@Zoe7 I can't wait to see what you come up with for bookish. Smiley Happy

So...the DBT meeting isn't about anything super important, just...how exactly do we do this entire adventure? Smiley LOL

My thinking was that we would simply follow the manual. I mean, it basically tells you what should be done/taught in each week. I was thinking that we would do a little bit each week (i.e. not the entire "week" in a week - if you know what I mean!), but that over the space of 2-3 weeks (or however long it takes), we would cover the week's content. I am imagining that the "24 week" schedule will take around 12-18 months. Does any of this sound even remotely like what you guys had in mind @Zoe7 and @CheerBear?

I'm wondering if you are feeling overwhelmed because you are imagining a much shorter time frame @CheerBear??? I'm a turtle. I'm used to things taking a trillion years longer than they are "supposed" to. I'm wondering if you have maybe dived in as energizer bunny when your batteries were at full capacity and then as your batteries have worn down a bit, it has all started to look a little daunting???

I guess I have a dream that by the time we finish this project (however long it takes), we will have made the entire skills component of DBT available for free here forever more in Forum Land. Hence why I'm in no rush...but then, I am the turtle who took five years to complete her 1-year honours degree. Smiley LOL

What do you guys think???
