What am I doing? I'm totally insane.
I keep moving forward with this plan, even though part of me is screaming that I'm a moron. But that's kind of how I've done everything in my life. I always figure, I'll just get it started, and I can always quit tomorrow if I want. But like the Red Queen says, today is never any other day...
I have registered as a student. I have laid out a tentative schedule of the prerequisites I need before the "intensive year" of the program starts. I have found an excellent special needs inclusion preschool, and worked out the total cost for both kids over the summer, and one kid half-time going into the school year. If I can't get a loan, we'll pull it out of the IRA under the non-penalizing heading of medical costs.
If all goes According To Plan, 3 years from now I will have my master's degree and my nurse practioner's license. WTF am I thinking?
