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!

Hahahaha you is a proper student, now, no going to the pub all the time and being on the computer all day..............hang on you already do that, erm well stay in and be sober and give me your beer discount card.;):D

Ha ha, I'd love to read that assignment - maybe you should copy and paste it on here for us once you've done it... :rotfl:

If you can use word, you can use powerpoint - and it's great fun - you can be like homer simpson and do "starwipes" :rotfl: :rotfl: once you've done it, you can play with the timer too - first one I ever did, I started talking and the next page came up, totally threw me, coz I was a page behind and I had to re-start it - I tend to just click to the next one now and do it in my own time...:o

Pigpen - well done on your first day! As DeniseF says - Powerpoint can be fun - particularly the animation

Have a good day ladies

Yesterday was a really busy day in the end. Got all the little jobs I wanted to do done though but havent checked much off this list so far:(

Had my eye test at optitions and need new glasses. chose some lovely ones for £99. with my voucher they came to £30! result! the optition said that the blurrs and lights I have been seeing are definately not eye related and are most probably migraine related. i have been getting more and worse headaches lately come to think of it!

Think I will come home after walking dd to nursery and make a start on the list. need to go to the post office later but want to get some of these jobs done first....

Morning all

Well I went to bed early last night after a very long hard day. We left the house at 7am, dropped DH off at work in manchester and drove down to leicester (arrived 10:30), went to funeral. They hadn't saved enough seats for family...there was about 60 of us ....so me and my cousins had to sit at the side where I was facing my aunt who had lost her husband. We left Leicester at 4:15, went back via DHs work and finally landed at 7:30!! Fed DD, DS straight into PJs and off to bed. I went up at 9:30. DD only woke at 3:30, fed her.

DS was up at 6 with the usual dirty nappy. Anyone got any ideas on how to change the timing of his poops cos he is going to be a nightmare to potty train?

Polka - What a lovely neightbour you are

Valli - fingers crossed for the boiler today!!

Dusty - Hope your DS feels better soon. I also have to take DH to fracture clinic today. Fingers crossed that we get seen soon.

Pigpen - Glad college went well. Stick with the boring bits it'll be worth it.

First day in "work" today and it's not going well. Midnight I got to bed, a friend text me at 5.15am saying he was bored (if I ever meet him in person I'm going to strangle him for the early hour text messages!!! :mad::rotfl::rotfl: ) and I'm exhausted. I scalled my hand Thursday and yesterday it decided to blister and then pop! :eek: It looks worse than it is, but I think I may have to resort to buying some of that spray on plaster stuff to keep infection out. My trousers are slightly too big in the waist and the belt loops are too small to take any of my belts so I need to go out and buy another one! :mad: I forgot to wash up yesterday so we had to have toast for breakfast and I look like a panda due to the bags under my eyes Flying so far as cleaning is concerned is ZERO....I need to do some tonight though when I get in.

I'm having one of those days.... catch you this evening! :wave:
