JUST JUMP!!!!

So I have been thinking about something for the past little while and totally made an out of character (for me) decision and JUST JUMPED!!! I am going back to SCHOOL!!! Crazy I know!! I barely have time for myself as it is with working full-time and having a husband and two kids to take care of!! Why on earth would I want to torture myself with more responsibility and work and hecticness (is that really a word?? don't know but I am using it!!!). Well I will tell you why!! I am working at a good job, but I don't love it, I get paid okay money, but not great, and I think that I should be waking up every morning and be excited about going to work and knowing that I am making the kind of money that I think my time is worth!!! So instead of just sitting back and wishing for it to happen (which is more in character for me) I am going to JUST JUMP. I just recently went to a seminar where this motivational speaker Johnna Johnson spoke, and she talked about JUST JUMPING, make a decision and go for it, make goals and pursue them. So that is what I have done, yesterday I went down to ISU for a "secret meeting", secret because I have not told my employer, and I spoke with a College of Nursing advisor. I was pre-med when I first went to college, but somehow got off track (mainly because of my laziness I think) and got a Bachelors of Science in Biology degree. Well come to find out, that is a "great degree to have if your going to go on to get a Masters in something" that is what I found out AFTER getting my degree (side note: if you are going to college it is good to speak with an education and career advisor PRIOR to graduating!!!!). Anyways, I am going to go and get a second Bachelors degree and this one is going to be in Nursing and I will be VERY employable when I am done and will be making double what I make now and working only three days a week!!!! I am totally stoked and excited and nervous and wanting to vomit and shaky and everything all at once!!! hahahahahhahahaha!! But mostly excited!! I can't wait to start this adventure, I have a couple prerequisite courses to take before I can actually apply to be admitted into the College of Nursing and then I have to take a test and a couple other things but I am on my way. My first class is next week on the same day as Brook's first day of Kindergarten, so Wednesday will be a BIG DAY!! Wish me luck as I JUMP off from my safe little boring shelf and delve into the unknown!!!
