Well, it's that time again. I'm on the search for a new school. I've applied at a few places that I know have good schools, but I thought I would post this here asking for help. Those of you who are from outside of the Montgomery/ Auburn area, are there any good schools in your area? For instance, I know there are some good schools outside of Birmingham - I just don't know where outside of Birmingham. I'm not making the mistake again of applying to a school unless I know something about it! So those of you who are elsewhere... help! Thanks! :-)

My little brother called last night to inform me I'm going to be an aunt! First Janice, now my sister-in-law. It's crazy! I'm excited for him and for his wife, but they totally didn't plan this one out. He leaves Friday for his six months overseas - Germany, not Iraq. (Thank goodness!) Anyway, does anyone have any suggestions for anything I should do for her over the next six months? This is a new one for me believe it or not. Care packages? Visits? Any ideas are welcome :-)
