Re: Garden Club - May 2021

Today was a wonderful day.

 

She's still two weeks away from graduation, but DD#3 celebrated her Convocation this afternoon, and I got to be there.

 

She'll be graduating with a Bachelors of Science in Biology, with minors in Chemistry and Psychiatry.  Department Honors.  Academic Honors.  University Honors.  Cum Laude.   

 

(Someone more articulate can translate that for you...)

 

What I know is that the kid did good.

 

She starts a job in her chosen field later this month at a very impressive rate of pay for a 21 year old dingbat.  Er, umm... 21 year old young educated professional just out of University.

 

I'm terribly proud.

 

...and a bit jealous!

 

(And yes, she got her brains from her mother.  I'm aware!)

02/01/24 Fico 8: EX 757, EQ 803, TU 783.
Fico 9: EX 760 12/16/23, EQ 790 02/04/24, TU No idea.

Zero percent financing is where the devil lives...

Going between huge farms in the back of a pickup truck. Too scared to stand up at 10 years old, but not too scared to stick our heads out from behind the cab like dogs do out the window of cars. *Gulp*

 

(Kinda funny how when you get to be 17, it's all YEE-HAW YOLO and you wanna ride that pickup down 70 like it's a mechanical bull.)

( I see @UncleB restored the true glory of her achievement! )

 

NONE OF THAT surprises me one single bit,  @tcbofade . You're a good man, and obviously great father, and it comes across in text here very, very clearly!

 

You fly that flag down 70 from the back of your glorious pickup truck all month long! Tell everyone and anyone. I'm pretty sure she couldn't have done it without you. I know I couldn't have without my dad either.
