Success!!

I have finally made a lot of progress on my dissertation. I have completed chapters one, two, and three. Well, number three is still a work in progress, but it is turned in! I hope that I am on the right track. It has taken me since the Spring of 2009 to get just this little bit done. I was frozen in time, stuck in a rut, couldn't think past my nose, couldn't concentrate, and just plain gave up writing. I could have, and should have, had all five chapters finished by now!!!!! Time has passed, and my brain is finally working again. I am able to concentrate. Today, my mind was as clear as a bell. Isn't that great! I woke up very early, even though I went to bed late. I was ready to go. Last night, I bought four boxes of Lipton Vegetable mixes at Kroger, in order to make veggie dip (they are hard to find). EVERY packet in those FOUR boxes was OPEN on the sides. Something weird went on in that distribution building. So, I took all 4 boxes back early this morning. I never get out early on a Saturday, but I was out by 10 o'clock on the road to the store. I got there and had an 'up front' parking space, got ready to go in, and then I realized that I did NOT have the receipt! Can you imagine? I was so excited to be out early and getting things done, then I had to go all the way back home for a silly receipt. But, I got back in no time, and the young boy at the customer service place was very nice. So, I felt good, had $6.50 in my pocket, and came on home. Then, I got around to the business of studying and writing. Whew! I feel so good. I am not even confused or dazed like I usually am.
I also finished my book last night called Just Choose Happiness. The last part of the book was about letting the Holy Spirit into our lives. I always enjoy reading about the Holy Spirit. When I was a teenager, or in college, I took a course on the Holy Spirit at our church. It must have been a summertime study or something. Anyway, I really enjoyed it.
So, I am ready to Spring AHEAD tonight. If I hadn't gotten so much great work done today, I would be dreading the change of time. BUT, since I am finished for the quarter, I feel GOOD! Now, let's hope my mentor likes what I had to say and the work is on its way to being accepted.
I hope you all have a tremendous rest of the weekend!! I will actually be able to go outside tomorrow! For the last three weekends, I have been inside, inside, inside, studying and writing and not being able to enjoy the pretty sunshine. Well, tomorrow I will get out and about. I might even wash the dogs again! HA! ;)
Later gators!!
