We are getting ready to travel to Walnut Ridge tomorrow. Janet and Jory are getting married on Saturday, and the rehearsal dinner is on Thursday so we are going a day early. I am glad that we get to spend the extra time in town, but it is so much harder to pack for that extra day. I always feel like I am forgetting something for Nathaniel. I really shouldn't worry about it because I can always pick up anything he needs. Nathaniel and I will be staying with Rob and Stacy, and Stefan is going to stay with Jory both nights. I am really looking forward to a few days away from M-town, but I always get stressed out when we take Nathaniel anywhere. It is really irrational because Nathaniel has always been a great traveler. I am just an uptight first mom that is afraid to get away from our daily schedule. I keep telling myself that I am not going to be the same way with my second child.
In other news we are trying to find a good online program so I can finish my degree. We found this great school in Nebraska and I sent all my stuff in to finish a liberal arts degree. We just figured it would be a degree, and if they transferred all my hours, then I could finish in a year. It turns out that they penalized me for having the associates degree, and only transferred 66 hours. We don't know why, but I am not going to spend another 2 years finishing a liberal arts degree. We are now in the process of changing the major to accounting. I guess I am really excited about taking a few classes again.
Stefan and I had a long discussion about how I am not motivated to finish any degree. It's true that having a degree is not my first priority, but he wants me to have something in case anything ever happens to him. I don't mind taking the classes since I am not working right now. I should have the time. The lack of motivation comment did bother me a little bit. I just didn't want to sink money into a degree that I may never use. I hope this accounting degree will work out so we can both be happy.
This post is random. I am still really new at putting my thoughts out in public. Please Pray for us as we are traveling.
