One down...

Well, it wasn't as great or as long as I wanted it to be but I've turned in my initial write up!!  I had it in my confused little head that I needed to write my entire lit review for this first submission.  It took me a few days to realize that this is a developmental process and no one is expecting me to have a completed lit review right now!  The plan is to do incremental work on this and submit it every one-two weeks....at least I hope my chair(s) think that's ok.  Onward and upward!
