"Dating" a College Student

Whoo-hoo I'm officially going out with a college student. Ben registered for classes at MSSU yesterday and got his ID. Once he starts classes, they can certify this transfer credits and with his registered classes, he should be a junior by Spring 2010. He will also get to declare himself into the Nursing program. He has to wait till he is fully transferred into the University to enter the program. We got all the GI/VA information in and FASFA approved for back up. It is great, we finally can get all of this done. We have been trying to get the funds for the last 2 years to get him back into school so this a huge step for our whole family. Thanks to the Chapter 33 within the VA programs, we can do this. So cheers for my extra sexy hubby for serving in the Army for all those years and now being in school! It will be sheer torture while he goes to school and work, but it will be a great payoff for all of us in the end.

Hehe, he will have to be the one in Green and Gold for once....

New Age Group

Age group 35 - 44, that is. I went to the doctor for my annual visit and was told to get a mammogram. I thought that was for women in their 40s?? Nope, apparently, now doctors want women to get them when they turn 35. And I thought turning 35 was just going to get me cheaper car insurance. Regardless, if cancer was in my family or not, it is a must. When I went for my exam, I was told by the tech and nurse that most women avoid getting them done until they are in their 40s. Which was very believable since I looked like I was the youngest person in the waiting room. I guess, I may have my own personal reason to worry since I have already have had a scare of my own several years ago. But considering I was told then by the doctor that chances of a cyst would be any concern at such a young age are like winning the lottery. Well, like my little sister said, I should have bought a lottery ticket.

I think it is just being responsible to have something that just took 45 mins out of my day to get it done.
