I've decided to further my education and have been attending classes at my local college for about two weeks now.
The thought of going back to school at my age (43) was a little scary. I pictured myself sitting in class amongst kids that are half my age. To my relief there are many people who are in the same age range as me.
I'm starting with all the basics first..Language skills (reading and writing), Social studies, Science, and Math.
The first day was not easy. You forget a lot in 25 years.
Now after a couple of weeks of knocking the cobwebs off the ole peanut, it's all coming back.
I'm actually enjoying it and look forward to class now...who'da thought?
The only thing is I have to leave my gun at home.
I'm so accustomed to having it with me that the first couple of days I headed into class with it on me. I had to go back and lock it in the truck. Now I just leave it at home. 
The moral of the story..It's never too late to learn. Oh, and don't take a gun into school.
. Except at UH there's not a strong police presence. I get updates about once every other month of an aggravated robbery on the outskirts and sometimes even ON campus in broad daylight.
