WOW...I should have waited to make my grand appearance till after I finished getting set up for the Fall Semester. Who knew so much needed to be done, and I thought I had planned well enough in advance to avoid such complications.

Several years ago my daughter apparently started calling my mother, her grandmother obviously, G- Ma. Or did my mom come up with that? I don't know. Anyhow, my daughter was begging to call grandma and I was trying to get her to wait because of the time difference. Since she wouldn't be quiet about it, I caved and called.
