Scholarships

My middle daughter is applying for scholarships for college. She is not having a good time.
Having to read all the instructions and follow them at the same time is not her idea of fun. Add to the good times the fact the deadlines are fast approaching and governmental forms need to be filled out.
Again, she is not having a good time.
Now, she hits me up with all this after I get home after a 12 hour day including Parent/Teacher conferences. My patience unnecessary frenetic deadlines is not strong anyway. Today the patience quotient is pretty low. As in zero.
Fiona is in her room weeping and filling out forms. I am in the living room waiting to see said forms and refraining from saying all the mean non parent of the year type things floating through my brain.
Eventually she will come out and I will be nicer.
We will get through this.
By God!
