Dinah -
I don't usually have much to add to your perceptive posts, but I must wrestle this branch away with which you are beating yourself!!
Consider: the woman who has had so much personal loss this past year; the physical stresses you are under; the medication difficulties you're in the midst of; more puppy health concerns...How about: giving yourself a big break? Instead of setting bigger and better goals for yourself (more education! more productivity at work!), how about taking more basic care of Dinah? So you feel better about how you feel physically? I don't personally think that you have cut yourself any slack in the past six months. And *Hate* is not a word I would like any of my friends use to describe themselves. It's particularly worrisome to see you apply it to yourself.
Please, Dinah. Take it easy - the education will be there when you are ready for it. If you're anxious about filling in the application paperwork, then perhaps waiting a bit longer would be better for you?
