  • I got my scholarship!

    Hey guys, guess what??? As the title line reads I did get the scholarship, hooray!

    I just found out and I wanted to come on here and let you guys know, that's 20,000 bucks that will effectively pay for my entire masters.

    Thank you guys so much for sending your positive vibes, thoughts, and prayers my way. I know that it really helped.

    I am so excited, they said that it was a very competative scholarship, they only gave out 5 and they interviewed over 20 equally qualified applicants.

    I was so worried last week and now I've got it so I don't have to worry about how to come up with tuition money for the next two years of study. Thank GOD!

    Hooray!!!

                  Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                  Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

                              Thanks guys, I am really excited to not have to worry about paying for school. God is totally taking care of me.

                              2big - you are so right, at moments through life we all forget the many blessings that we have and my life is pretty great right now. I have a wonderful little girl, an increadible apartment, a job I enjoy, a loving and supportive family, friends that I treasure, and now school completely paid for. What more could a girl ask for ... well maybe a cute boy to kiss every once in a while, lol, but I can wait on that one.
