I have gone back to college !!!!
after 30 years at my first attempt

to get a degree in criminal justice
with a minor in psychology
(and still work as a deputy full time)

I have enough credits from before
to be a junior
but …due to the change in major
I will be a sophomore taking a few classes at a time
till I graduate


pray for me
cause I sure will need it

You know what I love best about you Helen, you set goals that are not earth changing, but definitely sand-shifting that is for sure, in a positive way for you and all those that surround you.  Good for you!  I still am learning at my age, and hope I never stop!  You can do this - look how you came through the last time.

I'm impressed!
You are going to be a busy girl!
But I know you can handle it.
And I'm sure you will still find time to divert your attention to a poem now and then.
Cheering for you here!!!

You came through beautifully last time as I remember, so I'm sure you'll do the same this time. Good luck.
