I hate it when people write lame excuses for why they haven’t posted in ages. Nonetheless, I posting a lame mea culpa, mea culpa. Last week Haiti consumed me at work. And right now I am in New England, for C.’s boarding school interviews and trying not to be too rude to our hosts by blogging instead of socializing. I have several posts stacked up in my brain–including Wednesday’s Board of Ed budget hearing–and I hope to crank them out asap. Promise.

Are you going for Phillips Exeter? Or would you rather not say? Because as they say in my culture, you might be giving it an “eiyen horah.”
I’m starting to think, should I not tell people when they ask, where is she applying? College, for us. Mine did get into a boarding school but then changed her mind and chose to stay here. Things flipped. She really wanted it and once she got into the magnet, we thought, let’s do that for a year. Too late. She didn’t want to go anymore.
That was a mistake. But there was nothing I could do about it. Sigh.
Best of luck to C! We may do the boarding school thing for our kids when the time comes. I hate the idea of sending them away to school, but DH is dubious about Stanford EPGY’s Online High School. Fortunately our oldest is only 7 so we have a LONG time to hash it out
