Hi Everyone! I am so happy!! I am finally done with the coursework for my Ph.D. in Human Services with a specialization in Social Research ;D. It's been a long time coming but I am finally done with that phase of the degree and in December I will begin the last stretch--the dissertation. I hope to have that finished by the end of next August and then I will be Dr. Coopsgirl . I haven't been posting much the last three months b/c I was taking three courses (normally I take two) to finish out the coursework and I did not have much free time. I hope I'll have a little more time for the site now because even though I will still be busy, the work will be spread out over a longer period of time as opposed to having weekly assignments due like during the courses. I hope everybody has a great Thanksgiving this week and be careful if you are travelling. Angie

Congratulations, Angie--final stretch! I, too, am a Ph.D. candidate looking / hoping to be able to add "Dr." to my name by next year (probably the summer, too). Finishing coursework feels amazing!
I'm in awe that you find any time at all to keep us posted on Coop and associated information. Thanks so much and best wishes as you continue towards the end of graduate school!

Wow, congratulations Boffin in having finished the coursework for your PhD! This is an awesome achievement.
I hope you folks had a wonderful and happy thanksgiving. My apologies for the delayed wishes. In RSA its not a recognised holiday so its totally off my radar.

Things sure have been crazy here lately. My parents and I put our house up for sale in September and it sold at the end of October. Next week we are moving into a rent house while our new house is being built. It's in the same area in a new subdivision about 10 miles from where we live now. Here is a picture of the model house that is the same as the one we are having built. It will have the balcony and a three car garage (the sales office is where the garage would be in the model here). The brick and stone will be different but you get the general idea. My grandmother who is 79 and has Parkinson's disease will be moving in with us too so we are upgrading to a bigger house (2950 sq. ft from 2500 sq. ft.) We are all very excited but really worn out. We have been packing for weeks and boy, do we have a lot of stuff! It should be done some time in the spring and I'll post pics once we get moved in and settled. I'll have a game room and separate media room (it'll be my living room) so lots of room to put out all my Gary stuff ;D. I really would like to be doing more with the site but I'm also still in school and that takes a lot of time. I'm a year into my dissertation and I should be finished in about another six months. It usually takes a year and half to complete it and I'll be so glad when it's finally over! I hope everybody has a great holiday season coming up and a very happy and blessed new year!
