Super User Muddy Posted February 13, 2009 Super User Posted February 13, 2009 Hey Fellas; I am on my way to Brooklyn, as I was leaving and packing our the truck with my shopping list from Elaine, my landlord came out and told me they had a package they signed for yesterday. IT IS MY DIPLOMA For many an Associates degree is not much for me it is a miracle At 41 I was homeless and unemployable. Thanks to a lot of help from my NA brothers and sisters, my life has been a string of miracles for the last 17 years. I got a lot of support here from Long Mike, RW, Risk Kid,LBH, Brent and especially GHOTI. Now I am a Mook with a Degree, UNBELIVEABLE Dominick Quote
BUCKEYEone Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 Congrats to you Muddy! No degree is easy, certainly something to be proud of! Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted February 13, 2009 Super User Posted February 13, 2009 CONGRATULATIONS! Quote
foul hooked Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 I got an Associates degree, then a Bachelors. The work load for the Associates was just as difficult as the Bachelors. Don't sell your accomplishment short. Congratulations. Quote
senko_77 Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 Way to go Dom!!! Don't be surprised when you get a pm from me asking for some help on my HW!!! Quote
drmnbig Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 Congrats! I don't care what anyone says but even an Associates degree takes some hard work. I'm 31 and about halfway through with mine. BTW, what was your major? Mines criminal justice. Quote

Super User Muddy Posted February 13, 2009 Author Super User Posted February 13, 2009 Thanks to all. There will be no book about my life. Nothing spectacular about making bad choices and substance abuse. I am grateful I was rescued from active addiction, but there are no parades to be thrown out of finally doing what is basically expected of every man. Quote
Super User senile1 Posted February 13, 2009 Super User Posted February 13, 2009 Great job, Dominick! I know it took a log of hard work, especially while working full time. Congratulations! Quote
Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted February 13, 2009 Super User Posted February 13, 2009 Thanks to all. There will be no book about my life. Nothing spectacular about making bad choices and substance abuse. I am grateful I was rescued from active addiction, but there are no parades to be thrown out of finally doing what is basically expected of every man. I wish everyone who once made bad choices and is now doing the right thing had this outlook on life. Kudos to you Dom. You might be a crazy old mook, but your humility is honorable. Quote
Super User Dan: Posted February 13, 2009 Super User Posted February 13, 2009 Congratulations, Muddy. That really is great. Quote
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted February 13, 2009 BassResource.com Administrator Posted February 13, 2009 Fantastic! Absolutely fantastic. I can't even begin to tell you how proud I am of you. I, too, have an associates degree, and know firsthand it is NOT an easy cakewalk! Kudos to you for sticking with it and seeing it through to completion. Not everyone has that kind of fortitude. Quote
