After over 2 strenous years of retooling and retraining my body (mentally & physically), I received the green light for 10 more hours per week! Up to 30 hours and the countdown for 40 hours begins next year. I earned the right to get back into the rat race of the human work force again. Hoping to finish off this bad dream and bring closure finally to my life once & for all. I would say that 90% of my peers gave me no chance of combating towards a normal work life. I proved them wrong. I caught the flu bug this week along w/my wife (sucks big time on the holiday and shopping season) – Been cold here in CA but the aura of goodness shines brightly from my body!

I have been working hard and need to enjoy some down time. Tommorrow evening I will be going to my neices high school graduation party and I hope I set an example for her that it is never to late to further your education. I hop she does not wait till she is 50 like I did to go back to school. Thanks everyone for all the encouraging words.

Hi everyone it has been a while since I posted. I am still in school and I have 3 and 1/2 months to go. I will go on my externship in the first part of Sept. I am still maintaining my 4.0. My birthday was really hard Iwas so depressed I could not concentrate on my test and made a 78. I studied really hard on the other tests and brought it back up to a 97. We have one test a week in each module. They count 1/3 of your grade. I took myself off of the antidepressant pills and my teacher said that was the problem when you are depressed you cannot concentrate. It even effected my blood pressure. I am back on zoloft and taking a low dose blood pressure medicine. It has been 6 months since my husband passed away I did not think I would still be depressed so I quit taking the zoloft. My Dr. said I need to take at least for a year after. I have still been reading some of the inf. on the forums about once a week. Thanks for listening.

Anybody that would like to view my powerpoint I can forward it to you in an email just let me know your email in a private message. I could not figure out how to post it on the web. I am very computer illiterate before school I had worked in a bakery and we only got on the web to check the ad and I would order from the warehouse. I can do spreadsheets and that is about it but I am learning. My husband was the computer whiz.If anybody can send me a private message telling me how to do I would appreciate it. Thanks

I will see if I can figure out how to down load my power point. If not maybe you can walk me through it since you are so well on the computer. I went from working in a bakery to taking care of my husband to going to school. Before about all I knew how to do on the computer was spread sheets and email but I am learning. When the instructor asked my weakness I told her I am stupid on the computer. She told me not to call myself that because I have never been taught.
