    2. get all work paperwork organised as I'm now on the road
    3. revise thoroughly for my exam next monday
    4. spend at least 4 hours at the allotment, even if it does rain
    5. workout to the wii every morning (tues - sat)

    That took a while but was still less time than I thought! Also got a wash in, my wm takes over 2 hours on the shortest cycle(!) so that should be out about 10ish!! thank goodness none of the neighbours came out while I was cleaning the kitchen window, had to do it sitting in the sink! Havent been in my house long, so the fridge was still pretty clean. Anyhoo, tomorrow should be a breeze as i changed the sheets on Sunday morning. Should really spend the spare time revising.
    Have a great evening all, and hugs to all who need them (((())))

    How can an exam go on longer than planned, surely if it is a 2 hour exam then that is what it is, 2 hours ??

    Or do you mean it started late?

    Longer than I'd planned is what I meant. Some kids with disabilities are allowed 25% extra time - that is obviously 30 minutes on a 2 hour exam. I happened to have a student on my own today, a lovely lad, but I didn't know in advance that I had him today.

    Really cold after being at cricket. They lost again but DS2 got a great wicket and DS3 got to play as they were a man short and he is short.

    Just making a cuppa, OH home so he can put DS3 to bed and I'm determined to get the family room hoovered.

    Vacuumed all floors (needs doing just about daily as have a dog and 4 cats!)
    Fed said dog and cats
    Done 1 load of washing
    Took son into school to do his last AS exam and then picked him up (and 2 friends) again lunch time.
    Dug some more of the veg patch
    Planted out some bean plants (french/runner), which should have gone out a while ago as they had gotten rather big to say the least, but they're in now.
    Watered plants in greenhouse
    Seen to the chickens which includes letting them out at 6am, watered, fed, collected eggs and in just over an hour i'll shut them up for the night.
