11:11

11:11 am. For the last three days I have looked at the clock right when it says 11:11. Tuesday I was on my way to Nashville, TN to drop my nephew off at the airport. Yesterday I looked at the clock in my vehicle and today I see it on my computer monitor.

Personally, I feel it is a way my spirit guide is telling me I am going in the right direction in my life and that many great changes are going to be happening. This is why I believe this: For the last year I have been going through a lot both negative and positive. Last summer I my kids and I had to move in with my mom and step dad. I got on a list for housing which has not moved an inch because of the economy.

I finally gave in to moving away to finish college and mailed off my application three months ago. Last Friday I receive an unexpected email from the resident manager for the housing at the college I just transferred to. They have apartments that will be available soon and wanted to know what the earliest date I could move. At first I himhawed around about it. In my third email to her I just decided ok, I'll put a date.

Tuesday was the day I took my nephew to the airport so I couldn't read my emails. Wednesday morning I receive an email from the manager telling me ok, I'll see you on July 20th. Be here before noon.

I will be 3 hours away from my family and friends including two of my kids. I feel it is the right thing to do though. Especially since I have seen 11:11 on the clock. It is hard to explain that I am mostly excited about moving since I will be away from people I have been so close to and going to a place I have only visited twice.

One website I went to mentioned guardian spirits and 11:11. I have had friends tell me the last year to follow my spirit guide which I didn't completely understand. Now I feel I am on the same level. It will be interesting to see the new changes happening in my life in the next several months. It also leaves me curious if how much more I will see 11:11 on the clock.

College

My College Experience is about to change dramatically for me. I've really been waiting on this opportunity for sometime now. I am meeting it head on with mixed feelings. Mostly of excitement.

I am a 32 year old single mom of three getting ready to move 2 1/2 hours away from my family, including two of my kids. The oldest is heading to middle school and wants to stay "home" and the youngest has been spending a lot of time with his dad and his family for the last couple of months. I decided to keep it the way it is.

Besides I am only doing this for under one year. I have only two semesters to go and then I graduate.

And yes, I am excited. I have worked very hard for this and I am looking forward to walking across the stage to get my diploma and changing my tassel to the other side.

Being away from home will probably leave me homesick for awhile. Particularly my kids and my beloved boyfriend of almost two years (in a few days it will be). All of them will be visiting often so I know I will become accustomed to a schedule of visits.

For awhile I have wondered what it would be like to live on campus. I was kind of envious of friends who have lived on campus.

Now, it's my turn even though I am way past the average age of a college student living on campus.

Still, I am very excited.
