As for me, I'm taking my daughter to a computer science AP test. I hope she passes as she will then get college credit for the course. These AP tests are $100 a pop, but much cheaper than taking the course in college. She already has some credit from previous courses she took last year, I forget which ones, maybe psychology and anthrology. I just worry about getting there on time. I always worry about being late to appts./arrival times.
She’s 7 going to be 8 in June. She’s got very intense interests, she’s in cheer, gymnastics and does a lot of art. Her gymnastics captain said she’s now good enough to enter competitions instead of being in class.

Oh it’s good your daughter get the AP classes. I wish I’d had more instructors advising me what to take. I had too many credits for high school and they told me to take collage classes my senior year. My parents never went to college so I signed up for cake decorating, science fiction literature classes and a couple more in that vain. It would have been so much more useful to take regular English class and science classes. I loved school it would not have been a hardship. My first two years of college I never had an advisor so I was still taking electives instead of getting the required classes out of the way. But oh well university was cheaper in those days. I paid my own way by working as a CNA graveyard.

Sleep is proving hard. It’s gotten so it’s above 70 degrees in here. Even with the AC set on 67 it’s only 70. I don’t sleep well at that temperature. This is only the beginning of May. It’s going to be a long summer. Spring is not as short as autumn. Winter is shorter too. Definitely climate changes.
