Even with your two sons in ps and your daughter being pretty much independent, you are looking at a very delicate balance. You will still have a home to keep up, activities to go to, and life in general. When other students are studying, you mat be fixing a meal for the family or sitting at a music recital.

Here's is a mini example. My sister went to nursing school a few years ago. Her children went to ps (high school) and college. We took turns caring for dying family (you don't get to stop life during this time), and she helped with that also. I never called her because she was so tired she would fall asleep as she talked to you on the phone. She looked exhausted all the time, and her family put up with her moodiness from the stress.

Your time will be like this for the year. Your family will have to fill in for you often to help keep things in some semblance of balance. Please think this through carefully. It may be a great opportunity, you know how your family will work the best.

God bless!
