Please give me a push!

Ack, I feel like I have fallen into the hole of Hell! Well, ok, it isn't this bad, but honestly it is now Wednesday morning and I feel like I haven't accomplished anything. In reality I have, but it isn't the right kind of make you feel great and gets you extra motivated type of accomplishment. Monday and Tuesday I was being a full-time mom, so that obviously has some impact on what I am able to get done. Monday was pretty dreadful, since little wiggle pants was full of energy and requests from the entertainment committee. Yesterday was a bit better and I was able to get through nearly the remainder of the VISOR I report. I will finish that today in between meetings and train rides. Heh. It is always some distraction to keep me from reading, isn't it?

Yesterday's accomplishments:
1. Send several emails to prospectives about participating.
2. Emailed a participant respondent.
3. Read VISOR I report.
4. Called Dr. Judy's office to make appts.
5. Called for Meemster's prescription.
6. Tried to call about newspaper. (I have no patience for hold!)
7. Called about focus group participation.

It seems like there were a few other things in there, but I suppose this is a good start. I guess I am just feeling pressure to get the lit review and methods section fleshed out... and this alongside trying to get a second pilot participant is making me very uneasy. I suppose I need to feel that unease to keep me motivated. I am really getting that pit in my stomach, need to get moving type of feeling these days. I just feel I am at a standstill. Grrrrrrr.

Anyway, so today I have to go downtown for a few meetings. The majority of the day is my own, nevertheless. I should use the motivation I feel right now to get busy. I am going to cut my blog short today to do just that. My list is below and as you can see there are too many things that are lingering, lingering, lingering from last week. I will do much better today! I can do much better today. :-)

1. Read the rest of VISOR I
2. Add annotations for VISOR I & II.
3. Find R. Bradley's paper!
4. Send an email to SIG-AH re: web site.
5. Summer camp for the Meemster.
6. Read/skim the visual literacy stuff.
7. Go get prescriptions.
