Hi guys.
dd16 heard back from the Army possibly on Friday. Her maths and english isn't good enough to be able to join. I suspect it is partly to do with the way our state reports on standards. Apparently she could get a pass in TAFE to allow her in, but you can't do that here, so there is a problem. I am guessing her teachers will help her get a new goal. At the moment she is still studying for a hospitality certificate while at school and that is going well. I keep wondering if I have done something wrong, she keeps saying she is dumb, but I don't understand as I haven't had a child like this, the others are different, were always different to parent. She is very enjoyable though, probably because of it, I don't know.
I have let my tweezing go on my hair that gets waxed on my chin. I have a bigger problem than most, and this time was probably the time not to slack off. Can't wait to get there later in the week. Hopefully I just had a lot come up at once, I vaguely remember her saying that they all come up at different times. Hopefully it will be better the next time around.

Hi everyone,
That's too bad about your dd not being able to get into the army, BR. I don't think you've done anything wrong at all. She is perhaps a quite sensitive type of person and is feeling badly about this latest turn of events. Perhaps she will be able to regroup and come up with a new plan, one that will make her even happier/be a better fit in the end.
Hard to believe it's October 1st already. I know I won't get any thumbs up for my following statement.... ;D but I will say it anyway, Bring on June!!! ;D
It was very warm here yesterday....we all had shorts on and the windows open. The thermometer said 25* but it felt like 30*.... which is very warm for her for this time of year.
Hoping it lasts.... (but know it won't...oh well lol)

Wow Lynda. It is quite cold here, not good for the middle month in spring.

Your weather sure sounds appealing, Linda! It's been stormy and cold here, then a day of warmth, then rainy again.
I'm glad you're getting some bonus warm weather. ;D
Sorry to hear your dd can't join the Army yet, Br. Will she be able to get in later? Do they have to be 18 to join?

She wants to try to get a local job over Christmas and work out what to do from there.
