We might be done sooner than we expected

Well, Tanner went to Blinn College yesterday to discover if taking CLEP exams would be counted as attending school before we reached residency status in Texas. We thought that it would be okay, but we knew it would be very important to double check since a mistake in that area would cost us over 75,000. So, he toddled on over to Blinn while I was teaching and talked with the administrative office of admissions. The long and shor of it is that they said as long as he doesn't take over 20 credits this year, it won't count as "going" to school. This might mean that we can take some of the iffy courses like Chemistry and Calculus before next January. This would speed our time up here incredibly and might mean we could indeed be done with his degree in 4 years.

I can't help feeling a little excited, but we've learned to be very cautious, so we are checking and re-checking and then before we apply for admission we're going to get the gaurantee in writing. So, if you would, if you think of it, if you have the time, please pray that we cover all the loop holes, cross all the t's and dot the i's so that this whole schooling process moves smoothly without any hiccups.
