Feeling the Pressure

I attended at least a portion of all three web conferences this week, and everyone appears a bit tense.  As I know is the case in my house, I suspect many of my colleagues are suffering from exhaustion, frustration, and revision anxiety.  In some ways, the web conferences exacerbated the problem, layering one set of responses onto another until most were not sure exactly what information applied to their efforts and what did not.  However, between conferences, many of us communicated privately with our professor and/or our IA, so that by today most of us have some obtainable goals.  Life outside of Lamar has made the going more difficult for some than others; so, I feel blessed that my support system is still intact as we move forward into week 3. 
My observations from the conferences:
1.  Answer all of the questions for the reflections specifically
2.  Put a page number on every citation
3.  Check all headings
4.  Focus on the specific assignments

Off I go into the next week.  Hopefully I'm moving towards the right path at a pace that will land me in the target by Week 5.
