It’s official. I (Cyndi) am going back to MIT. The Systems Design and Management program office called yesterday to say I’ve been accepted. And I have to be on campus January 5. So now I have to channel all my excitement into a whole bunch of preparation in a short time. I can’t give too many details yet. At least I have friends in Massachusetts who will let me stay with them until I figure some things out. (Thanks, guys!)
The plan is to attend full time for 13 months and complete a masters degree. Eddie and the kids stay here in Michigan, and Eddie gets a lot of practice at juggling. Give him a lot of credit, and pray for him. I hope that the economy and the job market improve in that time. At least then I’ll be job searching with a second MIT degree (MIT squared!) and assistance from their career office.
They say that learning at MIT is like drinking from a fire hose. Good thing I’m thirsty.
