FRIDAY!!

I am glad it is Friday!! I had my last Thursday night class for this semester and hopefully forever. My classes are only supposed to meet on the weekend and this Thursday night class has put a huge damper on my Grey's Anatomy. Thank God for DVR!! But, Allison and I gave our big book project to Dr. Griffith and now I just have one more paper due before the end of the semester(Yipee!!!). Our class last night was very encouraging. Dr. Griffith had three students who had just finished their dissertations come and talk to us. One of the ladies was one of my teachers for one of my undergrad classes. I am feeling more and more confident about this whole dissertation process. I had a lot of misconceptions about what I would have to do. The most encouraging ascpect was that all of these women worked full time, which I will have to do, and that has been my biggest worry. Will I be able to conduct the necessary research while I am working....I now know the answer is yes.

Let me just talk for a minute about my new love of scarves. I bought a scarf to go with my coat and it has a matching hat and gloves, but then I remembered the great scarf I bought for myself in London. It has been in my closet since I sent it to the dry cleaners. Since this discovery, I have been shopping for all kinds of scarves, plaid, plain, cashmere, it doesn't matter, I just want scarves.

Have a happy Friday!!
