Wishing I Was A Stay At Home Mom

Ok recently I have been thinking a lot about the possibility of not working. Although at this moment it seems very slim. I am currently working full time and trying to juggle the responsibilites of being a mother and housewife. I can say that it has been very difficult. My goal is to work at least another year and try to work part time so that I can transition to full time school. This however brings me to another dilema. How am I going to pay for my school? The employer that I work for now has a tuition reimbursent program where they will pay a certain amount for me to get a degree or will pay the full tuition if I get a degree that is healthcare related. This is great but what I don't understand is how can you possibly do both? It makes no sense to me. I really wish I can just quit but then it creates a problem for us financially. Is there really just a simple way for you to do something? It seems like there is always an obstacle. I need to stay positive and just hope that things will work out. :)

Nearing the End

Well I can almost say that I have made it through a semester. Yay!! I can say that my first semester at Triton College was good. I stuck through it and overall it was not that bad. I can say that there was a period when I felt overwhelmed a bit, but with the support of my husband I was able to get ahead. I hope to keep the same determination that I have had so that I can achieve my goal and obtain my degree. The only thing I can say about my experience with online classes is that you really don't get to interact as much with the students that are taking the same class. I envisioned it as being more involved with students and teacher. That is my only complaint but overall it was ok.
