Because of the post about putting off stuff I finally went and picked up my Associates Degree. I think I had been putting it off because I knew I would get upset and cry because my mom is not here to share this joy with me. She passed away in 2003. I am the first in our family to get any kind of degree. My three brothers own their own businesses, are doing great and have no wants for a degree. I on the other hand started college right after high school and instead of finishing I fell in love, got married, quit, raised my son and put my ex husband through school. I always knew I wanted to go back and always said I would as soon as I could. I finally got to after 25 years.
I just so wish my mother could have been here with me. She was so sad when I quit way back in 1981. I know she would have been so supportive and proud.
In the fall I start on my Bachelor degree and once again she will not be here to experience it with me and that saddens me, but I will trudge on hoping that somehow she knows. Anyway, I still miss my mom and wish she were here with me.
Those of you that have moms call them, tell them you love them, or give them a big hug. What I wouldn't do to do any of those one more time.
