Family Support
One of the things that can make all the difference in managing the whole back to school for grown ups thing is having strong family support.
I am sick and cranky and had a miserable no-sticker-for-me day … but calling home and talking to hubby helped bunches.
My mom and my brother and sister are also supportive… and bunches of my online friends… right now, Jax is putting up with me…but Steph and Lee and Lynn and Sue and … well, a whole bunch of others… would all be just as willing. They all of them believe in me, especially when it matters, i.e. when I do not believe in me.
I am fortunate that I have a number of profs that also believe in me - mostly at my old university, rather than where I am now.. but they are only an email away.
It is all so very important, and I’m fully aware that every time I succeed, it is not just me. I couldn’t do it without them.
Life is always better when you have people in your corner no matter what you’re doing.
Yes all my family are spread apart but we have to be thankful for the support. I am sending also online huggies..hope you receive them.
