England bound?
I was giddy as a schoolgirl to receive this email early this morning:
Dear John,
At last I am very pleased to let you know that your application has been
successful and that we are happy to accept you for study at Leeds.
I am sorry for the delay which was on account of identifying the most
appropriate person to supervise your study. Your designated supervisor
is ************ (****************, and also a specialist in
your area).
I will send your papers to our Registry, who will write to you with the
University's formal offer in due course. Once you have accepted the
offer you will be sent other relevant information with regard to
accommodation, registration, etc. But if there's anything else you need
to check on you know where I am, so please get in touch.
With very best wishes, ********
I opened that and went bounding through the house, waking Margaret, and being tailed by Calvin, who was dragging his bed toward the bedroom (barking simultaneously). It's been a great day and we're thrilled to know we have a future (which Mag claims she never doubted, but I know I did). A weight has been lifted as these last several weeks (since the last application was submitted) have felt like what St. John of the Cross called, "The dark night of the soul" (especially since my first letter was a rejection).
Anywho, just thought I would share.

Dear ******,
Well done chap! Not only will you get a great education, but you'll have the opportunity develop a wonderfully pompous accent that will enhance your credibility more than yet another string of arbitrary letters at the end of your name.
Seriously though, congratulations.

Not one single button left on the shirts here in San Antonio! Very proud and very glad for all of you. Just to be in total empathy with Calvin, when I got home from work last night I grabbed my bed in my teeth and dragged it into the sunroom. The dentist should finish his reconstructive work on me in a couple of weeks!
Seriously, you've got very proud and happy parents on this end.
Our love to all three of you.

As we have said, "Wonderful!" We're not surprised in the least! I bet you will have some choosing to do before this is all over! We are already planning our first tour of the British Isles.Luv, Your tickled-to-death Suz
