    OMG....I've got about 50 "virtual" houses, some as expensive as 750K...well a girl can dream! :D
    Thanks TYO...I will enjoy it as much as I can. :D

    Right, just got a crazy burst of energy. Cleaned the kitchen, washed up the mess DH has made (every pot and pan...:rotfl:), hovered, dusted downstairs, 2 clothes washes etc. :D If only you could harness my productiveness and turn it into money!

    Things may or may not be looking up. It looks as though DH might have done enough to keep his PhD going to the end (fingers crossed) - just has to hear from the head of his floor at the end of the month, but his supervisor says yes.

    I've finished my psychology module and all the resources for it that I wanted to get done. However, I've wasted today seemingly trying to find the feedback for my dissertation - I don't see the point in doing anything until I find that. I might be heading in the complete wrong direction if I work on it because I really don't have a clue what the feedback was. Hmmm... Trying to access my uni mail to get my feedback but it's not playing ball - most annoying. So it looks like I've wasted a day - which is annoying when you look outside and see how glorious the weather is.

    I've always had a bit of a dodgy hip and DH felt it last night. He seems to think it's not sitting right in the joint and is popping out. He want's me to go to the doctors about it. I guess I should really just to be on the safe side. I hope it's not another thing thats gone wrong with me. My body hates me I'm convinced off it! :rotfl:

    DH has his phd review tomorrow to find out if he gets to carry on or not. Fingers crossed everybody. Whilst I want him home, I want him to fulfill his dream more.

    Congrats to my DH he IS being allowed to continue onto his PhD. :D I've managed to book into the doctors for next week to get my hip checked out. Bit worried about what they are going to say. It's killing today. I've got visions of more tests and scans ahead. ARGH, hope not. I might play on Google to see if I can self diagnose, I have an excellent success rate. :D
