I have you beat Cate I started my college career is 1972. I finally have my AA, but I still need 44 credits for that elusive BA. I finally have most of my plan done, now to just do it.
Whats really sad is I was just wondering how I am going gto tell my Mother I am doing this. She seems to feel I owe her my time and energy to help her figure out where she wants to live. My 3 children are all having their own crisis right now and I am going through a late mid-life crisis.
We can all come up with a million excuses why we can't finish, the hard part is going on any way and "JUST DO IT" once it is done the problems will still be there, but we will feel better about ourselves and that will make the problems easier to cope with.
That is my veteran (Ha HA) 2c. as far as I know I am still one of only 3 in the oldie but goodie age range here.
