    How about this --

    Now that I am taking courses, I'm excited to be getting great grades. The people in my support system play an important part in my getting tasks done on time and in my setting aside time to study. My husband, who is my rock, watches Matthew while I attend the live chats and finish up assignments. Robin, Matthew's godmother, takes him now and then for a night, so I have time to myself to unwind. My mom plays with Matthew during the daytime, so I am able to take much-needed naps. My family and friends support me by watching my son while I study or when I have to finish an important assignment. Some of them worry that I will get stressed out or that I won't have enough time for my family. I know I am okay and, with their love and support, can handle all my responsibilities with no problem. If I did not have family and friends to help, I know I could not achieve my goals.

    Now I have to do rewards system and conclusion with an explanation of when I will return to view my plan

    What about this paragraph? Where does it fit?

    It is necessary to plan ahead for any technical issue that may come up while pursuing my degree online. The problems that I foresee are; my son getting a hold of my computer, my computer will crash from contracting a virus, or I could lose an important document.

    Reward section --

    My reward system is something I have had to put a lot of thought into. For instance, I will reward myself with sushi if I pass such-and-such class. Upon completing my next semester of classes, I will reward myself with a spa day. To jump ahead some, when I graduate from college, I will reward myself by going to the beach for the weekend. When I get a job, I will reward myself with a car. To reward us for getting our new home, I will buy a pool.

    This is what I plan on doing to combat these issues, I will always put my computer out of my son's reach, I will make sure my computer is equipped with the latest virus software, and to always back up my assignment on disk or send my documents in an email to myself a paragraph is 3-5 sentences right

    I deleted a few phrases that said nothing, but didn't do much else. Most of it is yours.

    I worked with three heartless editors who ripped up my sentences before their companies published my writings. Been there, done that.

    One long article for the Chicago Historical Society about the Auditorium Building, three books on Texas history and one on Illinois history (mostly bought by schools for their state history curricula), and one short story for a autism magazine about an autistic young man. I have on the back burner (still thinking about and writing) a romance for older women and several children's books.
