Thomas the Train

We have tried so hard to keep Rem away from Thomas the Train stuff since the Thomas trains are more expensive then toy cars. Lately, he has been liking the one train that he does have. So I decided I should put some Thomas episodes on our DVR so Rem could watch them every now and then. Boy, was I wrong! Now Rem will hand us the remote and say "train". I think he is addicted!

Thoughts about school...

I was going to start school again this semester, but financial aid took too long to go through so I either have to wait until next semester or just figure something else out.

I haven't written much about my school plans on my blog. I just didn't want to get all excited if things didn't work out. It looks like it will whatever I choose. Here are my options:

I'd like to do the Radiology program at WSU. It will take 3 years to finish because I need to do some prerequisites and then apply to the program in January 2010. When I am done with the program the pay range is $40,000 - 50,000 a year. Sounds nice, doesn't it? Oh and also, I will do the program at home! Major plus. Once I get more into the program, I will be doing hands on training at a local hospital; hopefully the one just a mile from my home.

The only problem if I run into with the Radiology program is that it will take 3 years. What if I get pregnant between then and now? It may take even longer since most of you know I don't have the easiest pregnancies ever.

I do have a plan B. I've thought about going back to school to be a Medical Assistant. That will take me about 7-12 months to finish. The pay will be around $20,000- 30,000. I know quite a bit less, but less schooling. I'd also probably be done by the time I would get pregant again. The only problem is that I'd have to drive to campus in AF which is 40 minutes away and figure out daycare for Remington.

I'd love to get other peoples thoughts and feelings on this. Its so hard to plan school around life.
