Decision - Made

So. I was awarded my financial aide today. Very exciting. I was getting very nervous. There's been a rather large change in plans for me down here though and I'm super excited about it. You all know what my schedule looked like. It was 12 hours and crazy all over the place. WELL... It is now 6 hours and i'll be on campus from 9:30 - 12:15 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Here's why: I was looking over my degree plan given to me at Lamar U. I've seen my degree plan for UNT several times thanks to Shelly since we're on the same degree plan... First of all. I should be going into college algebra and LU is making me take another remedial math... Second - my degree plan for LU has intro to theater and philosophy of knowledge on it. Third - because I am being required to take a remedial math, I'm not allowed to take any science classes at all. I was rather bummed and kinda upset that I was so limited on class choices. SO... after texting with Shelly and talking with Thomas, he and I decided that going to half time, taking the two classes I know will transfer and working as much as possible. Thomas was very pleased with that decision because he knows it will be the most beneficial for the both of us for now. I'll be able to work as much as I can and I will be able to enjoy being here and seeing the sights. It's not ideal as I would like to move my way through school ASAP, but truthfully, this is the best choice for now. It's senseless to waist time and money on a class that won't transfer. I have to say, I'm very pleased and excited about this decision actually.

On another note - I think Grandpa is really enjoying and benefiting from Thomas being here. He feels better with a male around and Thomas is encouraging him to do his daily exercises.

I've always said God knows what's going on and he's in control. It's beginning to come forth. Praise the Lord.

Thanks to everyone for thoughts and prayers.
