Time Writing:
10-20-10: After TE 921 on the way home I had some good thoughts while considering my discussion I am going to have with Susan Thursday. Also, need to work on PPT for practicum talk at advisee meeting which is aligned w/this article. 10pm-11:20pm (watched TV)

10-21-10- wrote in my office a lot in the morning: 10:15-11:20; 2:30-3:40 (some of this time I was working on my power point)

10-22-10- Mostly just worked on my powerpoint in between my busy day. Didn't keep track. I took the night off since it was a special family night. Had a great advisee meeting with really productive feedback on my practicum. So, some questions to think about in considering the TPS: what is my goal for the pre-service teachers, concerns working with my own interns etc.

Weekend was a wash except for Sunday. I had to read for 921 on Saturday and had family obligations. Sunday I worked on article thinking about the comments from Mary and Lisa. Totally new outline for article. I'm feeling a little bit more in control, but at the same time I feel like I am not sure how to open myself up to the "conceptual" part of this. I am having a hard time just letting myself be free to write. Are conceptual pieces suppose to be harder or is this just my insecurity? I worked on "writing" and "staring" for about 2 hours off and on because I would get up and do dishes, cook, sit on the couch etc. when I felt a bit overwhelmed.

Today: 10-25-10
11:45-1:00 - Wrapped up query sent off to Mary. Abstract also redone will repost to wiki when I hear back from Mary on query since it is similar in language.
