I’ve been a bit more distracted than usual this past week. This very day I have delivered my completed thesis for what will be my second masters degree to the university program office. After two years of trying to balance my family and business life with the demands of a full time graduate program, I have for the first time seen a light at the end of the tunnel that I do not immediately suspect is an oncoming train. All that is left now is to await word of its acceptance. Once this is received, it is a straight shot onward to June 22 for graduation.
Needless to say, my family is very happy that I have reached this point and will soon be returning to them. Although I have not lived outside of our home during this entire period I have spent considerable time holed up in the library studying and have not always been an active participant in the normal daily life of the family. This more than anything else is what I look forward to with the completion of this program.
Peace and good bird watching.
