Oh boy!

Well, I have been accepted. Oy!! Do I really want to do this????

(worried about  my negligible self discipline in relation to an online course of study)

Yay you! I'm sure you'll be BRILLIANT!

Alas, I am never Brilliant. Brilliantly Lazy perhaps, (in that I can find the most creative ways to be lazy and procrastinate and then manage to rationalize the whole thing.)

You'll do great hon. If it's something you want, you will acheive it!

I do have some mixed feelings about the want part but that is my lazy, cheapo self talking. I actually need to do it more than I want to. I have several coworkers who are getting on up there. One of them is 70 years old!! I can see myself in a few years, being expected to run up and down the halls or in the ER as though I were 25.

CONGRAT!!!! That is so exciting. : )

Not wanting to be standing around behind a cash register when I am OLDER was one of the factors (that and the crappy pay) why I decided to go back to school.

I know you will do great.

If you ever need any encouragement or a kick in the butt ;) ; ) in regards to your self discipline, I and I am sure everyone else will be there for you. : ) : )

Woo-hoo! Major congrats! And it's normal to be apprehensive about starting back to school. But trust me, it is, at least in some ways, like riding a bike - those old skills and methods do come back to you.

But, I'm lazy. Did I mention that? ;-)

Congratualtions! Although I never had a doubt about you being accepted. If I can ever be any help with finding information, just let me know!

Thank you!

It's always nice to have your own personal librarian at your disposal!! LOL!

Can I put that on my resume? "Personal Librarian to Nursing Researcher...."
