Summer has been eventful for me.....
1. Biotechnology Program -- I attended ACC's fasttrack program this summer. A very intense program whereby we had 5-1/2 weeks of classes for 3 full days each week, then later had 5-1/2 weeks of nearly 40 hrs/wk internship at many Biotech type locations. Mine was held at the Texas Department of Health. It was an invaluable learning experience and I would love to consider it for a career option; however, the market for Biotech personnel, on the whole in this area, require a degree in Science already. My degree is in Criminal Justice, but they would prefer a degree with more of a forensic approach to it, if in Criminal Justice. Therefore, I am looking to attend more classes in the Spring (preferrably online), perhaps, if I get a Scholarship to do so.
2. Granddaughter -- This summer my granddaughter was born. She is absolutely beautiful and growing slowly but surely. Well, that isn't exactly true as she is outside of the growth percentile range, but weight/height proportional. They are thinking that she may end up being very tall.
3. Still working in the crisis field. I am enjoying it and may continue to make it my career option -- if only the money was better!
4. Took a bit of time this summer for a short retreat to reflect upon the summer events and assess where I should be moving forward in my life. Still not sure about the whereto, but really enjoyed the retreat time to enjoy some much needed R&R. (The picture above is one of many pictures I took during my retreat.)
Other than that, not much else happening. Still involved in my Red Hat Society group and planning activities to keep myself active -- Church, bowling, reading books, blogging, etc. Would love to hear from you all to see what you have been doing this summer, as what your current aspirations might be. :)
