It's hard to believe it's July already. I'm busier this summer than I'd planned, but I'm getting a lot accomplished.
I tackled a summer class at Pitt in May and June hoping to knock out a few more credits and finish up early. It worked out well because most of it was when my son was still in school and I was able to get precious study time in during the day. (Evenings can be tough on my concentration level when my little tornado is home.)
The workload was intense, as those type of condensed classes tend to be, but after working hard and putting in the hours of study time, guess what?
I got an A!
And boy did it feel great. Onward...
I was going to knock out another class in the second six-week session, but I had an unexpected loss of funds that nearly left me unable to pay for even the first class (and summer classes at Pitt sure aren't cheap). Thank goodness for family and friends. I ate light for a bit, but I guess I needed to lose a few pounds anyway.
Everything worked out okay though. As a friend pointed out, I'd be studying right now if I'd taken that second class. The second six-week session is currently in progress, but now that I'm truly on summer break, I'm enjoying some quality time with my son, and with family and friends.
It's a beautiful sunny day here in Pittsburgh. We're heading to the pool.
ACCIDENTAL FATE will be released in just under three weeks now!
Have a great day,
Lee

Lee, ouch for the budget crunch but YAY for having summer break. :D
That happened to me when I was in college and my children were 6 and 8. I know how hard that must have been for you. You're going to be so happy when you have that degree in your hand. Super congrats on the A. :D
I'm happy you enjoyed my blog photos and short fiction story. :D Remember the good ole WRR days. We sure had a great time at Harlequin.
Hugs, Nancy
