OT, but wonderful news!

Congrats to you..I remember you sharing that fear at the support group.
I'm happy for you and your daughter.

That's awesome news, Karin!  I'm so happy for you and your family.  What a big relief for you all...  Sounds like this is working out great!  I hope it all works for your daughter to stay and attend the UW - those scholarships can make such a difference.  Take care...

Karin...

I will go back to Brisbane. I Adore the "lone Pine" koala sanctuary. So I ry to visit it when I can!

Surfers paradise is quite a draw as well! What a great area to live in.

That's great!  I remember reading a post from you a while back concerning this.  By the way, my daughter is in her 2nd year at UW and loves it.   It's a great school and a wonderful city in which to live.  Your daughter will have the time of her life.

PS.  You can see that my avatar is rather warped.  I just couldn't seem to make it work.  Not sure why.  Any suggestions?

Sheryl and everyone else, thank you so much for your kind words.
whenever we DO have to go back, I'll still keep coming to the WA board, that's for sure!


Sheryl, about your avatar: it is warped because your photo was less than 100 pixels wide, then oh.com stretched it.
Have a look at the avatar video on my profile, it will show you how to fix it.
