Trying to keep up.

Finished my rough draft tonight. It has been a horrible week. But I feel better that I have completed my second draft. It is completely different from my first and it really has little to do with Bin Laden, but I think that I did a much better job of using my sources. I dont know if my paper is very good in terms of answering or resolving my question, but I think I really got some good analysis going and I think I was able to engage my sources. I will wait to hear what everyone says though. I dont feel confident, but for the moment I feel relieved. I am exhausted and it has been hard to concentrate on school with everything that has been happening. But it is pertinent that I keep my eye on the prize, regardless of what else is going on in my life. I just hope that I can continue to be sucessful. I havent been able to sleep much because these hospital beds are as comfortable as a rock and it is hard to sleep with moniters attached to you and everytime you move a nurse has to come in and find the baby again in your tummy so it has been almost impossible to get any rest. I was allowed to get wheeled outside today and it was so wonderful to get out of this room. Otherwise I just worked on my paper and tried to get a few things accomplished. I hope that my paper is closer to meeting the course goals. In fact, I am praying that it is because I could certainly use a little less stress in my life right now.
