Today was my first day back to school.  Yes, you read that right.  I have returned to school.  I have moments that I wonder if my sanity is compromised.  But I'm actually really excited (and a bit overwhelmed).  Good times this year as I finish some pre-requisites (because I got my Bachelors Degree more than 10 years ago), and then I hope to start my Masters Degree in Social Work in the fall of 2017.  As such, there will be many crockpot and easy meals in the upcoming months.  But I'm determined to still cook and have healthy family dinners each night.   Here's to becoming a better me!
