Going back to college in your earlier 30's gives you an entire different outlook. I mean it's like I know a secret the others don't know; it's very interesting. It seems I'm no longer afraid to participate in class as I've now spoken up in both classes; this is something I would have never done before. Something that hasn't changed is I do get the nervous feeling in my belly when they talk about test or quizes....oooohhh I don't like those.
Other than class there's not much going on here. We'll have our first football game this Sat so I'll go to the Coach's talk show on Thursday night, at the University Club, with friends then hang out on campus with friends prior to game time Saturday. Oh, I get student tickets which I still pay for but at a lower rate. :) I love football!!!!
Talked with the X today for a little while and that went well. He's proud of me for going back to school and thinks it'll be a good focus point. It's good that we have past the shock point of our separation/break-up and can have a normal conversation without tears. It's nice to be able to share thoughts on day to day activity in his or my life and laugh with him.
So that's all for today in my small Mississippi college town.

Fresh Start
I have finally started a blog, mostly as away to stay in touch with friends and as a journal for myself. Maybe one day I'll look back at this time in my life and be able to say look how far I've come. Currently, it sort of feels like I went from the top to the bottom of my life.
I've moved back to my hometown in Mississippi from a very happening Texas city plus ending a 6 year relationship. After two weeks of being a complete wreck I seem to be on my feet. Enrolled back into college for focus and as a way to keep my mind busy and I'm currently looking for a job which is not going so well. The job market is just terrible, well...... maybe it's also because I'm used to earning a great salary and here it's $10 an hour at best which for me is depressing. I'm sure it will work out but man this has been an eye opening experience.
So my gals from Texas, no recipes to share currently, as there has been no cooking from me. Maybe it'll come back with time. I get to attend my first college game in at least 3 years if not more so that is exciting news.
