    shoulder is in agony i have barely slept because of it ...taken so many pain killers i pity my kidneys and liver ...another week till i get my results in though ...but have been reading a bit more about it all ...think i will now wait till i find out what the results are


    hey penny i popped into the bank that i use for normal banking and to be honest they wernt too keen ...i think it is cause i have a few accounts with them ...will try with the royal bank maybe ...

    well i have been busy doing papers and reading ...i am down to my last two to be written for this week ...but i think i will take one of my sickies for tomorrows class as it is the class i dont like (that gives me another week to do what is needed) so then i just have to write one for thursdays class ...

    i have decided on what to do with one of my big essays that i have to do so i am getting excited about writting this one...i am looking forward to getting my teeth into some studying ..

    mil still in hospital no sign of her getting out yet ..

    Sorry to hear MIL is still in hospital.

    You're starting to sound a lot more organised with the coursework.Once you're caught up it should be easier to stay that way.

    Hope MR ELANTAN is behaving himself.

    Oh El, if you're crying with the pain, uni comes second, sad to say - thats completely incapacitating. Good luck with the dr today, let us know how it goes when you can.
