Well my sister is doing much better. She is out of critical care and at my brothers house. His wife is now caring for her until she is strong enough to care for herself. The family has realized someone will need to always check in with her when she goes back home.

Now for the rest of the story. I realized this week that no matter how much training and education you have there are still difficult situations that deem you useless and are out of your control . I am not a big fan of free writing and it is very difficult for me. I think I need to have a purpose for everything. Just like going to school there is a purpose for furthering my education. Sometimes I just have to accept that I can't fix everything.

I sometimes find it amusing to complete surveys on nothing at all that is of interest to me.  Do the surveys really have a purpose and where does all of the data go. Just a thought.

I can't believe I am halfway through this semester. I thought it would be more difficult. I'm not saying it is easy but when I think "university" I think of a more higher standard for everything. I guess I thought I could never do it and just can't believe I am actually attending a university. If someone would have told me years ago that I would be attending a university I would have thought them crazy and just think I am wanting to complete my Masters Degree. Well anyway. I am here and doing it. Go me!

  1. Sheila...of course you can do it and you belong here doing it. I, like you never thought I would be attending a university, but we we're here and because of our life experiences we are better prepared then we would have been had we tried to do this 25 years ago. I am glad to hear, you're talking masters degree :)

  2. WOOHOOO! We have daily struggles but I think some of us doubt ourselves or don't give enough credit where credit is due. You've made it this far, no stopping now.=]
