After the endless meetings and orientations over the past two months, his actual classes start today at seminary. He has five today, with the first one (Developmental Psych) starting at 8 a.m. He goes until 4:30, then goes back from 6-9. I do indeed feel his pain. He’s excited as well as just a little apprehensive (the old-dog-doing-new-tricks thing). Gofrit, Thriller. You can do it — you’re never too old.
Weirdest thing: seeing him come down the stairs at 5:30 a.m. Good thing he’s quiet as a church mouse…otherwise I’d hafta get violent.

/ 8 October, 2009Congrats, Thriller, and best of luck to you. You’re bringing something into class that those younger students don’t have and can’t buy ANYwhere: maturity and experience. Keep us posted on your progress.

/ 8 October, 2009I’m thrilled for the Thriller! The old adage is a generalization and isn’t true in all instances. An old dog can learn new tricks. You’re an exception (and so am I — still learning at age ____) Blessings as you enter into this new, exciting, challenging and fulfilling experience.

/ 8 October, 2009Many thanks to all of you. Your words of encouragement have made my day! Speaking of which … the first day of classes is history. Starting tomorrow, I’ll hit the books and begin all the homework assignments that were given out today. But, it’s 9:15 pm right now, and I’m just going to relax a bit and reflect on the day’s events. Oh yeah. And I’ll probably eat something…. gotta remember to eat… lol Take care, friends!
