I like it, Arie!

That's wonderful news, Dan! Today I put several of my mom's affairs in order.

Thank you. I think, as languages go, Spanish is pretty easy.

I'm hanging in there. Too busy to be emotional about everything. My class is starting soon. I've gotten a little bit of a jump on it. I'll do more before it officially starts.

Sorry I haven't contributed. When school is in session, I'm too busy to write, so it's only something I will do between semesters.

I like the challenge of a good exam, but I usually score pretty well.

We've had a change of plans on the car. He wants to get a secure credit card and start building some credit and then try in 6 months to get financing. I think that's a smart move. In other news, I'm so excited about my class this semester! I'm taking abnormal psych. I didn't realize what it was about when I signed up. I only signed up because I like the professor and hey, a psych credit is a psych credit. It's about all the things I deal with at work - ADHD, autism, bipolar disorder, etc. This will be fun!

I moved this thread over because a new semester started and I'm so excited. I signed up for Abnormal Psychology because I had previously taken a class by this professor and I really enjoyed it. I thought it was going to be about REALLY abnormal things like sociopaths and serial killers. lol Turns out, it's about the things I work with on a daily basis - ADHD, Bipolar disorder, Autism, etc. I'm so excited for this class!

That's not the first field I've heard you say that about, Elgee. I think you just love learning. I do, too.

I've been working on my Spanish for 281 days and I can actually express some thoughts now. I have a long way to go. But it's a great ap. It makes learning pretty easy.

Thank you. I'm just really busy. The car is fixed at least.

Car shopping was a complete disaster. Right off the bat we find something he absolutely loves. He couldn't get approved for financing. He was crushed. The next lot we went to had nothing that we even liked. The third lot (by now he is getting really tired and overheated and his autism-induced anger is taking over) tried to put him into this horrible Camry. The finance guy was all cheerful (Here you go! Your first car! Enjoy it, buddy!... stuff like that) which made him even more angry. What a huge waste of time! And of course, our stress levels are really high now. At least he's sleeping now. Good for you, James!

I've been learning Spanish on Duolingo for a while now.

Congrats, Dan!

Me, too. I have a busy weekend planned, but I'm glad it's finally here.
