Hello Everyone! Thank you for thinking of me.
Yes, finals are here--bleh. I only have one more final and then summer! My summer will be busy, but not with the same kind of urgency this past semester (and school year) has had. The coursework at my new school is substantially more challenging than what I was doing last year, so I haven't had as much time to comment on the forum. I'm at school from before nine in the morning to after 8 at night, and I work both Saturday and Sunday now. Since I'm doing math, there are some days I don't have a computer with me, either. I still do check in with you all two or three times a week on my phone to see how everyone is doing, and I read Angie's blog post daily. I don't like commenting without thoroughly explaining my answer, and that always seems to take up a lot of time (especially if I'm trying to use my phone with it's tiny virtual buttons), so I haven't done it in a bit. I'm hoping to be able to do more of that after my finals are over (Tuesday!). There are so many new ladies here, I'm looking forward to getting to know you all better.
I talked with Tanya, and she is overseas visiting her family for the rest of May and possibly part of June. She is also very busy with her school work, but I know she misses being able to post and she appreciates your thoughts and well wishes. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that things will work out for her soon.
