Tomorrow the kids go back to school and Olof has the first day of his first full week of work in I can’t remember how long. I’ll be home the entire week, but I’ve got plenty of work to do if I can manage to find a way to get it done. I expected when I started my program that working around all of the kids would be challenging, but I’ve been completely caught off-guard by Yrsa. “Demanding” doesn’t begin to describe her. She wants what she wants, when she wants it, and she won’t take no for an answer. If I don’t move quickly enough to suit her, she just grabs my hand and takes me where she wants me to be. We’ve got her signed up to start pre-school\/daycare in the fall, and it’s a good thing. I can barely read a page when she’s on the move, let alone write a master’s thesis.<\/p>\n
Speaking of the thesis, I’m in the process of changing my topic again, which makes the proposal outline I’m to submit this Wednesday a bit tricky. At the moment I don’t know much more than the general area I’ll be writing in and I doubt I’ll have made much headway in the next few days. It’s just a draft that’s due, and there’s still time for discussion before the actual proposal is due in May, but it’s making me a little antsy not to have anything prepared. I keep reminding myself that I wouldn’t be changing without the support and encouragement of two of my professors, so it’s not an entirely hare-brained scheme, even if it does have me feeling somewhat unmoored just now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
