More Progress

I wrote to 2 contacts today who I hope can set me up with child welfare agencies that will permit me to do the data gathering.

Managed to move from faffing to producing this weekend. Good deal.

Progress!


Finished revising my slides and updating my proposal summary. Tweaked the proposal itself a little -- but closed the file before I got obsessed with that.

Figured out how to download a table from the US Census site and turn it into a chart that I could insert in a PowerPoint.

Feeling virtuous -- and techie!

Doing Something

Reviewing my proposal and updating the slides I developed for my proposal class. Trying to get ready for June 12.

Have to contact colleagues about connecting with some child welfare agencies too.

Kinda Scared Now!

I am going to defend my proposal in June. That means a lot of things. I have to find child welfare agencies to let me survey staff.

I have to interview.

I have to collect and analyze data.

I have to finish writing the dissertation.


Yikes!
