lol, thanks all for the input, I know it sounds crazy but the truth is, I have a job thats basically recession proof, well Amercian recession anyway, and her job is costing her more than the monetary compensation could possibly offset if you get my drift, you know corporate rat race, etc., and as far GPA, sciences etc. its not a problem for her, she is an ace at school, and thanks for the great spouse kudos, however, I am not thaaat great cause her masters is actually in biz managment, not marketing, minor is marketing or something, excuse me, I am just a oilfield hammer swinger, lol! AAAAAnyway, her thinking is that she can spend some time in the field and eventually move into admin. type roles with her background? opinions appreciated, and thanks again!
