Seems that this is a monumental week in our household. As Jana is packing to leave for her semester abroad, young Daniel made the big announcement at dinner tonight. Friends, it would appear I will spend the next four years continuing to book flights from the midwest and cheering on the Badgers.
Danny boy is going to Wisconsin in the fall.
The upside for me is no learning curve. I already know the ropes and maybe after 7 years I will finally have enough points on Midwest for a free flight.
UW Madison will continue to be the single largest holder of our family’s income for a little while longer.
Congrats to my boy and may you enjoy the rest of your senior year knowing where you will be in the fall.
Now about that empty nest…
