So I'm in!!! Now all I have to do is PASS ALL THE CLASSES!!! Please keep your fingers crossed for SCHOLARSHIP MONEY!!! (oh yeah..please also keep your fingers crossed for plastics approval...including the MASTOPEXY Love yas!!

Congrats Kathy..........you go girl! Make us proud. Pam

CONGRATS!!! I knew you'd get in. You had a great letter, and you are very smart and great with people! You'll do great and pass all the classes with straight A's. I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed for your plastics approval. BTW...what insurance do you have? Tricia

Tricia, Youre always a ray of SUNSHINE Thanks for the vote of confidence, kiddo!! I'm gonna NEED IT!! I have bcbsil, but its a self funded thingy through our union..and theyve always been really good to us, so here's hoping I'm anxious to hear ANYTHING from them.....and will keep ya posted. Dont you have something coming up with Fenner?

Yes, I had lipo on my arms, and am hoping to have the brachioplasty done with my tummy tuck, as soon as I get down 25 more pounds. That's it, I can't believe I am almost at goal!!! He was so gentle and caring (I was awake for it, and it is gross). Tricia

Kathy WAY TO GO!!!! Now check into some local hospitals find out if they offer scholorships for nursing students... Especially teaching hospitals. Which I am sure you know this but since I work in Higher Education I tend to offer advice even though you probably already know to check that route LOL How exciting.... There are times I wish I had done nursing instead of computers but I am not going back to school again!!! Good luck!!! your going into a wonderful field... My mom is a retired nurse has her masters and was a OR nurse for 20 years.. I know she got a great deal of satisfaction in her career choice and misses it... She was offered the job of DON years ago and turned it down cause it would have taken her away from patients... Debby

Thanks, everyone I also just got the phone call that I got my CNA position!! Its not a lot of money, but a lot of experience...AND they'll pay my tuition. (ack..now to get the bucks for the books!) I'll be working 32 hours/week, midnights...in addition to going to school. Hm.. should be INTERESTING!! lol Thanks again for all the encouragement! Love, K
