    I finally did it!!

    I just sent in my registration for school. I haven't been to school in almost 10 years. I have been "thinking" about going back for several years now. And I finally just did it!
    I am taking an accounting class, even though I've been working in accounting for about 5 years now, LOL. The class begins January 5th, and the school is just down the street from my house.

    This is a pointless thread, but I just wanted to tell someone!!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Definite congrats on that one! So, will Bruce take a pic of your first day of school? Seriously! My mom still did that with my college courses, every year, picture on the first day, lol. It gives you something to look back on, and be really proud of too.

    LOL, yeah, I think I'll skip the picture. I already don't like having my picture taken, thank you.

    Yeah, that's sorta the reason I've been procrastinating on this whole issue to begin with. But I must suck it up and just do it! I'm hoping it will be fairly simple for me since I've been doing accounting.

    ETA: Thank you Georgia! We posted at the same time, and my computer messed up. Yes, I think I'll enjoy it now that I'm "older".

    Congratulations! And thanks for the inspiration. I've been hesitant to approach the subject of going back to school since I haven't concentrated on homework or teachers in DECADES! So many things I want to be...just like in high school! Some things never change!

    Thanks everyone! Yes, I think it will be easy. Especially since I have people here at work that can help me with things too.

    And I'm glad I could inspire someone else to get back on the school bus!
