Backpack days

Interesting enough, I am not the only 62 year old person returning to college. There are a number of mothers I meet that are working on their second career. I am also working with a disabled student as her notetaker. I actually enjoy her class and feel like I am back in HighSchool, I just enjoy being around a whole new group of colorful people. The teacher, my age, is hilarious in class and that's good to see how she reaches out and challenges the kids,
Teresa talked me into taking the Honors course so I am in Computer class with kids that started teething on keyboards. It's just 2nd nature to them and I am walking around home, trying to think in digits.

Actually, I do enjoy the class although it's driving me crazy. If only Obama would have a plan to help seniors that should be retiring, return to school so we can get better jobs! Laurie Claire Wells
