Hi y'all,
Been a while but things have been busy round here. Yesterday a whole lot of things culminated in this GREAT event.

My dear wife got her BS degree!!!
Lots of tears and laughter. Lots of friends, without whom this never could have happened.
During the wait for the ceremony, four or five folks came up and started talking to me. My son, twelve, told me " That kilt is a real conversation starter!" I just had to agree.
The day went went well and now the realization that this part of life has ended but another BIG part is about to start. Hmmmm....What are the career choices for an onery, busted up, not formally educated, almost 50 year old bovine pedacurist?
Not about me today. Just had to share our delight and pride.

Great pictures. Your wife deserves a medal for this accomplishment! I'm sure she will find that all her hard work, and the sacrifices that all had to make will pay off!

Thanks for the good wishes all. Teri's degree is Human Delelopment and Family Studies/ minor in counseling. Not the most financially lucrutive of fields but I have the feeling there a LOT of other rewards.
Ron, since I have managed to keep our income rather low for the last few years, I don;t think our support will suffer by Teri getting a job. LOL! Thanks for the complement about the turn out! I never thought a Blackwatch kilt would go with my Macgregor scarf but the greens are almost a perfect match. Besides, I am proud of the MacGregor connection and the Blackwatch would have to go if I had to make a choice.
I am hopeing to be able to go back to get some schooling. Now if I can decide what I enjoy doing. Up to this point I have been something of a diletant.<sp> I am not sure I could take classes I am not interested in just because someone else said I HAD to!
Have a great Christmas and a safe New Year.
