    Officially worried now about tomorrow's exam - really hope I can answer the questions and then life returns to some sense of normality by lunchtime. Can't wait!

    Looking forward to lounging around tomorrow evening relaxing instead of thinking about studying

    Decided to do a bit of cleaning this afternoon so a little bit is done and less to do at the weekend and at least having one clean room is more calming at this anxiety raising time!

    Well I did the exam and its all done for the next 4-6 weeks as I have a rest before starting some work on the dissertation in the summer. Went so so in the end as a few obvious questions didn't come up and some much less obvious ones did. But hey never mind its over and done with.

    Popped into town on the way back and treated myself to a few nice things as a reward for the first year being completed.

    Decided not to have a drink afterall as flet very dehydrated after today so drank a lot of water and then had a hit chocolate and will be off to bed for a rest shortly after I woke up every hour last night thinking it was time to get up and go. That exam has been on my mind a lot!

    Really nice to sit here and not feel guilty about not studying and just relax!

    Well I'm up and stuck some washing in to hang out before work today - just deciding if I have time to nip to the shop before work to collect some picture frames - should do.

    Slept very heavily last night as the exam nerves and anxiety washed away. Still have a head full of fog though!

    At least I can think about what I want to do this weekend
    Catch up on the cleaning
    Take the dog for some nice long walks
    Go for a couple of runs
    Do some yoga
    Gardening
    Out with mum for nice lunch and wander
    Potter about and relax!

    Little bit of productivity tonight of washing up tea pots, eating a proper tea, bringing in all washing dry and framing 2 pictures to hang tomorrow.

    Still tired out from all the study and can't quite believe the first year is done - that went very quickly. Back there again in Oct/Nov time for the final year push for completion and relentless study and assessment. So for now will relish the rest as before I know it I'll be back there and in the thick of all this juggling again!

    Bit of holiday stuff bought too and just deciding what to do tomorrow. A little lie in I think for the first time in ages then a run!

    Thanks Lula!

    Well framed the 2 pictures, ready to hang tomorrow and bought a new frame for the other picture which I had to squeeze it into and take apart and it looks not too bad as its an arkward shape

    Also rescued plenty of plants from the reduced sections to plant tomorrow a shrub for £1 instead of £12 and all it needed was a good drink of water and lots of bedding plants for £8 instead of £16 plus some half price seeds from T+M for next year so all ready to go for gardening session tomorrow

    Oh dear, 3-1 now looks ominous to lose in the final

    Not much else to report apart from bought a some new seat pads for the kitchen chairs which were half price and are nice and cheery plus a cushion pad to make use of a cushion cover never used which matches the LR and will sort all this out tomorrow

    12mins to go in the football - off for a little weep, its a bit like watching Eng play so stress inducing!
