I have a little over 24 hours to finish putting together my portfolio or I will not graduate at the end of the month. Yesterday, I was feeling really good about my time line, but then I spent 4 hours at Staples only to return with no prints (their machines don't like my standard PDF files *the kind they ask for*). I will find out this morning if that has been resolved. In the meantime, I still have a ton of work to do tying up the loose ends. Please, pray for me laidies. I am going to need more energy than coffee can provide.

Honey, you hang in there, believe in yourself and know you can do it. I have watched my daughter do the same thing for the last 4 years as she has worked full time as an LPN snd gone to college part to full time to become an RN and raised a family. It is all so worth it in the end. She will graduate in May. It is not always easy and sometimes you wonder how you will get everything done that needs to be done. But, you will do it I promise!!! You just find the energy and the will to do it, and you will have so much to be proud of!! Hang in there!
Hugs MJ

Mary Jane is right! You will accomplish this, just hang in there and don't freak out. Walk outside for few minutes, clear your head and get back in the saddle. I KNOW you can do it!!!

I made it! Thanks, girls! I turned in my portfolio at noon, fell asleep on the bus home, and then crashed again as soon as I got in the door. Now there are just a few odds and ends to tie up over the next three weeks and I'm done!

I don't think the fact that I'm done has really sunk in yet. I think getting my little girls line up and running on etsy and getting a job that will support my family is going to be what really makes me feel like I've accomplished something.
As for going to Montana, I had planned to go home for my aunts art fair in July, but don't know if I can afford it this year. If nothing else, it will be next year.
