Almost there...

5 days of class

1 math test

1 take home final

3 finals

And then...I get a piece of paper that says I have accomplished something!  Not the last piece of paper I hope to get, but still...an important step on this journey to improve my life and my family's lives.

When I started my college journey, I never thought it would take this long to get here.  Of course, I also thought I would be working on a social work degree, not accounting.  That was 14 years ago.  And that's okay.  Life changes, we change.  Oh, how I have changed...I am not even sure I would recognize the person I was back then if I saw me on the street.  And that's a good thing.

One thing I know for sure as I cross this hurdle and get ready for the next set of them...every day I am made more aware of all that I do NOT know.  Also a good thing.

Next Wednesday, I have big plans.  I will shoo the three little kids off to school.  I will then climb into my bed and sleep until they come home.  That will be a wonderfully marvelous day!
