Back to School

Just attended my informational meeting at IWU to enroll for my BA. Seems pretty strange to contemplate going back to school at age 34. Evidently it seemed even stranger to my 9 year old when she found out. Her comment was, "going back to school at 34" as if it were actually 84! Children do say the darnedest things. I am very excited at the prospect of righting a wrong that I've felt so strongly about for so long. It finally occurred to me a few months ago when I told someone that having not gotten my four year degree was the biggest mistake of my life. Their response was, "Then why don't you rectify it?" I really didn't have a reason why I shouldn't so I started investigating the possibility. I've always told the kids that it wasn't a matter of if they were going to college it was where...so why not mom? IWU has a great program for working adults and hopefully this time two years from now I'll be blogging about my graduation with a BA in Business Management. That has such a nice ring to it!
