Meanwhile on the college front...

....DS2 gets an email from his soon to be college saying they have received his criminal record check and everything looks good.

The only thing they have to wait for are his official high school transcripts after this semester, which will come in July.

But to hold his spot, he needs a deposit of $500, which will stay in his account and then be applied against his tuition come the end of August.

oh goodie. $500


so that had to be taken care of.
