And she's off...!

Amy officially moved into her dorm yesterday and she seemed quite happy to be back. Brian and I stayed around long enough to help her get most things unpacked. She'll have to figure out where it all goes, but the room actually looked pretty good by the time we left. Unfortunately, her allergies are getting the best of her and she's feeling pretty nasty. Hopefully with some meds and lots of kleenex she'll get things under control soon. Her boyfriend, Phil, helped us a bit but we had to glare at him when he mentioned that his dorm (which is right next door) has air conditioning. We were sweltering, so that comment didn't exactly make any bonus points for Phil!
The next 2 weeks will be RA (resident assistant) training for Amy. There could be some long hours ahead for her. I stressed how important it is to take care of her health, but she's at the mercy of the ones doing the training. I heard something about midnight tag. Hmmm. Meanwhile, Amy continues to wear her leg braces and she tucked the crutches into the corner of her tiny closet as a back-up if she has a rough day. Here's hoping she'll never need them!
It's been about 9 days since Laura went back to her campus. I have yet to hear her voice. She's also busy as an RA...one of the senior ones (this is her 3rd year to be one.) I suppose if she needed something we'd hear from her, so no news is good news, I guess. But dang, I miss that sweet voice!
