The looking glass....

Me & my sis

This was probably 10 years or so ago....back in my more "blond" days, ha ha.  We look a lot alike, and not alike at all.  Funny.  

While listening to NPR on the way to work, part of the discussion concerned how our own self image  is reflected back to us from our friends, co-workers and family.  I tried to visualize that and failed miserably!  It has been on my mind though.  How do others see me?  Do I come across as quiet and introspective?  Or snobby and self absorbed?  Ugh....hopefully not the latter.  I've never been boisterous.  I think I've always been watchful and careful ~ something I would like to change.

The semester is finally over, and I turned in my final paper almost two weeks ago...both nerve wracking and relief!  I did receive my final grade this week, and was relieved to see I have an A.  I plan to pick up my paper today to see her comments.  I'm sure there were other classes that I was happy to see the end of...like statistics which was very difficult!  I'm glad this one is over for some distance from the depressive nature of the material, even though I learned quite a bit of how difficult each and every day is for some, and how thankful I am for all the blessings of family, friends, work and working on my degree.

Yes.....

ha ha ha

Well, gotta get going!  Enjoy your weekend!

  1. Haha.. cat.. 'we are all going to die'.

    Must be a huge relief to be done with the school stuff. I was so happy back in 1979 when my sentence was over and I was free!!!!

    I have said SO many times that someone could offer me all expenses covered, go to class in a limo, foot massages, housecleaning services, meals cooked, free everything... if I would just go to school. And I would run screaming in the opposite direction as fast as I could, crying, 'NOOOOOOOO' all the way.

    I hated school. Still do.

    1. Yeah, well I was well past my 40's before I decided that I would like to have a bachelor's degree, so don't feel out of the loop. Just so ya know, the Univ. nurse told me they have plenty of older "professional" students!
