Hope everyone is doing well. My daughter loves A school and doing doing great. Getting ready to ship her personal items tomorrow. I found out the US postal services cannot give me a military discount due to her address. However, I'm loving the daily communication:)

Ellie- Welcome- it is a very good group!
Sorry I haven't been on for a few days. I made it through another week at work! This is the middle of our 'season' when all the 'older' people come from up north and have to be seen by their cardiologists in Florida, so they can find out if their hearts are gonna hold out till they make back home to see their other heart doctor! It'll slow down around May.
My husband and I got to hang out at Islands of Adventure yesterday with my sister from Virginia. It was a great day! Her daughter had a gymnastics meet in Orlando, and placed very well on Friday.
