Grrrrrr been doing battle with an OU essay all bloody day! 1200 words now completed and sent off on the topic of Religion. what a flaming trauma that was!
Thats all i've done all day. the Tesco man came this morning so the house is bursting with fruit and veg again. The postie stopped for a chat today. The social work department sent me a letter to number 4 instead of nmber 48 yesterday but becasue i wasnt in he had to deliver it to #4. Knew it was about a job interview but the thing is the old lad at #4 has just died so nobody in that place to get it back from. AGH! I popped a ote through the door cos the postie thought there were sometime speople going in and out (i love my postie!) and right enough someone brought it round later in the day. However, when they said ni the job ad the vacancy was in Dunfermline they actually meant it was in Arndean. no, I've never heard of it either. Niki might have cos apparently it is near Dollar and what with her having gone to the Academy there and all that (it's ok, she's FAR from being your typical private school girl!). Anyway, without my own transport theres no way I could get there and back if i got the job so i emailed them to withdraw my application. bummer.
Oh, had a gorgeous tea tonight. Because I had been studying and writing all day I hadn't eaten much so had loads of calories left over. Chopped up a courgette, a couple of tomatoes and some mushrooms (i can hear Fi doing puking noises as I write!), sprayed them with spray oil and sprinkled a big handful of parmesan over them. Baked them in the oven and mixed them with tagliatelle and a spoonful of wild rocket pesto - GORGEOUS!
Anyway, it's 10.45pm (and not dark yet, cool!) and I have submitted my essay and was planning to have a cheeky wee white wine and soda to celebrate but wont bother now. Going out on Saturday night with some of the girls from Gingerbread, the lone parent organisation. Will save my cals for a fair few vinos that night.
I wanted to go swimming today but decided to crack on and get my essay done instead. Now i can go swimming tomorrow morning and still have the whole day with Alister - grand.
For now though I am signing off to find something mind numbing to watch to wind down the old grey matter after all that swotting!
Big love!
Jill

p.s. just had to add this in so i dont forget to ask him about it tomorrow - Alister was having a dream and was speaking and mumbling then just fell through to my room and sat on my knee. i took him back to bed and he said he wanted to come and see the fishies jumping (????). crazy dream boy.....
