Oh my God

Got a message from S re a blog made - seems like many moons ago - a while ago. Thanks S. I will take your advice.

Anyway I just realised how long since I had last posted here. Not that I think any one reads this any way.

Had a fantastic time in Gran Canaria. Hotel was out of this world and weather was fantastic. We will definately go back . We would have liked it to be this year but D is due an operation and would not get medical cover this year so we might try for next year (2009) if we can get Insurance.

Christmas came and went with friends here for a change. Lovely to be under no pressure and everyone mucking in. Lots and Lots of wine drunk. and more and more and more wine drunk. Oh and we had xmas dinner too. Due to not boats, friends trapped for a few days but it was great fun.

New Year was supposed to be quiet- ha ha. Ended up going to a ceileigh. Fantastic night.

Finished my module in time to go out for a family meal ( before they went away). Unfortunately had a horrendous time trying to submit it. Ended up in many tears - and I dont cry gracefully, I do the full red eyes for a week and snot all over the place. Something to do with the broadband link. S, H and others picked me up and sorted me out. I got it submitted next day from the local library. Managed to miss the meal but made it in time for drinks. mmmmm not like me.

Even managed to pass the module - not a great pass bit a pass all the same.

January flew by. maths NABS ( I got 100%) so it looks as if I have a chance of passing the exam in May. Actually I am really enjoying the maths. Not something I thought I would do but hey it just shows that what you were interested in when you were young ( eg boys, drinking and Kissing) might not interest you for the rest of your life. I am not saying what does not interest me now - you guess.

Went to London in February with friends on a girls weekend. Terracotta Soldiers, Tutankamun, London Eye, Mamma Mia etc etc. Apart from the travel to get there which was horrendous ( a very long story) we had a fantastic time. Complained to BA about the outward journey when I got back and we each got £100 compensateion. Not bad considering the return flight only cost £89.00.

Back to work on Uni work. Growlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

Had bad news, bad news and bad news. " close friends died. 1 sudenly and 1 expected but still heartbreaking within a couple of days of each other and then D was offered a fantastic job, which would have meant a move far away. After the deaths we decided life is too short to take the "money" option and we decided to stay were we are and D stay working for himself. Many tearful nights later I got back into the Uni mode.

THEN I heard that my frend A who is the other scot on the course had bad news herself and probably has to defer till next year. My thoughts are with her and I miss her like hell but we are in contact most days and things are begginning to clear for her. Hope she is back soon.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

that means I am back to work on the Uni stuff. Counting the days now.

I have done the second cycle and got all the feedback sorted. Just need to analyse it all and put it all in writing. Easier said than done. A few ethical issues have arisen which I have to fend off but all seems to be going okay so far.

Well now I am up to date with things I will hopefully get back to posting regularly.

Always full of good intentions thats me.
