Sorry for stretching out the cliff hanger of Thursday’s post. I found out early Friday that all grades are in and I will be graduating! The relief of this is tempered by the latest news on Dre’s dad. In order to prevent the infection in his foot from spreading the decision has been made to amputate his big toe. This is what is known as a metatarsal amputation. While it is drastic, the other option are even more so. So we are hoping for the best. The operation is tentatively scheduled for Monday. That will be followed by healing time and physical therapy.
So this Thanksgiving will be especially eventful for the amount that (hopefully) we will have to give thanks for.

Things are very tense! I am one grade away from graduating and I do not know if that grade will be delivered in time. I just found out that I got an “A” in my photo course. Which rocks, and means that I got a 4.0 at the University of Chicago for Spring Quarter.
However, my Language in Culture grade is still not in. And if it does not get in, I do not graduate. I’m just a wee bit tense over this, as a lot is riding on that grade. Or rather the graduation. Which is riding on the grade. So I guess the first statement was right.
Things with Drea’s dad are also complex right now. To attempt to sum it up in a sentence or two would be a mistake. There is going to have to be surgery. We are waiting to learn how radical it needs to be.

Still waiting to see if my prof’s get the grades in. This is really frustrating.
Also we had to take Dre’s dad to the hospital for problems with his remaining foot. I’m not sure where this is going to go this time.
There is job news, but I’m not sharing until things are a bit more official. There’s still a number of contingencies at play.
