24 weeks of grace: just breathe & keep swimming

Fingers, toes and anything else imaginable are all crossed right now. Oxford commas are eluding me... So is focus this afternoon. It's been a great weekend: productive plus chill time. I'm thrilled with what I've gotten done around the house this week. Baby steps are definitely working for me.

Tomorrow is the defense & I'm trying to visualize everything I need to take care of for it. I'm not nervous-nervous. I'm just ready to go in, do what I have to and move forward. I'm looking forward to getting input on questions that I have on methodology that have come up in the past two weeks. One of my friends sent me edits. I'm looking at them after a little garden therapy. My dress for tomorrow is out. I'm ready to roll.

I'm also ready to call the hairdresser. My haircut is a style-ish amalgamation and I know what I want changed on it now. Yay.

Other than grad school and work, this week is practicing bf, heading to a lecture weds night, choosing a furnace and getting back to pumpkin clause with everything else I have going on.

Breathing. I've got this.
