Brain function

I have now been in my PhD program for about six weeks. Although some people may not understand this, I felt so much at the beginning as if my brain really was clouded. I'm not sure what, perhaps still recovering from having my baby (although that one seems more like an excuse), maybe from being tired and stressed, or even a mental block on my part. Whatever it has been, I have felt it lifting in the last couple of weeks. My mind is clearer, my thoughts are clearer, I am comprehending what I read and hear in class. For quite a few weeks I was feeling like I wouldn't ever catch on. Things are looking up and I think I may be able to get through this. Whitney has been wonderful to help out and take on dealing with me (that in itself is a chore). Ok, so off I go to do some homework!
