  1. For the most part you do not have to have your book the first day. Some of my teachers go over the syllabus and get right to work; some give extra credit if you have your book on the first day. But overall, I think you will be o.k. on the first day if you do not. I just ordered my sons books from textbooks.com and they will buy them back at great prices. They also offer regular, 2nd day air and overnight shipping. I know that you will do great! Good Luck! Let me know if there is anything that I can do to help.
  2. Don't let it get you down. You are doing a great thing for you and your family. It just may take a little sacrifice to begin with, but you can do it!!
  3. I agree, I think that keeping those lines of communication open are huge. My son, though not perfect, always knows that he can come to me with anything. He is my world and he knows it. Also you have got to let them know early where you stand on subjects (sex before marriage, drugs, alcohol, etc) and then they have your voice playing in their subconscious. They also have to know that there are consequences for their actions and reactions. If you just always blow it off as hormones or just trying to fit in, it will come back around and bite you in the behind one day. Their little attitudes a
  4. I do not have the Pell Grant, but a friend of mine did. When she started in school, she had to just purchase her books and then later she received her Pell money. She then would just hang onto that to help her purchase her books and supplies for the next quarter.
  5. You should expect to spend, with that many classes, around $200 - $250 total including your Hope money. Also check the bulletin board in the student lounge. Sometimes other people will put their books from previous quarters on the board to sell. Just make sure that you are purchasing the correct books because last quarter they changed just about every book that we use.
  6. Yea, the school will reopen on Monday morning. What you need to do is be at the bookstore about 8am. Inside there they will have all of the books set up for each class. Make sure that you take your course numbers (SCT100) with you because that is the way that they have the books set up in there. It is really a pain every quarter trying to get your books on the first day of class. I really wish that they would come up with a better system. My son goes to West Georgia Tech. They go back next Wednesday and they can get their books on Monday. At least they are give a few days before this qu
  7. Actually, you may want to check with a tax advisor. I started a new job this Summer and I claim married, 0. There were 2 paychecks that they did not take out any federal income tax at all. I called our payroll service and they informed me that it had to do with the Obama tax relief plan. No matter how you filed, you would not have as much taken out as in the past. I had them tell me what my deduction would have been 2 years ago and I made them start taking out that amount. They told me that there are going to be a lot of surprised people out there this year when they have to actually pay f
  8. My whole family uses Dr.Terracina. He and his staff are very professional and very sweet.
  9. Just cuddle up with him tonight after the kids go to bed and tell him just how much you love him and how much you and the kids appreciate all that he does for you. Sometimes that is all it takes; just knowing that you are appreciated and loved by someone.
  10. Before my husband and I got married, we decided that if we ever had a child that I would stay home. After he was born (almost 21 years ago)I stayed home, ran a small home business and loved every minute of it. Yes, you have to change the way that you spend money, but that was just fine. I was a room mom when he was in elementary school and when he progressed into middle school, I became the president of the booster club. I truly would not have changed that for anything; those are days that you cannot get back. But, it is a trade off. If you do not have a degree (like I did not), coming b
  11. Where do I go to pick-up my Bama throw? Please give me an address and hours that you are there. Thanks!!
  12. Pro Designs Landscape in Hiram is great. The owners name is Daniel Graham. He can do anything including stone patios and fireplaces.
  13. I am so proud of Mark Ingram and happy for Bama!! Roll Tide baby!
  14. I was actually at the game and it was a great experience!! I was in the Verizon Club seats on the 45 yd line. I yelled so much that I was hoarse when I got home. I was so proud of my Bama boys!! Rooooollllll Tiiiiiidddeee!!!!
  15. From what I heard,the park is going in on a road around the corner, it is Bullock or Bullard Rd. Anyway, but there is supposedly an elementary school going in next to Scoggins.
  16. I have had a herniated disc in my back for about 2 1/2 years. I am at my wits end and I am tired of being in constant pain. I have already had 4 epidural's and the last one did absolutely nothing for me. Has anyone had disc surgery? Who did you use and were you happy? Did they just shave the disc down? I have got to make an appt. with a surgeon, but I am scared to death to have this done!! I really need help in getting the best doctor that is available to do this for me. Thanks in advance!!

  17. Not sure if you got my order for an Alabama throw, but I e-mailed you a week or so ago. Please confirm!!!
  18. What is the size of throws? Also do you have Alabama bedroom shoes?
  19. I did not know this young man, but my son told me about this incident last night. My heart just broke. Sitting here writing this I am tearing up. I tossed and turned all night thinking about my son and how fragile life is. This young man was taken way too soon and I know that he will be truly missed by his friends and family. To all of you that he was a part of your life, please accept my most heart-felt condolences. He is in God's arms now and is at complete and total peace. I can only hope that the friends and family will find that same type of peace. Know that you are being thought o
  20. I like Taylor Swift, I think she is very talented. With that said though, I do not think that she is at the level of winning Entertainer of the Year. I thought that had to do with record sales and ticket sales to concerts that they supposedly headline. She is just not quite there yet, but I did not want to see Kenny Chesney get it again. Brad Paisley, now there is an Entertainer of the Year.
  21. You can always rent some of the venues that we have out here that normally do weddings. I know that there are one or two in Hiram and there is one on Buchanan Hwy I think called Bullock Manor
  22. I used to work for Richard. He is the kindest, most caring person you would ever want to meet. I know Mrs. Bohannon will be greatly missed. Her children and grandchildren loved her so much. My prayers are with the whole family.
  23. You don't have to go to Cartersville. I live in south Paulding and I went to Carrollton. I got a job about 2 months ago after being on unemployment for 11 months. Thank you Jesus!! I would think though that all of the offices will be packed; I know that they were anytime that I had to go to Carrollton. Good luck in your search!
  24. It is spelled Phat Phil's. Actually we just ate there tonight. If you leave there hungry, there is something wrong with you! Family had prime rib, popcorn shrimp and a hamburger. Great food!!! Everything is homemade. Great service!
  25. Yea my husband, me and our son got hooked last season. Is rather rough though!! But you know Gemma isn't going to get even yet. This whole season is about the supremicists (sp??). So she has to wait a little while, but I think that when she does, oh My!!!
