Initial Set Up Blog For Class

Hi, my name is Amber.  I just retired from the Air Force in August and this is the start of my 2nd term at Brandman University.  So, until I finish school, or get a good job, I am a stay at home mom and student.  My kids have said that I'm a better mom now that I'm not in the military.  So, I will enjoy that while I can.
Personally, I spend a lot of time with my children.  I am a single mom of 2.  I have a son and a daughter, or as I call it, the best (and worst) of both worlds.  I like to cook, listen to music, read, watch "my shows" and I love white wine.  I brought back about 300 from Germany and Italy with me here to the U.S. I am actually from San Francisco and got back to the state 14 months ago.  
Academically I am persuing a degree in Organizational Leadership in Supply Chain.  I worked Supply Logistics when I was in the Air Force, so I figured I'd stick to what I know.  I originally wanted to do Social Work, but to really work in the field, I would need to pursue my Masters, and that would take a few years to complete.  I have 2 Associates, one in Logistics and one in General Studies.  I have 2 years left until I complete my Bachelors and then I would like to get a certificate in Human Resources.  
I'm also a SF Giants and 49er fan.  I love basketball.  My kids have me watch WWE every week.  And both my kids are involved in sports.  We stay pretty busy and I enjoy whatever down time I can get.
Other than that…not much else to say.  Looking forward to class.
I can always use help with my research techniques as well as my writing.
