Yay! I took it. I get my results in 2-4 weeks, and my diploma after that. I am so tired. After the test, Mom took me out to China King. She’d won a free meal, and as a stipulation, we had to watch a program on fire safety. I am terrified of house fires. And home invaders. And everything else. So on top of the test I’m now scared of house fires and realize that I won’t be able to afford the awesome fire prevention alarms the man is going to pitch to be tomorrow, for in my safety fervor I made an appointment for 11 AM. With Flylady, my house is clean enough, besides the fact that my entertainment center is strewn across the floor connected by a motley assortment of cords in a definitely unsafe manner. My fire alarms, which are only 55.8% accurate anyway, apparently, are sitting in the kitchen, disabled and waiting for new batteries. I’m paranoid. More than usual. Pray for me, that I get thru the night without being singed or losing my sanity. -Taria

P. S. A battery, even a dead one, will ignite steel wool if both contact points touch it. Get those loose batteries out of drawers and ziploc before disposing them!

    Now I’m scared! I didn’t know that about igniting the steel wool. I am pretty sure I don’t have steel wool anywhere but have TONS of batteries – both old and new. Thanks for the heads up.
    Glad the GED is behind you.
    Love you!
