So near .... and yet so far!

Thought I would touch base with my fellow bloggers.  I have been feeling slightly overwhelmed with the amount of work I have to do in such a short space of time.  I have a plan, but it doesn't fit into the time scale I have left, so I have after much deliberation decided to self-defer until May.  I am fortunate in being inundated with work and as most of us know we have to take the work when it is there. I am currently working full time as a teaching assistant, modelling in the evenings, teaching dance on a Thursday evening and a Saturday and performing in a Motown tribute band whenever I can.
 My role as a teaching assistant is temporary to cover a maternity leave and finishes in March, I am doing all I can to get a permanent job as I love it so much, i.e. choreographing the school musical, volunteering to take after school activities etc., great experience, but all of this impinges on my study time and I feel I am constantly playing catch-up.
I have struggled with the literature review it seems to have taken up so much of my time.  I can't tell you how many times I've written down a really good quote and then struggled to find it later, or I've read a brief synopsis of an article only to find that to read it in its entirety requires me to subscribe at a cost.

Where I am now:

•  I have collated all the data from the evaluations from my students pre intervention  and presented the findings in graph form.
• I have carried out my literature search
• I have designed my survey for Teachers 
• I have prepared the lesson plans for my intended interventions and arranged a further observation lesson post intervention
• I have identified Teachers for my video interview  

I feel the pressure is off for now and I can concentrate on getting my interviews booked in a realistic timescale.
Hope everyone is getting on o.k.
