Wow! I just finished ordering my graduation announcements for college! OMG! Reality is really starting to sink in a little. Four years ago, I made this crazy decision to go back to college for my associates in General Studies (which I received in May of 2005)....but then had another crazy idea...to continue after receiving my associates to get my bachelors. And here I am, almost four years later, preparing for my college graduation!
I ordered my cap and gown about a week ago, but it didn't hit me until I saw the template for the announcement with my name and degree listed. :) I'm super excited!
This ceremony will be a bit odd though....I have been completing college via the online program all four years so I "know" a ton of students through emial communication, but they are scattered all over the world and will likely not be walking in the same ceremony as I. So, when I walk in this ceremony, I will know no one and no one will know me. But the exciting thing is we are all there for the same reason and therefore, we will be supportive regardless of not knowing each other.
The announcements will be mailed out as soon as I receive them! I just realized yesterday that graduation is only 47 or so days away! Geez....time is flying!
So, I am sitting here wondering.....will I be crazy again and continue for my Masters?? I'm thinking I want to so the payments on my student loans don't kick in next year....but I absolutely need a break....so this story may continue....but not until next year!

Nikki! Imagine you; married, the mother of a crazy kid AND now a college grad with a bachelor's degree!
Seriously, it just can't be. Cause if my niece is all that, then her aunt must be ancient!

Way to go Nikki.

Say hi to the family. Oh and watch out for those Rattlesnakes......they bite.
And oh yeah, did I tell you that we don't have them here????
Lovin you guys
Yes! Way to lure her daddy-o!
I am so amazed that you took on college with a child and a full time job. I am such an underachiever... :)I can barely keep up with the laundry and dishes and I don't have any sort of job or school! So anyway, that's awesome.
Aunt Sue - HI! Thank you for your kind thoughts! :) I love you to pieces too! XOXOXO.
Uncle Jim - Hi! We miss you all too! I think about you guys all the time! You don't have rattlesnakes there?? What do you have? :)
Sarah - YOU ARE NOT AN UNDERACHIEVER!!!!!!! Being a full time mom is extremely hard with two and now you have a third one coming. Don't ever beat yourself up like that to me again!! Or you are in trouble. :) I love you!!!
I love you all very much.
Hey, I just sent you a myspace comment. I will just re-say it here. You go into the "dashboard" on your blog. In there, you go to the layout, then on the right side, there's a place to add website links. You just have to copy/paste the web address from everyone's blog and put it there. I have no idea if that made sense... :)
No Rattlesnakes West of the Cascade Mountains. Good thing cause I hate em'.
What do we have here you ask?..........Rain! We do have rain. Lots of it.
But how else would it be so gloriously green, with billions of trees, and lakes, and streams full of trout and salmon and stuff.
