Checking In And Sharing Some Victorian Images

It's been a bit, so I thought I'd better get a post in. Life has changed for me a lot this year and I'm trying to get myself used to the changes and it hasn't left much time for blogging. In fact would you believe that I haven't even read any blogs for 3 months! See, I didn't think you'd believe it, but it's true. I also haven't been thrifting or otherwise treasure hunting and I haven't even created anything new. Sad isn't it, but someday I know I'll get back to it all. In the meantime I thought I'd share with you some beautiful Victorian images, that you may save and use as you please. So enjoy and I will have to see what kind of blog fodder I can come up with until I get my creative self back into the swing of things.

I'm A College Student!

At 49 years old I'm going to be a student again! My life's course has taken a new path and going to school is part of the new path. I am going for my AAS in Medical Administration and will be taking online courses with Rasmussen College in Minnesota. I am so excited and look forward to learning and seeing what new experiences this will bring.

The only thing I dread is the math! Ugh! On my entrance tests I scored high in both the english and writing, but flunked out of the math. I could have colored all the little bubbles in a pretty little design and probably scored better that way! Needless to say I'll be taking the refresher--college way of saying "remedial"--math. Oh well I think I'll survive.

The degree will take about 18 months to complete and school starts this coming Monday. I'll be starting mid quarter, so I'll only have 5 weeks instead of the usual 11 to complete my first 2 courses--Refresher Math and Success Strategies. At least one of the two is an easy one. Then next quarter I'll bump it up to 3 courses per quarter, so I can graduate on time.

Guess I'd better get my pencils sharpened and notebooks ready--or nowadays I guess it would be fill up the printer with ink and paper and get my out MS Word and hit the books! Boy how things change!
