I've been kicking around going back this fall for my bachelor's. I have my Associates and tons of other schooling but I really want to go to Law School. Let's face it, if we don't go now, we will be that much older when we do graduate.

Just do it!

A family friend who helped my mom when my dad became bedridden got her GED at 60 something and was the oldest student at our local college...Spring Fling Queen at age 68! She is now in her mid to late 90's and the person I want to be like when I get old...and yes I do think 90+ finally qualifies as old!

Congratulations, good for you. My daughter went back about the same age and became an interpreter for the deaf..something that she had always wanted to do..not an easy task when there is a family for which to care........

You should be very proud of yourself.....the girls sure look as though they are soooooo proud of their mama.........
