Yesterday was another complete disaster in terms of PhD work. :-( I think I was just too tired to think. I'm still tired today but feeling more positive! :-) First goal: rewrite section 2.3.1 (again!).

Oh. :-( I think I'll have to search the house for some chocolate. I hide it from the kids and then can't remember where I've put it. :$

I'm still feeling tired and sluggish and can't think straight. :-( I've got to have a draft of the second chapter by the end of the week, and I'm only half way there. Please pm me some Galaxy, Sneaks. I neeeeed some Galaxy. It might help me think.

First goal for today: revise section 2.3.1.

(sprout)

Congratulations! :-) Must be a great feeling. :-)

I've got a rough (very rough!) draft of the section - time to go home...

Next goal: write / re-write next section...

First goal completed, on to the next one: read/skim 5 papers.

I have made it to the office and am planning to get lots of work done today!

First goal: re-write last part of first section in chapter 2. :-)

You seem to be doing brilliantly, PinkNumbers! :-)

I'm still feeling sluggish and not very motivated. :-/ I really need to get on with it! First goal for today: one tomato ...

... and another 10 minutes ...

Argh! I've had an unproductive weekend, and unproductive day yesterday, and an even more unproductive day today! First goal for today: work 10 minutes (just 10 minutes!) on section I've been trying to work. (sprout) Then have a cup of tea.

Just about managed first goal of the day: not losing my sanity completely. :-) Next goal: having another look at the structure for chapter 2 - it's not quite right yet, and I'm stuck with writing because I don't know where to put things!

Weekend's goal completed: new pony happily settled into field. :-)

Today's first (and possibly only) goal: keeping sane. (As much as I love my parents, they are driving me bonkers.)

Might even get some PhD work done later on...

I usually use the weekend to get a lot of work done, but it looks like I won't be able to do any this weekend. My parents are just about to arrive (and the house is still a big mess...) and tomorrow we're getting a pony which we have somehow acquired (long story). We'll have to spend most of today getting the field ready. We must be mad.

So, no PhD goals this weekend. :-(

Congratulations, MumPhDstudent! :-) That's great news. (up)

Soon you'll be able to just focus on the birth & baby. :-)
