    I Did It !!!!!!!

    YIPPPPEEEE !!!

    I did it! Today - I did my thesis defense in front of a room full of Ph.D's, and they accepted it! So now, a little tweeking, a few minor corrections, & I will graduate with my MA degree in May - I may be getting old, but it's good to know my brain still works!

    Excellent! Congratulations! I actually went to all my mother's classes with her when she went for her Master's degree, so I joke that I had my Master's before I hit Kindergarten! Mom got her Masters when I was 4.

    Cyber-Sibes,

    CONGRATULATIONS!!! It's such a relieft to know we haven't pickled ALL our brain cells through alcohol, isn't it! That's wonderful. I always wondered if I could ever go back to school and get a degree. I figured at MY age, by the time I finished, I'd forget why I went to school or what kinda degree I earned!!!

    Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever. 12/02
    Mollie Rose, you were there for me through good times and in bad, from the beginning.Your passing will leave a hole in my heart.We will be together "One Fine Day". 1994-2009
    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"

    DO NOT BUY WHILE SHELTER ANIMALS DIE!!

    Thanks everybody! I've been gone at work all day & this is nice to come home to! my husband & my youngest son both came to the defense, it was a little intimidating , but not as bad as I thought. I don't know what I expected, I guess they would TEST me or something, LOL! ANyway, one of my committee members is a very dear friend whom I haven't seen in ten years. She came all the way to Ohio from Mississippi for this - it was great to see her. So now....i guess it's time to find a real job!

    Congratulations!!! I've worked at a University for years now and seen a lot of students defend, even helped some prepare. The most common thing I see is they've worked so hard and focused so much they don't know what to do with themselves once their done and they have all this free time...lol
