Yay! I'm done with school!

Well, at least for the summer!
I graduated last Thursday night, with the highest honors. I'm so happy to be done! I'll be going on to a 4-year college in September, and finishing up there.
Best of all, my Mom told me that she was sure my Dad would have been so proud of me for doing as well as I have, so for graduation, she 'gave' me $1000 off of what I owe him. (I borrowed money from him when I was 21, and started paying it back a couple of years ago. He's dead, but I still needed to pay that money back to be at peace with myself, so I pay it to my Mom. I started with a balance of $5600, but now I'm down to $4100 after this.)
I'm just glad I can hang out here for the summer...
~Back with renewed determination-

Congrats, Lisa.
I know that's the best feeling in the world.

Happy graduation, Lisa. I know you and your family are so proud. As a working mom, wife, student, and, of course, debt support member you set a great example of what hard work and determination can accomplish.
Get some rest this summer. You have bigger and better things in front of you.

Thank you all! Even MORE good news...
The college GAVE me 2 scholarships: $3000 for being a Phi Theta Kappa member (2 year college honor society) and $3500 for my 'academic excellence'. These apparently are good for the 2 years that I'll be there.
Whooo-hoooo! Free money-the best kind!

Oh my gosh, that is awesome! You are living my dream, I want to go back to school so bad! good luck and congratulations!
