Scared and Excited

I just signed up for school to become a medical assistant for now and hopefully onto a nurse. I am scared of the debt this will cause once I am done with school, But I am excited for the new challenge. We have so much going on in our lives right now. Jon and I talked it over and we knew this was a choice for our future. It will be tough but we will make it. We have made it this far. Although we will not have everything we want right now we will have each other and our kids.

I have wanted to be a nurse for as long as I can remember. When I went to school today to finish things up a lady there was very discouraging (which I found odd, I thought they were supposed to make you excited) She said I will not make much (She is wrong) I will always be on the go and on my feet. She asked what I was making at my old job and said " You know you will not make that being a nurse?" I know I may not become a millionaire but I will enjoy what I am doing and I will be happy with my life. I have been in collections for 16 years. I am good at it but I want a change, I want to help people, I want to make them smile and know things will be alright.

Onto other stressful things- We are getting married in 4 months and I feel so not ready. We have the place, date and time, colors, tux's and our grooms men and brides maids. But nothing more. I am not where I want to be weight wise. I put the planning off really until we knew more with others things that were going on. Now that we have that settled it is time to plan plan plan. We need food, tables, chairs, invitations, photographer and so much more. Although it is a stress I can not wait to become Mrs. Jonathan L Wootton! We both want so many things in life and I know we will get them together.
