I am a big fan of just planting the seed and letting it simmer. Then you can throw it in as an "Oh by the way..." LOL! It worked for me at least!

I always tell my patients to take each day in stride and always start your day on a positive note!! Looks like things did turn around though! I'm so glad to see that things are going better. I agree with what you said earlier though...you both are young and have so many options right now in front of you. Its best to do it now and worry about the loans later....i have them myself and I wouldnt trade that for my education and the job i have now.
Glad to hear you mom took the news well along with Rob!! I bet you were so nervous. I know i wouldve been.
Just on a side note...when i went on my trip this weekend we took this quiz and it was which Sex and the City girl are you...i was Carrie...i couldnt believe that*LOL* i was so sure i was charlotte...but i knew you'd appreciate that.
Anyway, here's to being positive and knowing that life is a rough path and believe you me...there have been times i have looked to the sky and said "what else???" (dont do that it pisses him off*LOL*). Just by looking at all the comments I quess you know that we are all here for ya! Keep us updated girl!

Thanks! How sweet!
I have to say, I always think I would be pegged as a Charlotte too! Or a Carrie Charlotte mix! thats so funny!
As far as Rob and everything- this is how I explained it to him... my total student loans is only 18k and I only have a few more car payments left so I told Rob to think of the loan the way I have- I figure I will start funneling the money I used to pay for my car towards payments and then once I get everything paid down I will go for another car. He is much more of a worrier than my so I think that helped a lot. My only worry is whether criminal justice is his field. I want to make sure he has actually chosen what he really really wants to do.
