What have you been up to for the last 45 years?
I have worked with kids my entire adult life. After completing a BS then a Masters in counseling and educational psychology with a counseling credential in pupil personnel services, I went to work. My counseling career has covered elementary, middle school and most of my years in high school. I have been at Mercy College Prep High School in San Francisco for the last four years. All girls and uniforms . . . . I have died and gone to heaven.
My focus today is completing my last three classes for a doctorate of ministry at U‚S and writing my disertation. I love to travel and have been to some wonderful countries including traveling the United States. I'm thinking about retirement these days (winding down) and possibly doing some chaplaincy work part-time in a hospital with a private practice in Spiritual Direction. but honestly . . . I'm not sure of anything in the future; who is?
I have recently become engaged after being single for 13 years to a wonderful guy with the exact same job in another private school. I guess that's enough info for now. I'm looking forward to seeing high school friends and just appreciating being alive in these troubled times. Hey! Where's the spell check?
