**For those uncertain to what a DYK thread is......**

DYK stands for Did You Know or Do You Know

It is simply a chit chat thread where every thought is written in sentences and each sentences starts with the initials DYK---it is fun, entertaining and a great way to meet the board members.

Ugh Cheryl, that is hard. Jordyn is feeling the same way about her AP World History class. She's got an 83 semester end grade in there. But she said only 2 kids in all the sophomore classes got A's in the class, so she's okay with it.

Her teacher did ask her last week after a test, she's just weird about tests. Some tests she'll sail through with like 32 out of 36 and then the curve, and others like last week, she ended up with 18 out of 32. Her saving grace is they also have a paper to write and she almost always gets scored 19 or 20 out of 20 on them.

Next year will be hard, I think she has 3 AP classes on her schedule... and she refused to hear my suggestion (and the counselor's suggestions that she look at parring down on one of those classes.)

I think we felt the same way last night Deanna! THe kids ran me ragged last night, and Jordyn slept a lot of it. DH stopped by the house around 8:45 after class to pick up a part to go finish a job. He looked at me laying in bed snuggling with Emma and asked what was wrong. I told him nothing, but the kids just wore me out!

Goodness, when they set their mind to ganging up on you, they really do it all out!!

I made Jordyn's chiro appt. for this afternoon and added my days off to the calendar for spring break.

I know its early, but i need to start calling around to find a bakery in the area that will make a Converse Shoe shaped cake for Jordyn's 16th birthday party. I am glad she's only doing a 5-6 girl sleep over for it and didn't want a big hoopla thing.
