I have just finished my investigation protocol and it is all pretty and ready to hand in tomorrow. All I have left to do is take my final tomorrow night in physiology. The best part about it is that I only need to get 65 point out of 105 to get a 4.0 in that class. BIG SIGH! After the last 4 months of pressure, I think I can pull that off.
My grades are posted for my other classes and here they are:
Algebra 4.0
Pharmacology 3.5
Human Growth and Development 3.5
So I don't have a 4.0 GPA anymore, I have a 3.87 and I am ok with it. I am proud of myself and I feel overwhelmed with so many emotions right now I can't even put them into words. I did it, I survived a 14 credit hour semester as a mother of 3 and 2 part time jobs. Yes my house is filthy and I have laundry downstairs that should have been folded and put away, yes I have 3 little girls who miss me terribly and husband who is about to go on strike, and yes I miss all of them just as much ~ even more, and yes I miss my family and friends.
So I am going to take my LAST final tomorrow and then I am going to go to the bar after and have a drink because I was invited to go with my lab group (who are all under the age of 24) ~ HA!
I feel at this moment I am right were I belong. Everything I worked so hard for and prayed for and pleaded for and cried over is all right here in front of me. If I have calculated my points correctly.....I have a ticket to nursing school. I remember looking at the 8 prerequisites saying, it's going to take FOREVER! Well forever was just a year and yes it was as bad as I thought it would be.
I am a strong person, but only because of God and the people who stand behind me to catch me when I fall and the ones who stand beside me holding my hand encouraging me to be who I was meant to be.
I DID IT!
Thank you for putting up with me!

Congrats Dana. We've missed you. Your grades are amazing in and of themselves, and even better in light of all that you've got on your plate.
(note that i am the first to congratulate you. everyone else's congratulations and applause should seem meaningless in light of mine)
Thanks Dave! I've missed you guys too!
Technically if you check facebook, your beautiful wife actually congratulated me this morning. Second to your wife...hee hee!
