In the whole scheme of things...


it doesn't matter. I tell myself that often, heck I tell people who are upset at what life has given them that day, this. Why don't I believe it? I do, I really do. I just am trying my hardest to make lemonade here folks. I'm tired of lemons, we've got lemon bars, lemon meringue, enough lemonade to feed an army. What I'm getting at? Hubby got his denial letter today from his second choice school. This doesn't change the fact he's still on the waiting list for his first choice, but it is a bit disheartening. I feel so badly. I am really not one to live with the what ifs, or the should have done this, could have done, etc. but this is a tough one on me.

I knew better, I really did. Hubby knew better but we waited until the last minute. Had he not waited he could have been in the Evening program, or at least that's what the letter stated. Ugh. It literally said, since your application date was later than the Alternative program deadline, blahblah... I knew we should have been more on top of it. We screwed up. This cost us at least a year. (unless miraculously he winds up off the waiting list.)

So we are better preparing this next fall. I have the deadlines in mind and we will meet them for sure this time, he's retaking his lsat in hopes for a better score, we made the late registration deadline for that but he has to go to Salem to do it. OH WELL! He's in. All the testing areas are filled in Seattle so what can ya do? We improvise. That's what we do. Well that's what we normally do, had we been thinking in this mode last year we probably wouldn't be sitting here in panic mode now. It's in the past right, what can ya do? I should rewind though. We missed the deadline for the June LSAT last year, so we had to settle for the late September one then wait for scores then apply. See how that wound up for us not applying sooner??? Like I said, we're on top of it this year! *crossfingers*
