College... updated

I guess I didn't clarify in my post and I've gotten LOTS of questions in just a few minutes. I'm going to school online through Ashford University. I will be taking courses that are 5 weeks long and back to back. I have 45 days throughout the year where I can take breaks when I need them in between courses, plus regularly scheduled breaks.
I know it's going to be hard, but I know that I can do it. I have lots of family around that I can ask to take K for a few hours here and there when I need to work on a project. Plus K goes to bed at 7 every night and naps for 1.5 to 2 hours during the day, so I should have plenty of time to work on homework and reading.

Thanks to everyone for all the kind words and encouragement, I'm really excited!

College.

I am so incredibly excited to announce to the world that I am going back to school to finish my degree! After three years and two different schools back in '09 I dropped out and decided to give up on school. I was overwhelmed, depressed, and so defeated with the whole thing and I walked away. I don't regret it. I made the right choice for me at the time, even though it was the most difficult thing I'd ever done. Now, I'm at a completely different place in my life and I'm ready to go back and finish! I am so proud of myself and so happy with my decision. It all seems a bit surreal at times because it all happened so fast, I think poor S thought I'd lost my mind for a bit since I dropped it all on him one day a few weeks ago. Now I'm registered, accepted, and ready to start my first classes on the 28th! Yay me!
