And, any other grant or scholarship anyone wants to send my way. (and work 2 jobs, plus parent 4 kids, and I'm also doing another Bible study course in my spare time...)

And, I dunno that I'm doing so well. I'm giving very serious though to quitting. I can't keep this up for years and years, and it will take that long to get a degree. I'm working very hard right now to make some plans, figure out how I can get a degree and not miss an entire span of my life, and my kids' lives, in the process. Life is far too precious for me to spend it exhausted and burned out.
Don't quit. You are partly resposible for my decision to go back to school. There are people that have given me inspiration to go back, and you are one of them. If you can do it with four kids, surely, I can with one! When you complete your task, then those nay sayers that "dis" you will be proved wrong.

Thank you! You know, I do understand the hard work you have to put into it. I was telling my instructor that maybe I made a mistake with all the work I have been doing. Supporting a family on one income, finding the time to prepare for sermons, buying a house, preparing to move into that house with maintenance, ministering to poor people, and going to school, has kept me busy and tired; I sometimes want to quit, but there aree also times that I'm glad I made this decision to even try. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.
