Hello Sparrow!
Hi Meg,
I jsut got on the computer and saw you were here today. I was reminded of you today when a sparrow came down and sat on a branch near me as I drank coffee on my deck. I was sitting feeling like so much on my shoulders and along came a sparrow sitting with me. I liked that. Made me feel I am not alone.
I am so glad that your life is not so internalized and you can share. Lifting a lot off the shoulders.
When I look back at bf's and I think what my life could have been with them, I realize if things did not move forward, we were drowning in hopeless emotions with no direction. I am glad for the oppertunities I had over the next 30 years.
Even when I went to college at 49, I the kids were great. So many personalities and they took in a ol' grandma, retired police chief like me. I was so anxious at first going back to school, and then a huge door opened. The kids and I had happy hearts, anxiety over test, and laughs and cries. College is a wonderful time at any age.
I did take some online classes to ease the load. I could sit in PJ;s and middle of the night if I was awake to work on the work.
You have a few weeks to work on reducing the anxiety with a whole world of help.
Why not call the disabilities office on Monday and ask for an appointment. I found great help there to advise me what I needed to do for documentation of my problems I faced, and they helped me with a great woman on campus that worked with gals like us.
Oh she was a gem Meg. She was so helpful and caring for me. She even shared a story of how she was driving down a street and a car pulled out in front of her. She hit the gas instead of the brakes and flew through the lobby of a huge bank wondow, the old architecture with marble, sky high ceilings. When she stopped she was OK, but later on the news that night they showed the front of the bank, with a huge sign, coming soon "drive up service"!
Well, we are having a late supper so I better get fryng the chicken,
Hugs sweetie,
