    125 pages of Deronda, Romeo and Juliet is finished and The Merchant of Venice started (next is Hamlet) and that's it for now...

    OK....

    Washing is drying
    Cleaned down window in bedroom, all the mould is off and it looks better, had it open to air the room too. Cleaned the sides and the chest of drawers and sorted stuff out and binned stuff that isn't used ever...looks a lot tidier in there now :D

    Got about 50 pages of Daniel Deronda left to read, and have done my debate research which just needs printing. Need to email lecturer and find out how essay is being handed in (online or in person) so will do that now.

    ETA: Finished Daniel Deronda at last! 700 pages of agony finished! Now to read Dorian Gray and The Merchant of Venice AND my readings for uni AND sort out clothes and bin what I don't need/doesn't fit/is tatty

    Sorry for my ramblings....trying not to go to the shop and get choccy and crisps, is so tempting but I know I am stronger than that!

    So, I have finished sorting the clothes out, binned a few and sorted the wardrobe and Kai's into the bargain. Next will be the shoes.....then I might try sorting the DVDs and the books if I can....

    Started Wizard and Glass last night, now about halfway through or so I'd guess.

    Another NSD today, and we went swimming an I managed 2 lengths! I've never been able to do 10m before, let alone 50 so I am really pleased with myself!
