Lizards and Prayers Worked!

Thanks to all for your positive comments and well wishes! I got everything worked out, so I will start school full time on the 23rd! A friend of ours is a stay at home mom and will watch DS during class for next to nothing, and the best news...DH's best friend just gave us the money for me to get started! We don't even have to go to the bank this afternoon as planned. He said pay back anytime within the next couple of years!

That is fantastic! It is moments like that when we can realize there is still quite a bit of good in the world. Sounds like you guys have great friends that are very supportive and those last longer than any other kind. Congrats on school, it'll feel so much better too with you at a healthy weight!!! Rock it mama!

Awesome news!!  You must be so excited!!  Its great to have friends that will help when you need them.  Good luck!!

Great news, thanks for sharing!!  What will you be studying?

Thanks guys! This semester I will be finishing prerequisites so I can apply to the nursing program in the spring. Their program starts each fall, but there are many classes I can take out of sequence in the mean time.

That is great news,Shannon, and proves there are still good people in this world. Liz

What a wonderful profession!  We need more for sure!  Congrats to you.

Shannon, that is great!
So are you quitting your new job or taking classes after hours?  That would be alot to do with a family.
I'm glad it all worked out for you.

I'm not going to start the new job. I was supposed to start Tuesday. I was just going to take one or two classes at night or online, but they only accept applications to the nursing program in the spring. So I needed to go full time in order to qualify by then. Talked it over with DH and he said go for it! The sooner I go to school, the sooner I will be done. So I'm doing it!

Awesome news, babeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Lovely new avatar, I almost didn't recognize ya! You have the entire weekend to celebrate and feel good about this new chapter of your life.

What a nice friend! Heaven's help those who deserve, babeeeeeeee!
