Do a little bit everyday. Take breaks when you need to. When you get in a groove type, type and type some more.

Huge congratulations to you, EvesDilemma!! Sorry - DR EvesDelimma!!

Thanks for the words of encouragement, Savantrice and bhop! I just finished a long conversation with a friend who started my PhD program with me, but is graduating in 2 weeks. I should be finishing with her! But I'm feeling more motivated than I have in a while. Mission: dissertation defense by August.

BUMP!!

Met with my major professor today. Feeling motivated! The plan is for me to defend my prospectus (proposal) in August, and finish & defend my dissertation in time to walk in the December commencement.

Praying that I can stay focused!!
