Having the summer of my life but my goals are suffering a bit at WA!
YES, I am having the summer of my life!
When I first became a member in early June I went hard and got my first website started because kids were in school. Since all three kids have been home since early July they just don't let me sit on the computer and focus on my studies here at WA. But the most important thing is that I am very happy now and enjoying every minute of the summer with them. My life is getting back on track and I have healed mentally, emotionally and physically from my toxic work environment that I left over year ago. I have done all types of activities with them and have had many little mini vacations with them, including Sherkston Shores (North/east corner of Lake Erie by the Canadian/USA border close to Niagara Falls). It is the first time in my parent life that I have been home with my family. It has been a blessing in disguise. Something terrible in life has turned into something beautiful.
I will be hitting the WAU courses and video's tutorials really hard in September. I am soooo looking forward to it!
Please let me know how my fellow WA followers are doing with your own progress? We all need to support and critique each other so that we all succeed in some way or form.
I really need to make this happen so that I can spend most of my time with the people I love and not stuck at work for 70 hours a week like I have done the last 18 years of my life (as you can see in my profile).
Thanks so much for reading and caring!

It's great that you are enjoying life, especially with your family, nothing is as important as them. I am progressing well and staying positive about my goals. Blessings.
Hi Des, here is thother way around, during the holiday I just don't have children, and could do a lot, about three days from now, the schools begin again and so does my regular work (daycare) so wen you get going I get stuck :0 a bit, greetings Loes
Thanks for the response, Loes! Everyone has different things going on in their lives which makes them unique but also similar at a the same time.
Our stories are similar, Des. Like you, I've been home with the kids this summer - only they are my beautiful grandchildren. They've been with us for about 2 years and it's the first time, ever, I've not had to worry about things. The three of us have had a BLAST and like you, I'll be starting back with WA full time in September. Can't wait - the girls are excited to get back to school and I'm excited to get back to WA University!
Thanks for the reassuring response, Cathy. It's so nice to know others are going through the same thing as I am right now.
Hey Des,
There is a time for everything and this is your family holiday time. Enjoy yourselves and come back refreshed.

Moving along, Des. Sometimes, not as fast as I like, but moving ahead. What's important, my friend, is that family time you are spending. Looks like fun and I'm sure the memories you are making with your wee ones will last a lifetime!
So true, Carla!
Those are the times you remember when you reflect back in your life, not you many hours you worked or how much money you made sacrificing everything else in you life.
