  • night night nicki sweet dreams ;)
  • Evening ladies,

    Well I have been searching Right move! very much a waste of time, but hey I can dream!

    I haven't done much today, went into work and finished moderating, which was good, but came back so tired and fell asleep - I do that alot I think there is something wrong with me.

    any how I managed the rats tonight, yea! and moved the two older ones in to a different cage, one is quite ill, but is responding to the meds.

    I also hoovered - exciting evening here I tell you! and phone three of my friends ( I think we can see were my evening went)

    anyhow tomorrow its a trip to homebase and some gardening. i got my new OU course books today, looks good bit worried about the workload.

    And if anyone sees me here tomorrow night tell me to get lost and sort out my post and school stuff!

    have a good Wednesday(already!) xxx
