Great News
 
Grades were public today. I finished Funeral Services school with a 4.0 Average. We finished the review for the national board. Last Saturday I took part one of my boards and passed with a 91%. Tomorrow (Wednesday) I go for the second part and I am completely done with school. My future is starting to shape up. I got a call from the school president offering me to teach the anatomy course starting in January, 8 hours a week. In the mean time, On Thursday I go for a second job interview at a local funeral home, minutes from me. He is aware I will teach and already called the school to get a recommendation and check on the teaching situation. Keep me in your thoughts tomorrow and Thursday. If this happen for me I will not be home much to sew, but I will not have a 9-5 schedule and when I am home I don't have to lock myself up to study. Great ending for a crazy year!

Best of luck to you in the future. Know you'll find time to sew when you can - now it'll be a time for relaxation and unwinding from the grind. Looking forward to hearing from you with more good news.

Congratulations, and good luck on the last part of your exam. So happy for you.

Maride, just curious, how long did you have to go to classes?
