Overload!
During break I thought a lot about the lesson plan I would like to write for this class. I have, to date, 14 post-it notes, 2 notebooks, and 3 pages of last week's newspapers, all with notes about things I could do for this assignment. The problem? I can't decide which one to do - or, more to the point, I can't decide which one is doable. I'm at that stage where "a little information is a dangerous thing." I get stuck on one idea; move to another; don't like that one; retrace my steps on the first one; and then think - perhaps taking a break and having a glass of wine will help. Five days and five glasses of wine later, I'm still no closer.
What's the problem? Are any of you experiencing this? I've finally decided that there are so many possibilities, some of which require more knowledge of handhelds than I've been able to stuff into my head - that I get stuck and get frustrated. So, my job for tonight is to choose one plan and go with it. Don't let those eyes wander to post-it note 12 or page 17A of last Thursday's Weird-Herald. Save it for summer which, amazingly enough, is only 10 weeks away and always offers time for reflection and renewed vigor. And whatever happens, don't cork a bottle of wine!
