This time of year is when the classes start at the local college.Keen to find a niche I enroled on jewellry making.Last year I did some classes so this week was my first this year.I am looking forward to the next nine weeks.
In addition I went to a one of art class today.Its run by Shell who also hold an exihibition yearly to encourage amateur talent.We had a marvelous teacher and I felt I gained so much.
Are any others enrolled in classes ?If so which are you taking.

Mountian Ask,
Those classes are so encouraging to me . I meet lots of people from all walks of life and enjoy them so . My husband who had two major surgerys last year and I was confinded to the house a lot caring for him , now that he is better , it gives me back my confidence to get going again.

Well, Stained glass sound exciting also Keep me posted on your art Class not that sound exciting also . I love water color painting . I will check my booklet for other ideas to share with you .

Anne,

Maybe you can pick a used computer someplace not an old one . We had one we just put up to be recycled out the parts . I keep my Gateway and hubby got a new Dell . I took word 1 & 2 and Excel and forgot most of the Excel . We take classes a the local extention college and they cost is small, I am still unable to get a senior discount . Writing classes are on my list also that are non credited also. That way I don't have to take the exams .

Just some thoughts to help .

Anne,
I understand . Eating and keep a roof over head is very inportant with the cost of gas and power going up . Or at least it is around here . Keep us posted

Long ago I taught adults dance for one of those classes. It was SO rewarding to see them come along and walk differently, with a grace that was new. I was so excited for them when they mastered a simple step it was like I was the one learning! It's a great thing to go and take those classes. I wish I had time but I have gone back for classes three times so far in my life when I had the time because I had a procedure done medically and could not work.
