Sorry Been MIA - Good News!!

[Maro]

I am officially a COLLEGE STUDENT!!

I start this fall full time evenings. I will be going for my CNA cert first, get a job in the field, and then going for my Associates Degree as an RN.....

AND
We are getting our refi, so we can cut our mortgage payment in half, and be able to survive until the SSD comes through for Joe. He was denied again, so now it's time for the administrative law judge hearing. We went ahead and got a lawyer for that one.

Anyway....come this fall, I will be a busy busy person!

Good for you!!!

Wow, I am impressed! I'll tell you what - I am in the healthcare field (Mktg Mgr for a manufacturer), and in the five years I've been in that field I have gained a tremendous amount of respect for nurses. And quite frankly, I have lost some for doctors.
You won't make nearly what that profession is worth - not in money. But you will be rich in the service you provide as a caregiver, and in the rewarding job satisfaction you will have. My hat is off to you, young lady! Go get 'em!

[Maro]

Well thanks Olds....I can't wait for classes to start actually, kinda exciting going back to school at my age...lol

Don't wait until the back-to-school commercials start!

Maro - find out where the used text book store is and what books you need to buy!
The price of text books was stunning when I was is college and it has gotten worse!!
Some of my books were $80 each and that was 20 years ago.

Man I second that motion!!! Also you need to dig around the student community right away and see if you can locate copies of old tests given by your specific professors (they will be there somewhere)...
