Thought for the day

Sitting here, this morning, having my coffee and pondering life.  2017 is finally here and it could go either way LOL  Last year had lots of ups and downs, so I cannot be one of those people who said it was all bad.  Yes, things happened that I did not like, but I can't change that now.  I can only use those feelings to fuel goodness for this coming year.

Today, my biggest issue is grad school.  I am still on the fence about this.  I eventually want my Master's but do I want it right away?  Part of me is ready to get back into the work force and put my degree to use.  But, part of me really enjoys being a student and I would like to stay in the class room for awhile.  Also I do question if I'm ready to get back to work.  And by that I mean do I have the experience that I think is needed to be a social worker yet?  That I do not know.

And deadlines are coming up.  If I want to do UNCG's grad school, I have to make this decision in the next 24-48 hours because the application is due soon and I still have a lot to get done on that.  That would be a lot of pressure on myself, but you never know.  If I apply and don't get in this time, at least I can see what I need to do to get myself in one day.

And another thing I'm concerned with this is Michael.  He's been working very hard the past few years while I'm in school and I think it's his turn for something new.  Whether it's going back to school himself or looking for employment somewhere else, I feel that he should definitely have a say in what will make up our next few years.

Either way, I will graduate with my BSW this May and that is my most important accomplishment to achieve right now.  Time will tell with everything else.

Cheers
