Longer lessons and checklist

As the lessons have gotten longer I find myself spending more time at the computer and less on my thesis. I would really rather be doing this, but there is only so much time in a day. Is that an excuse? Aah, so much to do, so little time.»

Budgets

Well I've never been good at budgeting and today I found out that I have to cut a fair chunk of my spending to stay within my income now that I'm divorced. At first I was very depressed and felt deprived, but now I am thinking of making this a game and seeing how much I can cut o»

Feeling Overwhelmed

I feel so bad today. I lied. I didn't go in to work and told them I was sick, because I was just too exhausted and overwhelmed to deal with work. I worked an extra day last week and had to fly to Sacramento for the day, which totally wiped me out and then I had tried to h»

On My Way

Well, I got started on my thesis. I really enjoyed the work I did today. It seemed that I saw a connection that felt really important to the point I want to make and so I feel I'm on my way. It was so great getting support here. I felt empowered to get going. Thanks »

Getting Psyched

Well, tomorrow is the day I have dedicated to finally starting work on my Masters' Thesis. I have been putting it off, but no longer have any excuses. I'm ready to dive in, but not quite sure where to start. I'm hoping inspiration will direct me.»
