Enjoy!

Ditto the "great find" compliment. I'm thinking of starting a gratitude journal for the new year. Cookderosa and all of her help will be, I'm sure, a repeat entry.

Best news is that they are planning to "clean them up" a bit and also put out versions for Kindle next month! I just hope Saylor comes out with more courses with NCCRS approval next year. 3 already approved and more a-comin'!

Yes Irish, that's what took me there, I was looking for updates. Now that I know I can re-apply to TESC for free, if I can get a few really cheap upper level sciences I might go back and pick up the natural science degree this summer!
