Leave of Absence
Hey all, guess what? This post isn't about how cute my son is (although he is pretty cute). It is about me. Yup. You heard me. So, I know a lot of you have asked me what is going on with my Ph.D., if I am quitting, if I am going to keep going, whatever. To answer your questions, I have decided to take a leave of absence from it for at least a year. Come the end of June I can focus on having a little time for me again. I am really looking forward to the break and feel like it is a great option since I am a little torn. I am so worn out but have put 4 years into it and am 2/3 done. It is hard to just quit something you have worked so hard for. I felt like a huge weight was lifted after talking to my advisor about the whole thing yesterday. Anyways, I will get to find out what it feels like to be a stay at home mom that doesn't feel guilty for neglecting her baby or work. It will be nice.
