Re: not coping

Understandable @outlander I guess it is hard working with your pop there.

Tomorrow night is D's official graduation dinner. Her last day of classes is today. Tomorrow morning they go dressed up then come home early and get ready for the night. D, S, hubby and myself all go.

Am so looking forward to it to see her all dressed up and getting her certificate. Also really anxious as I will be around lots of people and will have to talk to others.

Re: not coping

She's very excited @outlander

They have food trucks brought in to cater for the event and end up with fireworks at the end of the night. Wish I could post a photo of her all dressed up!!

She will be going straight to uni next year.
