anonemouse 1 Posted December 6, 2006 Next week is going to be hell. I have to turn in two take-home final exams, homework for one class, and send all the grades for my students to their professors. I have my psych evaluation in Nashville, TN on Tuesday, pulmonology clearance in Lexington, KY on Wednesday, and have to be back in Nashville on Thursday for my nutritionist evaluation and surgeon consultation. Those two cities are about 4 hours apart. Lots of driving in my future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jahair 0 Posted December 6, 2006 Whooo! I am tired out just hearing you! I remember working all through college, carrying a 16 hour load, and of course time for friends and a social life. Everytime I sat down for more than a couple of minutes, I fell asleep. Looking back with the energy of a signficantly older person, sometimes I wonder how I did it. :-) What do you listen to when you drive? My ususal plan is to stock the car with music I love to sing along to. I crank it up and let 'er rip! Now there's satellite radio, so my favorite station never goes away. Hmmm. Maybe I should plan a road trip soon?? We're rooting for you here and think how nice the Christmas break is going to be -- right after you wake up!

I really want to get satellite radio, but I have been to ceap to get it yet. Maybe that's what I should ask for for Christmas, have my family go in together on that instead of getting me a couple of smaller gifts. I am SO looking forward to a break. Not that it will be much of one, since I have to get started on my thesis and prepare a presentation for the beginning of February. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They'lkl be happy to get you what you really want and you'll be thrilled! I'm listening to New Country now on Sirius. What's funny is I am a die-hard R&B, Soul, Motown music fan, but someone turned me onto New Country and I lost my heart. Now, about that comment about it won't be much of a break because..... You're right, it won't be much of one if you are already worrying about the next thing! :eek: . It's like planning on sticking yourself with a sharp stick! Here's a radical thought. What if you had your Christmas break be about taking care of yourself, doing things that refresh your spirit and renew you;and if it looks like a serious task, or an "ought to", lay down until that moment passes? :eek: If you can do that, you will be in much better shape to do all that thesis thinking. Think about it? Jo Ann Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
