god bless scholarships


i've had a windfall of good karma towards me lately. i'm hoping it keeps up, so i'm continuing to send out good energy to the world!

t and i handle our money, in what some people may say, in a strange way. we do not have a joint account...we pay equally for everything, approximately. for instance, we both pay the mortgage equally, he pays the bills and i buy groceries. this all works out quite well for us, even though, in theory, he makes a LOT more than i do.

however, this predicament, put me in a little bit of a pickle for when school starts. where on earth, was i going to come up with an extra $2,000 smackers every semester to go to school? it had me a little perplexed, but i just figured that everything would work out the way it was supposed to. i thought about financial aid, but then negated that idea, when i was told that we had to claim our taxes, which we file together. i'm sure there would be people much more needy "looking" than myself in those circumstances.

then, a couple weeks ago, i started getting emails from the head of the department where i'm getting my degree.

lo and behold, three weeks later, my school is paid for. it's amazing, i cannot even believe it. and if anything, let me know, if i had ANY doubt about what i was doing....that i am headed in the right direction!
