Countdown

Well, the 23rd is quickly approaching and that means tons of homework, oodles of studying and the overwhelming feeling that I'm bettering myself. Its been funny trying to get all of my stuff accomplished like buying books, its been 11 years remember?! Luckily the ladies in the bookstore were helpful and didn't laugh that hard. But, you know I never would have been mature enough or been able to accept this responsibility in my 20's. The career path I've chosen isn't an easy one, especially since I want to focus in Oncology(cancer). I ran into an old friend at the mall right before Christmas who(coincidently) is the head of the Cancer Center at St. John's now and she offered her help if I needed it-Love Ya Deb! Aside from the nervousness of jumping into this, I am amazed at how God has just made the pieces fall into place. He pointed me to the school I was to attend by putting a free enrollement bug in my ear(and less tuition), put me in a Christian school with Biblical teachings, made me aware that I can get enough grant $ to cover most of the cost of school, put me at the mall when deb was there(I hadn't seen her in almost a decade) and has given me a peace about it all. Yes even with 5 kids, 6 of you count Rob, I feel good about it all. I know it will be tough, but my mom always said I was a glutton for punishment!
