Are you done yet?

Almost! Slowly getting through revisions. Bringing in some more contemporary literature. The past few weeks since my thesis defence have been intense. I am only just now getting back into normal rhythm but somehow I have managed to make progress on my revisions despite life and work adding layers. Pup is happy to be back to our normal routine! Goal is to have all my revisions done before the end of February. The end is in sight! Between work, being an #AcademicParent and dragging this thesis towards the finish line, I am ready for a vacation! Or at least to have one less thing on my plate! Onward!

A puppy sitting in the chair next to her person, leans her head over the adjacent arm rests, covered with a colourful blanket and a stack of journal articles. The puppy is resting her chin on top of the stack of papers and looking at her person whose elbow is in the lower right of the frame. Pup has a short caramel jacket with a white streak encircling her nose and running up the bridge. She has soft brown eyes lined in black with eyebrows tilted as if asking a question. Her button ears are lifted as she listens. She is very cute!

Such a slow slog!

Slowly working my way through my thesis, through the questions I have to prepare for my defence, and through my presentation. I am grateful for the moral support of the pup. I am also grateful for everything that running has taught me. I feel like when you are approaching an aid station in an ultra and you are unsure if you can make the time cutoff but you just have to keep moving forward. Just keep running. Slowly, slowly, slowly. At least my pacer is super cute!

A few more hours and then I get to treat myself to a run outside!

A puppy is sleeping with her head resting on her person's calves, in front of a 3cm thick paper document on her person's lap. Both person and pup are stretched out on a couch. Pup has a short caramel jacket with a white streak around and up her nose and along her neck, caramel button ears, and a soft brown muzzle. Pup is sleeping soundly as her person works on the large document.

Monday mood. Sleepy and snuggly!

My writing buddy is supervising edits while I race towards the submission deadline for my thesis. Slowly, slowly, slowly crawling towards the finish line! #PhDLife #AmWriting #AmEditing

I will celebrate submitting the beast with an #UltraTrail race! I'm officially tapering now! Happy to have my feet up and kept warm! No taper tantrums here! (Ha ha ha, I had my last big double long run weekend yesterday, ask me in a week if I feel the same way!)

Hope your #MonDog is easing you into your week gently!

A caramel puppy is sleeping between her person's calves, with her hind leg and front paw wrapped around her person's grey sweat pants clad right leg with the puppy's nose tucked into her person's sock clad ankle. The person's legs and the puppy are on top of a pile of crocheted blankets on a green couch. On the bottom of the frame, the person's closed laptop rests on top of a wooden tray.

Puppy is lying on her person's calves amongst blankets and chewies, on a green couch, looking off to the left in profile, her gentle brown eyes attentive to something off camera. Just in front of the puppy is her person's editing. Puppy is very cosy and not interested in the writing. Pup has caramel ears, a white chest and ruff with the cutest whorls behind her ears, while socks, and a dark brown muzzle.

Working on the last chapter of my thesis! All the discourse analysis! Pup's only interest in #FoodProcurement is whether she gets more carrots, but at least she keeps my legs warm while I edit and write. Slowly working on the end of this beast!
