    Yeah, well when you've spent all summer contemplating about the general direction you are heading in and how you are going to achieve that through various channels to find that it matches up nicely with this part of the course :j:j :D:D

    The dissertation however is a different story :( There is a big meeting on Wednesday about that, fingers crossed I get the same tutor as the last two years as I really don't do well adjusting to new people :o

    Come here and I'll give you a hug:D:D

    Dont worry its not what it used to be. So you aint missing much.

    Phew!
    Please feel free to skip this post

    I'm usually a very strong person , I've always had to be but I'm not feeling very strong at the moment and I am finding each day a struggle to get through . I know I am lucky I have a family but losing my nan has made a massive hole in my life, my days revolved around being with nan and now my days are empty, nan was my nan my mum and my friend and I miss her so much it hurts :(

    Special hugs. I always think that to have someone so wonderful in your life makes you very lucky but it makes it so hard when you loose them.

    Time does help, but bereavement support is very helpful. In the meantime, you we are all here for you x

    OH has been up on the flat roof again today - yes it us becoming an obsession - if its been dry for several days he is mowing lawns, if its been raining he is on the roof :)

    there is an electric connector which works the outside lights and he suspected this was an issue so when he seperated things it was well and truly corroded so he replaced it and tidied everything up again - so that combined with the down pipe blocked by next doors builder, water cascading off the main roof directly onto it etc caused our electric to short out while we were away :(

    so at least that's one job sorted out

    The other day I was wondering about your flat roof....:o
