Fast Semester

This Spring has been a really fast semester.  It feels like we just got started but instructors are already talking about getting everything ready for our final grades.  It has gone by way to fast. With the transfer to a new college I have met some new and wonderful friends and made even better friends with some old classmates. I will be no means say this has been an easy semester, but it has been a rewarding one. I do wish I could make myself do more of my reading and understand what I read much better, but my grades are still on the OK level.

Many people go through a mid-life crisis.  I have finally decided that that's what I am doing.  However instead of going out and changing spouses or getting a car that has no practical value to me, I am just going back to school. This started a few years ago and I am still trudging along.  I am happy to get my associates degree this May (completed last December) and am working on my bachelors degree now. I see my mid-life crisis as a reorganizing on my time. My life has gotten better for me and my girls, and things look good to stay this way (with a lot of help from heaven).  I will be starting nursing school this fall, so my post will still be spaced out, but homework does come first.

I know life may not look easy and sometimes there is nothing to keep positive about, unless you look really hard to find it. I have been looking in all the dark corners for years trying to find the thing that keeps me going. This year I might have found that very thing. It is nothing I can show anyone and I can't really describe it very well.  I just feel it in my soul and know that I can do this.

Happy Easter to everyone out there!  My God bless you and your family, and angels watch over you daily. I cherish my angels every day.
