yes, it is good that you are having lessons before hand. i really admire
you for this big undertaking. if i was married with childern, i would
never been able to cut the masters program, but i understand alot of
people who do. it will not be easy, but the sooner you start the better,
and yes you need to stay close to home, unless you have a great other-half
who will allow you to travel and possibly live away from home for a year .
good luck! you sound most positive and reasonable in your search.
this is coming from a single middle aged person who has never been mwc.
