    How annoying! I have been trawling the internet for almost an hour now trying to find some good documentation to support my findings so far for my dissertation. The first was great until I realised it was an article from a book and I couldn't access it all (have found it at the local library so will be going there tomorrow). The second is a load of educators journals which would be perfect but I can't access those either so have emailed my tutor to ask if the university have a login. Hopefully he will get back to me soon. Oh well, back to the grindstone :eek:

    I am grateful for:

    • being able to walk by the seaside everyday (or waving to Serena when she's stuck on the ferry in the Channel with her school group)
    • fab RL friends
    • fab virtual friends - this is an incredibly supportive thread with everyone cheering your successes and hugging you when you are low
    • being debt-free (not rich, but debt-free)
    • a sister who is my best friend
    • being able to laugh at myself
    • going on hols on Thursday for two weeks

    Hangs head in shame as has done no flying. DF cajoled me into going clothes shopping straight from the school run. I've bought lovely new undies and we had a great time so that counts as a Pollyanna moment.

    Still on the Pollyanna Subject I've got a girls night out tonight and DH is coming home to put the LO's to bed AND he's going to do the school run tomorrow morning so I can have a few drinks tonight.

    Cat is standing on the keyboard. I must go and feed her then I'll tackle todays list

    Greenbee thanks for the Sandy update.
