Recently, It really had been hitting me- the desire to go back to school, and my husband has been expressing a desire for a career change as well. I have always tried to be encouraging of it school for my husband. But going to some vocational school and write away owing 30000. and just not being sure he would pick something he’d really want to do, has been discouraging for us both. For me I had different commitments that I had to consider, like the time away from my kid. But, we have both found are selves suddenly, and out of our control- without this commitment. So it really, really hit me and I began to start the enrollment process at RCC. I also am very happy to say I have my husbands on board with me. We planned a evening we would go together and take our assessments. On getting there we realized Marcus wouldn’t need to take it and I -well I had taken it a couple of years ago and wasn’t able to move forward at that time, but the test was final! So with good time we had were able to get information and speak to a counselor in that evening. The counslor was really great. He was an older man and kinda spoke slow and I admit I was like oh no !! but then he ended explaining what we needed to do for our AA and for Transfer credit. All in away that we never understood it! Even Marcus with having attended RCC and I might add he has a nice little jump start with the credits he has, Im so jealous. anyway even he was greatful for his explanation. He made it seem abtainable or possible! yah it will take awhile but we could do it. It just so happens that this is just in the nick of time to get in rolled for fall classes. The down fall is we already have a trip on the 6th and 7th that we have to pull money aside for and Marcuss’ job has had a few slow days. So of coarse it has to happen at once. We are also filling paper work for some grants. I really want Gods hands to be on this.
I feel that he is and that he will provide. It would be so awsome for my husband and I to have what we need for us both to sign up for a class (or 2). It will be tough , but I am so tired of putting this off.
When I think back of what I have always wanted to be since I was 11 or 12 it would be an archeolgist! Now I understand the different areas of anthropology! I love the stuff and I always have. Hay! Jeff remember when I found that big bone on Tyler street on the way from your house to the Mall??? and the roads were all dug up. I wish I would have kept it, but we were all go to the mall:-):-)

Anyway, I am excited. I pray the Lord opens the door for us to further our education. An education that can lead us to were he whats us and for us to become happier , better equiped people when we get there.

God Bless!
And if someone did read this –please pray for us!!!
