back to school for this 45 yr old....

I have been thinking of different careers to enter into, as I begin the second part of my life.  Many professions have come to mind...Hairdresser, Realtor, Paralegal, bartender.  All sound fun...BUT in all reality I need something that I can use my already earned college credits towards.  So I got my transcripts from when I attended Cypress College, to become a Court Reporter.  I realized that I am 3 classes short from becoming a Scopist.  It's something that can be done from home and I can keep my current and exciting Videographers job.  YAY for me.  This really got me excited and I have an appointment set up with my counselor, so I can enroll in the Jan/2011 semester.  I am a lil nervous about going back to college after so many years, but I really feel this is the message sent to me as to the next step I need to take.
I'm thankful that I have this opportunity and am so close to finishing.   I really think that whether it is 3, 4, 8 or 10 classes, I need to step up and meet this challenge.  Not easy for this 45 year old, but I'm doing it and it's going to be with a spring in my step and a smile on my face.  Why?  Because I can and I am fortunate.  God, family, friends and health...it's all you need.

faith, patience and hope...all will be good in the end.

P.S.  i miss my ms. b
