    Back.. desperately in need of a cuppa.. and I was SO bored it is unreal....... I have covered everything discussed today during other courses.. I was almost asleep after half an hour this morning.. and concentrating on not wetting my pants tonight as there were about 400 fish tanks all bubbling away making me wee!

    Don't have to go now until Wednesday and it has to get more interesting it just has to!
    pmsl ........!!!!:rotfl: :rotfl: Fish in tanks are meant to be soothing and relaxing - not putting pressure on you!!!!

    hope college gets more interesting so you can get your mind off your bladder!!!!

    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Photogenic I've been Money Tipped!
    Stopping at 23000 left unread in my ISP email. I'll spend 15 minutes clearing some more out tomorrow. Found another one from ex in there! He knows I don't use it so I've emailed him asking him to change his contact details for me!!!

    Right, mad dash around and then to bed for me. I wanted to be in bed by 9pm, 10pm at the latest!
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Blinkin eck, just looked online as I have to renew the childrens passports and it'll be £46 for the youngest and £72.00 for the eldest.:eek:

    I'm so "glad" you mentioned this as it made me check mine and DD's renewal dates ... both next year, so if we want to go to the US .. we need 6mths on them .. so that'd be next month then .... hey ho ....

    I haven't been flying a lot today, work getting in the way BUT:

    3 loads of washing done ... 2 dried .. 1 about to go on the line
    All ironing done ... just about to finish off the putting away -- dull, dull, dull
    Quick dust over master bedroom (unheard of)
    Table cloth washed ... mate dropped wine over it on Sat night ... how inconsiderate! She did catch the other half glass though :rotfl:
    DW put on, put away, reloaded
    1hr of filing :rolleyes: .... more to go .. lots
    Started to dust hall and stairs .. lost interest.

    Tomorrow is going to be a "better" day flying wise .. oh and treating wise:

    Hair cut
    Eye brow wax
    Monday's list
    Tuesday's list
    3 hrs o/t
    Menu plan
    Tomato cultivation
    Make tomato "sauce"

    But, the bit at a time is SO working for me :beer:

    We also have to do a 10 minute presentation on a support agency.. easy peasy.. I can do that with my eyes closed.. wonder if I should learn to play powerpoint.. might be a hoot if nothing else.. I've never played with that before.. but if my 7 year old can use it I'm sure I can master it between now and christmas!
