College or NOT?
Which way to go? Back to college or work on my proofreading/copyediting business?
I received a call from the "Learn and Earn" office at LCC yesterday asking why I hadn't registered for spring term yet. She told me that I was eligible for up to $1400 in work hours to help me pay for school. So, I spent the last 24 hours re-evaluating, weighing, worrying, fussing, vacillating. And yes, praying.
It's very tempting...
After my husband built an all-nighter fire and closed down the stove, we made our way to bed. As I snuggled down and began to contemplate my choices, I just knew.
I didn't "hear the voice of God", I just knew.
My heart is in my home. This spring I am home. I have a garden to plant, chickens to raise, recipes to perfect and a business to build. I have a husband to love, children to encourage, friends to enjoy, and grandchildren to play with. I learned so much during fall term, then took a break winter term; now it's time to work on what I've learned. I will proofread manuscripts and make pies. I will call and email and write and build nesting boxes for my chickens. I will wash my grandson's face and study The Chicago Manual of Style.
It's so nice to be home!

It's great to read your blog and "catch up" on you. What a wonderful thing to hear your are continuing to listen to our Father, my dear sister.
Perhaps we could catch up in person sometime when I am down visiting my parents.
