If at first you don't succeed,
try, try again.
Two days of being sick and I have fallen off my horse and into the mire of procrastination. i wouls get back on but the horse seems to have bolted.
May you all find your horses,
Mount them confidently,
And gallop into the week ahead.

JESTER'S BACK - Tuesday October 29, 2012
Been several years since I've been here, I think.
Have had various coping mechanisms in the meanwhile, some helpful. Calling a PA-type friend in the AM, or texting a sister in the AM, or hiring a part-time assistant and/or housekeeper, or working in partnership with a girlfriend. Coping mechanisms, got me by sometimes, but you know what... here I am.
Glad you folk are still around!
Regards,
Jester
(Justright)
Keep coming back!!
Still "showing up" that is a miracle. Vic

Calypso's check-in
Good morning. Grateful this morning. Today plan to do a substantial start onn my discussion section, want to make a specific measurable goal, so I can ascertain to what extent I have reached my goal by the end of the day. So, now I will read how to do the discussion section, then start doing it. I have a number of points I want to make in the section, just need to find out how to do it. That is my goal, will report back in the middle of the day.
Calypso
Progress report
So far I have been reading about how to do the discussion section and working on a diagram.. and now need to set some goals which I can actually get done.. so.. definitely going to have my outline done wihtin the next 1 hr. And be clear on how I will fill on those parts in the outline.
