  • DD finally resurfaced at just after 1pm. Could have spent the whole morning out if it wasn't for waiting in for her. Grrr!

    But she did unload her dirty washing into the machine and chuck the general rubbish away that the KH side of the family gave her. And she has put her lunch plate into the DW rather than abandoning it on the side until I screech at her.


    I've drunk too much tea today. I need to buy more milk, but can't be bothered to change from slippers into trainers yet, or force minion to do it for me.

    Must resist urge to polish things :D
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Thanks Aunty Crafty!

    I've finished!

    Maybe just a couple of tweaks later on. Its not that great but hopefully it will pass

    Back to work tomorrow after a nice and chilled 11 day break, but go back to 3 weeks of heavy revising next then end of may - done for year 1!

    I'm off for some fresh air with the dog then some gardening for a head clear out and break. Then a pamper session, some tea and a later assignment tweak if needed then submit!
