I don't know why you think you aren't good at grammar - your posts are VERY well written and well punctuated, easy to read. Read what some other people post and you'll appreciate your own talents!
Thank you for posting this. It gives me a lot more hope now knowing that someone else in a similar position has achieved what I wish to achieve.
I have a meeting set up with the community college I hope to attend and hopefully they can point me in the steps I need to make it there.
As for my grammar, I was told a few years ago that it was just horrible and no one would take me seriously with the way that it was. It's something that has always stuck with me and since I've been trying to clean it up and get it to where it should be. Commas seem to always be my sticking point. I either add too many, not enough, or put them where they don't belong.
So I appreciate what you said about my grammar. It gives me more hope to know that I can do this.
Thank you.
