    Oh well - I guess it beats the dog eating my homework.

    Don't seem to be able to get very motivated tonight - or this afternoon - been crashed out on the sofa - very unlike me.

    OH and I trying to come up with some kinda cunning plan - this being apart thing sucks - he's much better at it than I am - he sees the long term - I just see all the negatives.

    Oh dear - having a bit of an eeyore moment. Better go off and eat worms..........labelling the freezer cheered me up - how sad is that. Will post up my weekly tea list to keep me right this week .

    Saw a gannet on the beach on Saturday unfortunately it was dead, but immaculate - made me laugh thinking of putting it in the freezer - but of course didn't - they are so beautiful though - and enormous!!

    Away to check banks - think up reasons not to do any work tonight - need to stay up late to collect my brother from the late night boat from Aberdeen - gets in at 11ish tonight. He's up for a week or so for work - so that be nice to see him - last time he came for a week - he stayed nine or ten months:rotfl:

    :mad::mad::mad:ex husbands - holidays :mad::mad::mad:

    seemingly sheep are more important than children - grr grr grr - ex just changed all the easter plans. Seemingly he is lambing at easter this year (I seem to remember it happens every year??)

    Luckily I never rely on the information I am given regarding my kids holiday plans - isn't it:D

    The man's a word that rhymes with boron.
