4 Down, 9 to Go

Cherry Tree in my "back" yard, just starting to bloom. It's a buzzing cacophony of honey bees right now, and a halo of white flowers.
Just a quick post to say I am officially done with my first semester! Pretty cool. I look back to January 1st, and can't believe it has only been four months, because it seems like a lifetime ago. The title of this blog refers to the 13 core classes needed for this doctorate. Thanks everyone for helping me along through the last four months. Couldn't have done it without your support, truly. :)


The first of the tulips I brought from home, blooming. The rest are starting to pop up buds, too.
I'm working on posting links to my papers here, especially the one on Multiple Intelligences, which I think many of you will be interested in. Soon I will start tackling the mountain of reading for my summer classes, and working on the book I'm writing on the McNair study. But for the immediate future, I'm taking a couple days "off" to do some much needed organizing and cleaning and setting up of my house here. Need to take pictures of the beautifully greening trees and the girls running through the foot-high grass in the thorn bush pasture, and the horses who are shedded out and starting to look fit with all their work. But that can wait a bit...
