    Right 18 reply slips for Psychology and counting. A few more took the letter today!! :eek. HOD said "you do realise this makes you head of psychology don't you?" :eek

    I'm so tired. Need to wash the pots, sort the washing, pack for xmas do tomorrow and overnight bag (staying at a colleagues house). So I won't be back till Friday when I'll dump my stuff and run off to Wales to see my DH!

    I'm sooooo tired but I'll be up till a decent hour due to my programmes being on - Spooks and True Blood. LOVE THEM.

    Right time to crack on because washing machine sounds like it's about to finish.

    I'm at 23 for Psychology now! Phew...hopefully that will be the end of it. I can't cope with more than that!!

    Right had a wonderful weekend however, it's now time to crack on with my MA assignment which I'm really struggling with. I will get it done if it kills me though.

    Right I feel a list coming on....

    Take some time out from the work if you can.

    Oh I will do...and I know I won't get through that list completely either. But I'd like to get through some of it...or rather I NEED to get through some of it. I can get a few of them done tomorrow and Wednesday. Whatever isn't done by Thursday will just have to wait until after xmas! Xmas is family time!!!

    Right, clearly we are not going on holiday which I'm gutted about and relieved in equal measure....lots to do before I could go away.

    But DH still has his DJing job so thats a bonus. Fingers crossed nothing will change in the coming months. Time to alter my DD into OH's account for paying the bills (I get to reduce it slightly).

    Tomorrow I need to go to the dentist, drop DH's denture into the tech and submit his council tax exemption form to the council so that I should get my reduction through next month! Bonus!!

    Well I've just been to the dentist, all is well (yey)! Dropped of DH's false tooth and got it fixed - for only £20! :j

    Then decided I needed to buy some food because I don't want to drive to a super market with all the snow - streets my way are quite bad. Soooo I went into M & S! Crumbs...it was well scary. Bit like mob rule!!! :eek:

    Still I'm done and dusted now and am off to do some assignment work shortly. Think a spot of sitting is in order first though. Although DH keeps ringing and is trying to get me to go to Borders to pick up some bargains (up to 90% everything as they close today). But I can't go in the car so it's a 30 minute walk there and then back...just can't be bothered.

    I was meant to join him down there today but I just don't want to risk the drive if I'm honest. I'm sure it would be fine but I'm just not comfortable for some reason...so might go tomorrow instead.

    Right time to get a brew, check everyones threads then I might go and do something!
