Dawn!!!

Have been watching for you to post and have not seen you!! I hope all is well and you are just busy!! How did you do with your classes? I am getting nervous. My classes start on the 8th. Carmen

What kind of classes are you taking, Carmen? What school? My next semester starts on the 16th of Janaury. I take online classes from U. of Arkansas at Little Rock. Linda Vicory

Hi Linda, Even though I already did the college thing and just paid off my student loans, I have changed my mind and decided to start a new path. Nursing! I have just started at Ivy Tech and am taking random courses towards the degree program until I am in the program, which could be awhile! I haven't taken math in years and am going to try and do very well to be more competitive so I am in a math class that is making me nervous and I am also taking anatomy. I will be paying out of pocket because I have a degree already, so it may be very slow going! LOL I hope to do as well as you and Dawn! You two have set the bar so high!! Carmen

Nursing is awesome. I was a nursing major for a semester in college. I was flaky early on in college, switching majors, but I often wish I had stayed with that. I think you will do great. Adults who go back to school usually are serious and do well, from what I have seen. You will do great. Linda Vicory

Hey Carmen, I am here, just lurking!!!! I have been pretty down lately, not sure why? I finished my classes, both with an A, which was surprising! I start again on the 8th, again, English and Math, what was I thinking???? You will be fine, it is a tough decision to go back to school, but it will be so worth it! Good luck to you!!! I read the ONLY post too, it is so true, I am guilty. I am going to try to work on that though! I feel as if I have such a long way to go- hello, last year at this time was so much further, my mind is still playing tricks on me!!! Hope you and your family have a great new year, my son is at a friends and my hubby is working till 1am, so it is quiet and boring here! See ya soon, hugz Dawn

I am sorry to hear that you have been feeling down. I guess I should say join the club. I have been seeing several of us that have been struggling in the last few weeks. I am totally discussed with the stuff that I have tried in the last week. I ate Cheetoes one day and last night I had a slice of pizza and if that wasn't bad enough I had three bites of another slice. It was a low carb low fat pizza, nut still not what I feel good about. It sounds like you and Linda have been studying together and earning top notch grades!!! Way to go! I hope I can follow the example you both have set for me and earn some A's myself!! I said a prayer for you to feel happier so I hope it helps!!! Don't forget to celebrate the small battles along the way! You have come so far!!! Blessings, Carmen
