Thanks all - it has been a long long road, but I have lived life all along the way. Looked at it more like a job that I had to endure to get where I wanted to go. Anyway, it is not over yet. The writing is done, except for maybe some revisions that will occur after my committee read and reviews it. The final major hurdle is the Dissertation Defense, basically a two hour long grilling session about your work. So that will happen on October 1st. Thanks for cheering me on! This site has helped me maintain my sanity.
