.

Already uncorked some home made wine... yum.

And this Saturday the boy and I are going to a day trip to Baltimore to see Body World 2. This week... everything's coming up Milhouse!

Congrats JBDad!! Yeah, those School Board meetings can be doozies. And you never know when I fight will break out. I go with a nice book to read, and "wake up" if/when things get interesting.
