**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.

My brother texted, he has an interview for a staff position at an accounting firm tomorrow, as well as an internship interview next week. Please keep him in your thoughts, he so deserves this, he has worked his butt off, he is one section away from passing his cap licensing exam (he missed passing the audits section by 2 points last time and has to retake it this month) and he has 2 classes this semester and ine next semester and he'll finish his MBA. He has had a ton of interviews for internships in the last 2 years, but it's a rough market where he's at. I really hope he gets one of these two positions!!

Oh, and he's visiting us for 6 days at christmas! I am so excited!!

Dyk Madison has taken her PJ's off twice now. Sigh. Emma has been roving lately, and I know it's a phase, but I really don't need two of them doing it at the same time.

Don't have a clue where DH is right now, I should call him, but I don't feel like it. His dad called me earlier to check on us. He usually talks to DH at least a few rimes a week and claims he hasn't heard from him in quite some time... Hmmm.

And the volleyball team won, off to the quarter finals Friday night, and then if they won, the semis on Saturday, and tears from jordyn who has major conflicts on Saturday. Sigh. I told her tonight she's going to have to figure it out, but she may have to quit something soon if this keeps up.

Ugh. I stupidly told Jordyn that if needed, I would go get her from the volleyball game Friday night and bring her home. I thought the game was in San Antonio, about an hour and a half away. Nope, apparently its just over 3 hours away in Huntsville!!! She texted me that her coach said it was fine that i picked her up after the game Friday, even if they lose, but goodness gracious, I had no idea it was that far away. I don't know that I want to try and do a 6-7 hour drive Friday evening, most likely with the girls! sigh. I told her she needs to talk to her other coach tonight, I may not be able to do it after all. They are getting of school at 11 Friday to get ready to leave to make the 5:30 game. Jordyn just texted again and said I could sleep and she could drive home...

These are playoffs, and its at a University campus, that's the only reason, that and Texas is HUGE!

Crisis averted apparently, her coach told her she didn't have to cheer and Friday night's game (funny, she neglected to tell me that in her first text message, only that she could go home after the game Friday night). So after consulting with DH I had told her I couldn't go pick her up, she'd just have to cancel her stuff on Saturday. THEN she tells me she doesn't have to cheer Friday night, she'll tell her coach.

And for the record, scolding over text message losses all effectiveness!! And we will be having a talk about these committments she has, it is killing the both of us. Something has to give soon!
