This last month was a bit busy for me, a lot to do, a lot of issues to deal with and the month of December shouldn't be any less difficult with typical Christmas tasks. My time online has been short. My mom did a small medical procedure and everything is well. I have been considering taking a postgraduate degree, but I still need to evaluate if it will be an asset to my future and if I dare to go back to university It is still sunny here but cold, at least it isn't raining which is already good. Hope everything is well with you all. Photo of the Christmas decorations in my workroom.

Going back to school would definitely be something to consider. I would love to be able to do something like that but it isn't something I could do right now. I'm glad your mom's procedure went well. I hope your kids are doing well and driving you crazy once in a while. It's sunny and cold here, too.

Hi @DaddyEvil I think this pos graduation will be good for me as in a couple of years my bosses will retire and I want to get a better position at work. It is related with libraries that is something that I love. Thank you for your words

I love to learn new things and the university was a fantastic time for me. This posgraduation is only 6 months and it is related to my work, Promotion, Cultural and Educational Dynamization of Archives and Libraries.

They look so pretty. You could maybe wait until your kids are older, Having two kids and a job...it would probably be too much to try to get another degree at this time. Unless you see a clear need and clear path..I probably would postpone, or take no more than one course and see how it goes whether your have time for it or not.

I've also been away. Working on a postgraduate degree would be a big commitment I suppose, but I guess there are solutions for those who are already working. I wonder if you can start studying on your own and see if you're able to dedicate enough time as well as check if the motivation is on point, before enrolling. It would be awesome but you really gotta make sure you got what it takes. The decorations at your work place are impressive!

Classes are after work and online, which is very good and for only 6 months, which is why I'm thinking about taking it. The worst thing is the cost of the post-graduation.

@nela13 Well, that sounds very doable and paying for it would be enough to motivate you too, I bet. But yeah, it's still a huge investment you can't take lightly.
