I think I might be losing it a little. I have nice clean keys (hey, didn't you know that was important?) because I managed to send my key chain through the wash. I alternately tried this morning to leave something behind or to think I had (I "lost" my bag that was sitting right in front of me and then tried to walk half-way down the hallway without my coffee cup).
What is getting me through all this?
- Lots of caffeine (maybe not that much now that Jim has switched us to half-caf ...but I do have a least a cup of coffee every day and usually one Coke.)
- To-do lists (can't live without em! Can't always find them and don't always remember to look at them....but I can't live without 'em.)
- Reminding myself that some PhD friends of the family say that you don't earn a PhD....you take it. So with that in mind I keep plugging along.

Hang in there! Determination and stubborness count for a lot at this point ("I've come this far, and I'll be darned if I don't finish!").
You'll get there! And then you won't know what to do with the time you have freed up after school. I think a large part of academics at any age is persistence.
