Amazing how two kids can share a womb, arrive at the exact same time and be so dang different.....this afternoon 'ring ring' cell phone, can't answer at that moment, ring ring desk phone....Chelsey's number. She's obviously got something going on, so I answer. "Mom....in a pitiful voice, what time will you be home?" Not sure sweetie, have a lot going on, what's up? Sillence....then in a sniffly voice she says she's failing Accounting. And that her GPA has fallen as well as her class rank. She said all this without taking a breath..... Ever read this about Colby? That would be a negatory. Turns out she missed two papers, and got zeros.....I came home and shes at the table and has completed all her homework for the next three weeks. Is double and triple checking it. She's OCD like me, so she puts it all in order, punches holes just so and checks it all again. I feel sorry for her, but even more so for the accounting teacher that Chelsey has requested an early morning tutoring session with first thing in the morning.... Again, same womb, born same time, and so different...night and day, salt and pepper, oil and vinegar....
Jeannine....you should write for the Rains County Leader....there's never been a person to replace Pauline....it's your calling, go for it!
