Tough decision

I have been debating for the past week whether or not to take a summer class since registration starts this week.  I had wanted to pick up a class so that I could finish up a little earlier.  After a lot of thinking I decided against it and instead plan to use the next 4 months to really focus on me and getting in shape.  If I had taken a class I was afraid I would always use the excuse that I have too much homework so I can't workout.  So, hopefully by having time to focus on me and really working this tool I will be able to stay on track.

Good decision Nicole!  Ya know those classes will always be available - but instilling your new good habits takes a LOT of work - concentrate on your body first and you'll have more energy later to do school!  Plus - taking classes in the summer really sucks - we only get 4 great months in Minnesota - take advantage of them instead of sitting in a classroom!  This is coming from someone with experience - I just graduated in December after 3 years of school. Take care!

Nikki I think that is a wonderful idea. Give some time back to yourself! I went to school very part time for 3 years and then had put it on hold, maybe forever, because I wanted to have a family. I believe God will show you the right path, I will continue to pray.

Thank you all for the encouragement that I am doing the right thing.  I have to learn to be patient and take my time with things and realize that since I am doing school part time that it will take longer.  I am hoping to be close to my goal by the time school starts in the fall and I am only taking two classes then so that I do not overwhelm myself.
