Change in Plans

Poor Rachel. Some people seem to always get the bad luck!

She worked hard studying all week to take her ESL certification test tomorrow. This afternoon she pulled out the admission ticket and it had a date in AUGUST on it! So, it looks like she won't be taking the test tomorrow.

We know exactly how this mixup happened--she had tried to get approved for alternative testing, but was denied. However, the person who denied her signed her up for regular testing, as she had asked them to do. However, the lady signed her up for a different day--accidentally, we assume. Unfortunately, Rachel didn't notice the mistake until this afternoon, too late to do anything about it.

Rachel was pretty upset for a number of reasons, so we decided to go to the Lake to eat our Subway sandwiches. That was a pleasant way to get her mind off the abrupt change in plans. While at the lake Gary stole some ripe bluebonnet seed pods and removed the seeds to plant in his own garden.
