I used to submit posts rather regularly and then I went back to school. (Yes, you can teach an old dog new tricks.) As part of my schooling I’m required to write a lot and in all honesty, the deadlines kind of stress me. There are many rules I’ve had to adjust to since returning to scholastic life in my fifties. When I did my undergraduate work I wrote my papers on a typewriter and did research in the stacks of a library. Now my studies are done on-line and everything is filed electronically. Some subjects require the writing  to be done in Turabian format with only one space between a period and the beginning of the next sentence. Other subjects require APA formatting with double spaces between sentences. Who thinks up this stuff? I don’t know but with the cost of graduate fees, I don’t want to lose points for such trivial issues yet that’s what  happens if I don’t conform to the specifications outlined. Learning is worth the effort though. We are all able to continue learning if we apply ourselves and it’s worth the work.

It’s been humbling to say the least. My new best friend is the Kindle reader I use exclusively for the two dictionaries it contains. I employ a friend to format the  pages of my final papers most semesters before I transmit them. Some professors want the page numbers in the upper right hand corner if the page has a heading, otherwise the number is to be centered at the bottom. These pages link automatically and the frustration and anxiety grows as the minutes pass. What’s a girl to do but call in someone with patience to format the unruly WORD 2010?  But it’s worth it, it’s worth it. This is the mantra I keep repeating as I pass from one semester to the next, it’s worth it. The Bible verse I’ve clung to since I began this odyssey is found in Second Peter 1:5 “ For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge.

I recently met a woman in the Case Management dept. who once worked for Sutter. She is now in her sixties and she’s working on her dissertation for her Ph.D. Misery loves company and her example spurs me on. Is there something you’ve been wanting to do but you keep putting it off because it seems too hard or too farfetched? Perhaps you should take the next step, it may be worth it.

Ann Vernon-Scriven from Bag it Up will be at Sutter Delta tomorrow, June 3rd from 7am to 6pm selling her beautiful purses, wallets, hats, and sunglasses. Ann is donating 20 % of her proceeds to Sutter Delta’s Auxiliary. 

Ann was so happy to get the opportunity to come to Sutter Delta because of the great care her family received last year. Ann’s Father Alan Vernon had been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in November 2008. He fought hard and was in and out of Sutter Delta several times since his diagnosis. His last visit was a three week stay, and unfortunately Alan lost his fight to cancer. Ann says that although it was the hardest thing for her and her family to go through, they were so pleased with the way her Dad and their family were treated throughout his entire stay here. It seemed fitting for Ann to return to Sutter Delta selling her purses almost 1 year to the date that her Father passed away. So please come by and meet Ann this Friday, and see all of the beautiful purses she will have on hand, while helping donate money to our Auxiliary Department.
