did the 15 minutes of fame!
The presentation is DONE!! I was presentation number 8 of 12 of the new doctoral candidates. It was a pretty cool experience and and I'm glad it's finished. . . . A classmate actually video taped all our presentations and so I'm looking at how I did. .

Just a few short days
and it'll be over. Let's see. . .the list before leaving for Pennsylvania
manuscript bound (2 copies) and ready to go = check
poster, ordered and received = check
powerpoint for presentation = check
handouts for instructors and peers = almost check, need to make copies
electronic format for capstone project = check
suitcases out with beginning signs of packing = check
graduation costume packed = check
outfits picked out for presentations = check
girls hair done for the weekend = check
okay, what am I forgetting? I'll never know until I'm on the airplane and remember, oh yea, I forgot ________________!!! Geez, oh well. . . and then will think I can do without it for just a few days. . .
need to get cheese curds for my cohort, yes cheese curds!
When we met in July, no one knew what a cheese curd was so we all decided to gift each other with something known for in our state, so Wisconsin = cheese (cheese curds). Now, what kind to get? Decisions, decisions. I'll be so elated Sunday night when we are on our way home and life can resume to something more normal.
