Dear LORD:
Please help us to find a school for Jeanae to attend. We are out of options here. Please show us another way. Amen!
MDDL:
Your MEQ today was the wonderful kiss and hug in Whole Foods. I love it when you love me!
I think the only way to proceed with finding a school for Jeanae to attend is figure out what schools we have access to and then systematically investigate them. You said that charter schools are not related to a given school district. I guess that has to be true since our kids went to Rivermill which is in Mebane. So there you have it. That means that we should be able to access charter schools in Durham, Orange, Wake and Guilford counties. Anything within a reasonable driving distance in other words.
Given that, we must have a few options. We have talked about Woods Charter School. There is also another one you mentioned that I can't think of the name right now. And we probably have other options we don't know of yet. We live reasonably close to North Wake County in driving distance. We should investigate that as well.
The way I feel about this is a bit overwhelmed. It would help if we had an idea of where she was going to go next year, but we don't. OK. Deal with it. Yes, it is our responsibility to send her to school. I really do not like the idea of Riverside. She does not want to go to Cresset, and I heartily agree with that idea, given the cost and our financial concerns and stresses. She did not get into DSA. Well, shit. OK, what do we do now? No idea, but there must be something.
In terms of a shared experience, it feels kind of like it did when we were looking for a house. We would find something that you would be very excited about. But I would look at it and it would be a stone's throw away from I40, with a huge electrical tower in the backyard, or some such thing. Or it would be too expensive. There was always something which prevented a given house from being the right house. Until we found the house on Shady Lawn. And that house was not that great to be honest. Between the remodel on the exterior, replacing basically all of the appliances in the house, especially HVAC, and then remodeling the downstairs, that was a pretty overwhelming problem in itself. But the process of finding the house was what I was overwhelmed by.
This is not as intense as that feeling, but it is pretty intense. Let's call it a 6. That was a 9. So a bit less.
I would like to find her something fairly soon. I don't want to have this hang fire all summer. Let me know what you think on that score.
Love,
Me
