I should be happy but...

You are right, you should be happy.

I think that starting something new and wondering of the "unknown" will drag you down.

I am just like you right now. I get so upset each day I check my mailbox and nothing, no letter.

You need to read Tweety's gratitude post and cheer up

Sometimes when something really great happens, something you've been waiting and working so hard for actually happens, nerves set in. It's the ol' "waiting for the other shoe to drop" feeling. The last post said exactly what I think is happening to you. Hold on, it may pass, maybe not tomorrow but it should. Good luck to you. And remember, you have worked really hard to get where you are, don't even entertain the idea of quitting. If you follow through with this you will never have to worry about good vs. bad schools for your child. Maybe you're a little burnt out and need some time to recharge. If that's it, take it, but keep going. Hugs!

Hi,

Does your school offer family housing? That may be an option for you. Also, if you are living on campus the nearby school for your daughter may not be that bad....You may also want to see if your school has any special programs for your daughter....

I know how you're feeling right now...I was recently accepted for Spring. I waited 2 years for this to happen. At first I was really excited, but now some of the fears and doubts are setting in and I'm jus in a little "funk".....However, I know everything will settle down once I actually get started in the program.......

Hang in there...you worked hard for this!

yes, they have family housing, but they also have a long waiting list. I am going to Memphis tommorrow and I'm visiting the school she is zoned for. Hopefully she will only have to go there for the second half of kindergarten. For first grade, I will have time to research some better schools and possibly get her enrolled in campus school.
