It's Growing...

Things have been moving along very quickly over the past week or so, getting very exciting but also really quite scary. I have begun the process of contacting organisations and individuals in Honduras and the response has been- mostly- very positive. Very encouraging.
However it is now only 6 weeks until we leave and there is so much to do. I'm really not sure I will have the literature review done- I have a good grasp of it now (I hope) but it's getting larger and larger. I also need to spend some serious time getting to grips with the methodological aspects of the study, develop some questionnairres and think about how I'm going to manage the data as it accumulates.
But more than the workload, I'm starting to worry about the size of the study question itself... as I talk to more people and read more it just seems to grow. There is potential to take this beyond Masters level, and I have had some encouragement to do that. Its defintely something I would be interested in doing... but I'm really not sure how that would fit in my life plans- or my husbands- and whether I want to commit several years of my life to it. At this point I think I need to complete the Masters thesis. After the fieldwork I will think more seriously about where I will take this.
