The World's Youngest Senior Citizen

I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. If all goes as planned, I’ll be finished my degree in 145 days. Or 3503 hours. Or 210208 minutes. I’ve been working on it since 1999. That’s eleven years!! Sure I’ve been to more post-secondary institutes than I can count on one hand, but nonetheless, I’m using those credits and I’m almost done!!

As you can probably guess from the lack of blog activity, the past while has been incredibly busy. I’m trying to balance life with a new job, a course with a fair amount of group work, and well, the rest of life! There have been moments where I just want to hide under my desk and retreat from the world. The next few months are going to be equally if not more busy than the past few. It’s the final push and I can hardly wait.

On August 15th, at approximately 9:00 p.m., I’ll be finished. I’ve got all sorts of plans for August and September. All those things that I’ve been putting off will be tackled. I dream of the evening that I come home from work and can do absolutely nothing, if that’s what I choose. Chances are I’ll be doing the opposite. Sewing projects, knitting projects, Spanish classes, photography classes, more dance classes. Maybe even training for a half-marathon?!

So bear with me over the next while. I’ll be back in full on blogging, cooking, baking, sewing, crafting mode in all its senior citizen glory soon enough. In about 210189 minutes if we’re counting.
