Yesterday, i left Gracie with mom, and headed to Huntsville. I had to be advised by an English prof. since i am changing my major from Graphic Design/Advertising to an English Literature Major with a Minor in Secondary Education and another Minor in Art. She went through the list of classes i needed in order to graduate. a total of 87 hours ( that is 5 more semesters if i do 18 hours a semester). As she mentioned the large amount of hours i needed in Foreign Language, my level of stress quickly increased. As i was looking at my list of choices, and realized that i do not remember one bit of the four years of Spanish i took in high school, and then i saw ASL which turns out to be American Sign Language, and if you take it instead of Spanish, German, etc, there are less hours you have to take, (knocking me down to 84 hours). Plus she went on to explain that only 30 of the 84 are actually lecture/labs, the rest are student teaching and hands on classes. And then there is the fact that I only have to take two more classes to finish out my Art Minor. I quickly went from being really stressed to excited, this was becoming easier by the moment....but i should have known that it was to good to be true.
I went home and began looking at class times and options, i was limited to TT classes, due to the gas prices for one and for the fact that those are the only day's that mom can take off from work to watch Gracie. I became very anxious as i noticed most of the classes i needed were only limited to one seat left, or were already full. Unfortunately MWF classes were all wide open.
Once i worked out a schedule that was not at all what i had hopped for, i went to my personal account to submit my schedule to the university, i was greeted with a pop up window telling me that i was no longer a student at shsu, i had to re-apply. I immediately called the university and that little pop up window was true. I was told what web site i had to go to, to re-admit myself, i was then told that due to the fact that it won't be 'cleared' until the end of the term, along with incoming freshman, that i may not be able to register during open registration....which means i might have to wait (a virtue God did not bless me with).
I did the only thing i could do, i filled out the form so i could be re-admitted. However i need your prayers, due to the fact i may not get TT classes, and if i do it may not be any where close to the needed 18 hours. This may be something God wants me to do but i just do not want to take MWF classes, because that means, Gracie will have to go into a Day Care School, and that is something that i just am not ready for. I realize the situation could be a lot worse, but i can't help but hope a couple of people start dropping classes before August.

I'm sure you are tired of my comments, but... you know me. Another option to think about (for you and Omi)if you get in a bind is night classes. It won't help on the gas part, but there are lots of people who would enjoy loving on Gracie in the evening. And they are only once a week...
