Me and my dearest friend, Cathy. (Her daughter is hiding under the food.) Both of us met at a deaf camp years ago and rekindled our friendship while we were in deaf education program at Kent State. After graduation, we all went out to eat and played pool at our favorite hangout, Ray’s, in Kent. It was nice being back in Kent.

Before graduation, Rob took these pictures and posted them live via pixelpipe. This is me taking out my cap, gown, and hood.

I’m taking a short hiatus from blogging. I have a final exam and a final paper coming up in the next two weeks. Keep me in your thoughts as I study case laws in special education.
I’m finally graduating with a master’s in deaf education from Kent State University on December 13 (after starting the program back in fall of 1999). It’s a long story. Anyway, I was able to return to the program and finish it. I know I’m extremely lucky, because often universities would have required one to redo all the coursework if one did not complete in time. I wrote a letter explaining what I have been doing for the past several years since I left the program and my desire to finish and earn that degree. Three letters of recommendations were also sent. I was able to come back and complete the program as I left it. Without the support of faculty at Kent Statue and my former employers back in Virginia, I would not be able to do that. For that, I’m deeply grateful for their understanding and support.
Since the move, we have been overwhelmed. Rob started his job. We unpacked (and we are still unpacking in Rob’s office and at home). We got our driver’s licenses and license plates. We met our neighbors and the congregation, and we started to get to know them. I got an interview for a job, and I got it. Rob got ordained, and both of our families came to the ordination service. I started the new job. I signed up for the last course before I graduate in December. We got a VP200 (a videophone) and got our iPhones to stay in touch with our friends and families. We are getting settled in our new home. Now, I’m back to writing posts.
Y’all come back, ya hear?
Watch out for more posts soon.
