Mail

I must admit that I usually don't like to get the mail- my kids do- but there isn't usually anything good in it. I get ads and bills, so its not usually an event. Except for yesterday~

This very large and stiff envelope showed up on my doorstep. As soon as I saw the return address my hands almost started to shake! I have never been so excited to open up the mail before~ if I have I certainly don't remember when! The contents of the envelope equaled 2 years of hard work and endless hours.

I am so excited! its not just a diploma its a DEGREE! I am now the proud owner of an Associates degree. Getting the actual piece of paper makes it so much more real than just knowing that I had earned it. I can go through the actual ceremony if I want to in May, though I have not made up my mind about it yet. But for now its made me love MAIL! (of course that may change tomorrow)

  3. yey! congratulations! Ü

    yeah. . . my whole thing is pretty stupid. it's no longer a 'degree' it's now a 'pre-major' which is totally stupid. i'll have to take a few more classes to get an associates in biology, but I want to get my bachelor's anyway. i just wanted a piece of paper that says i'm half way there!
    (sorry for replying here instead of facebook - work won't let me access such a wonderful website of funness. =P )

  5. Hey, my friend has a great pattern and I just got a sewing machine - early mother's day from Jared and Phred :). I need little girls, would you mind volunteering yours? I need chest measurements and height from shoulder to mid-calf and I will make them a very cute summer surprise!
