    Morning all. I had a great sleep last night so feeling a bit better today...its just sneezing, that "I've been swimming and got chlorine water up my nose" sensation, and a sore neck/shoulder which feels like a knot to get shut of now. :D I'm hoping another good nights sleep will do it.

    On the other hand I didn't get any of my assignment done last night as I couldn't read my own handwriting :o I'm hoping with a more awake brain today it will make more sense. :rotfl: My plan is to tackle it in HHS's and in between I'll do some little jobs around the house to complete the lists ;) I've seen what "brain breaks" can do for the kids in school so I'm hoping they'll work for me ;) I have 11 minutes left before I need to start my studying so lets look at this list...

    Morning everyone!
    I didn't manage to get the list done yesterday but I did have 2 HHC's upstairs so, the evening wasn't written off completely! OH out for footie again tonight so, perfect time to catch up on what I've missed. I'm determined to get my first star!

    toots PCOS is polocystic (spelling) ovary syndrome its where your ovarys get systs on them and it makes you bloated and hurts like mad, so far thats all i know because the (had to delete the swear word here) doctor wont diagnise me properly. just keeps giving me tramadol and hoping it goes away.

    tramadol's no good when i need to find a job especially since i signed on for jobsekers allowance and on that money have no idea how we are all going to eat,keep warm and stay housed.anyway sorry for rambling on im just annoyed with the whole situation theres just no jobs

    Morning all! We are just off out, DH is going to tow me in the car to the garage. We've done it before and it was horrible, so I'm not looking forward to it.
    We've got to do a few bits while out, go to Tesco, pick up my prescription and drop some books at the library. Hoping to be back by 12 to finish kitchen list and get the place tidied for my sister to come at 1:30.

    I'm slightly panicing today. Have got too much to do and it's doing my head in. See you all later, have a good day everyone

    In my HHHC(half half hour clean) I managed to:

    Print my German HW
    Order my brothers voucher for his birthday
    Wipe dining room table
    Made the bed because I forgot earlier
    S&S shower screen because I always get conditioner on it

    Got 40 mins before I have to go to uni, so going to dry my hair and sort out my bag.

    Nicki I'll join you for HHS's later on! Going to try to get an essay written today if I can.

    Love and hugs to everyone, have a lovely day
