Hope you have a great time. my daughter is in Austraila on winter break and we will pick her up friday so she can start her next semester. School is so stressful. Both my kids are going through it ( after working for three years) and I give them a lot of support that they seem to appreciate. I feel like I'm a coach- I say- "yah yah you can do it ! I'm so proud of you! I knew you'd figure it out!"( professors they don't like) They have a long way to go . They will need a Masters',minimum.
I am traveling myself in a couple of weeks. My husband and I are going to Morocco. My idea. I want an "adventure". Better bring my berka! Seriously, I have quite a trip planned. This is the first trip that I have designed and it isn't your usual lay on the beach and drink pina col-adas, no, we will be roughing it most of the time. Most of the time a hole in the ground will be our toilet- and no central heat- I had to get five inoculations.

I maintained over the holidays. I tried not to get uptight about the extra food but it was pretty hard and I didn't get to enjoy the celebration as much, plus, none of my kids or relatives were here. Oh well.

oh- also i wanted to tell you I love the way you have done your journal. I hope to one day be able to personalize everything i do on the pc- but I guess i am a "newbie"

Oh what is a "night gig"?
