    I got to 53% of the second question and gave up to watch tv and drink beer with DH instead. And now to bed. Would be happy to get one done tomorrow....that should read today. Yikes. Shopping trip with the girls first though.

    Right, home from shopping...with a dress and accessaries - although I still need shoes. It's time to be thinking about marking again and I'm REALLY not in the mood. :(

    Only finished off that question that I couldn't get through last night. It's done now so it's 6 questions done and 9 still to go. :) Getting there! I need to do 2 tomorrow and 2 on Thursday to keep on target for where I want to be. We shall see.

    Going to sort out my updates tonight because I'm not quite in the mood for marking.

    ooh GFH just pre-empted my question :D

    can't believe how disciplined you are being with the marking. It's bad enough doing my school marking, I really couldn't imagine taking on extra work. I've spent what feels like forever trying to catch up on my KS3 marking now that I have gained time, and it still feels like I have tons to do. Damn mocks and past papers for exam classes lol! Exam marking on top of that just doesn't bare thinking about
    know thyself

    Can't unfortunately because it's not on the website. It's a strapless green print maxi dress. This is the bracelet I bought to go with it though.... http://www.riverisland.com/Online/women/jewellery/bracelets--watches/brown-wood-and-bead-plaited-cuff-601336 And these are the ear rings.... http://www.riverisland.com/Online/women/jewellery/earrings/brown-wood-diamante-hoop-earrings-602697

    Ming...the earrings look awful on the website. ICK. Nice in real life though. Just hunting for shoes now.

    Feeling your pain on the marking. The last time i did it DS1 was 7 months old and i spent most of the time knelt at the coffee table using my leg to jiggle toys near him while trying to mark.

    It was hard work. :D

    Think of the money sweetie, and you will get through it. ;)
