It has been too long

and we have been busy. The quick update:

Over Labor Day weekend, we went to the beach, Myrtle Beach that is. It was hot (95F), humid and sunny, just like it is suppose to be this time of the year. C was with us, but A had school things to do, so she stayed home. We only went for two nights and came home on Sunday because C had some homework to do and the Condo we rented did not have high speed Internet. C also forgot her charger for the computer so had little battery left to do anything.

It seems that C has a small bit of blond in her. We left Friday for the beach, we got about an hour from Durham and C announces that she has left her keys back in the dorm room. No real problem, security or her roomies will let her in. As we get further into the trip to Myrtle Beach, C announces that she does not have her cell phone, and probably left it next to her keys in Durham. No problem, we loan her K's phone so she can enjoy a little freedom from us but still be in contact. During the weekend, C accidentally locks the keys in the Van, but no problem as we had the other set with us, in K's possession, about 100 yards from where C parked the van.

As we get back to the house first, and then back to Durham, we empty the van of all things C, and cannot find her cell phone. It is about 8:00PM when C gets into her room, finds her keys, but cannot locate the cell phone. At about 10PM, I get a call from C on HER phone. She says she found it but, giggling would not tell us where. Finally, earlier today, she said she had it with her all the time, but did not know it. It was in her purse.

Somebody may need a smaller purse.

So it seems that C really likes her new school. Yes the classes are harder, but she is adapting well to the pace and requirements.

A is adapting to the university life again. She is rushing a sorority, so we will see how far that goes. I hope she likes it, if she chooses that direction. A is also involved with Carolina Fever, the UNC student fan club charged with distributing the student athletic tickets fairly; the Water Polo Club, is a committee member for the Dance Marathon; job shadows; and is involved in other things that I cannot remember.

K and I miss having either of them around, but we get to see A about once per week as she comes home to "Job Shadow" a pharmacist near our house. She seems to like it.
