Kind of long story, but we took an 11 yr. old boy to his game and stayed to watch. SO FUN!! Loved it. Pictures are to come. I may let Jared do that one too, just because he understands baseball better. Tues. I FINALLY got caught up on my house cleaning.
Wed. I got some cleaning and laundry done... yes, I have decided to divide my cleaning into days. I know it's June Cleaver, or whatever, but it works for me. Anyway~ I then went to lunch with a friend of mine. SO MUCH FUN!!! Love woman time!!! Yesterday, Thurs. was a bitter/sweet day ... again. Seem to be having a lot of those lately. Anyway~ in the morning I went to the temple with my grandparents and ... he's the other grandfather of a couple of my cousins.
FABULOUS!! Time there. We were celebrating the 59th wedding anniversary of my grandparents!! Amazing huh? Anyway~ when I got home is when the bitter started. So...
As you all know, I failed one class this last semester. So I'm one class away from getting my nursing degree. Well, part of the process of retaking a class, in this program, is writing a letter to an advancement and ... A & A committee. Forgot what the other "A" stands for. Anyway~ I wrote the letter and have been waiting for like 2 weeks to hear back from them. Yesterday was the day. The A & A committee decided to dismiss me from the program. This means that I will not be able to finish my degree at this college. I try to stay positive most of the time, ... and I'm doing a bit better now that I've slept on it... but I feel frustrated, discouraged, inadequate, and a whole lot of other feelings. Prayers are definitely welcomed at this point. We will hopefully start making some decisions today (ie., do I have enough fight in me to find a new program and ... I don't think I'd have to start ALL over again, but yeah... or do we call it quits here and if I need the degree then I can go back later). Thanks for all the love and support!!

Oh, Devin, that stinks. I'm so sorry! I will definitely keep you in my prayers.
That totally stinks but way to go for staying positive! Don't call it quits! You are so close! Keep going!
So so so sorry. All that work for 1 class. Can you fight and/ or appeal the decision? I think it's completely rotten to do that to you right before you graduate. Mom & I were saying we would boycott your college. We'll never go there!! ;) But seriously, I would be willing to write a letter......
a C in a class is not failing the class
Devin, I am sorry!!!!!! you may not know what is at the road ahead, I know that stinks... you worked hard it does not take away how hard you worked... just wait, something great will come out of it. You just can't see everything yet. I am sooo sorry!
I think you should fight it. FIGHT IT SO HARD! YOU CAN DO IT!
Another UGH! Bless your heart Devin. I am glad you have a great attitude. If there is anything we can do for you please let me know.
