Thanks, LSG. Once I started coming over here to this section, I lost track a little with the newcomers section but have been trying to keep up. I pray for you and all the others on here daily! While it's hard to be where we all are, I know we are better off for having found the support here rather than floundering alone like so many others are doing. How are you doing???
I appreciate the encouragement! I'm very excited about going back to school!
One bit of frustration last night: H saw me looking through my textbook for my class that starts next week and made a comment that maybe I should be looking to major in something else. Said that even the FT said it wasn't a very lucrative/promising career path...maybe as a "secondary income" but not as a primary. Then he went on to say that I should talk to someone more in depth about the prospects. Then added that, "he's OK with it, but need to know what's what..." Alls I could think was, "What the heck did he mean by all of that?!" I didn't even ask. I wasn't going to let him bait me or upset me. I'm too excited about what I'm doing. This morning I'm sitting here wondering what he meant by secondary income and he's ok with this or that BUT... Is he implying I need to make sure I have enough primary income for myself that he doesn't have to support me? He's OK with it??? Oh, I guess he is saying he is supposed to have final approval because he is the one working (and I'm not) and he's paying for it? I don't know. Yes, in a normal situation I would talk to my spouse about my future and my decisions, but as part of GAL, I am doing what I want to do!
Anyway, I'm going to try not to think about it too much. One foot in front of the other and I have time to sort out whether or not I want to major in something else. My passion is to help people in the very situations we all find ourselves in!
