It's been ages since I blogged - apologies. I have been up to my neck in studying and ironing and housework and shopping and work and being a mum and zooming around with alister and... oh just busy really. Since I last wrote I have had my hair cut, had a horrible cold, started walking in my lunch hours, had Martin stay 1 night for the football, been helping Alister learn how to read little words, been swimming lots, ordered a Reebok Rebounder, joined a Callanetics studio, got out of a Church of Scotland child protection course, had a night out with Lynne, lost a few more pounds in weight and just done a big Tesco shop online.
Alll good! Oh and then there's the studying of course. So glad I decided to restart A210 - Approaching Literature (my preferred way to approach literature is using a stealth like ninja warrior type approach so it doesnt hear or see me coming...theeeeeeeen.......WAAAAAAAH!!!!!!! scares the shit out of it every time). My last tutor on it was horrendous. Never answered questions til it was too late, if at all. No support if you couldnt get to tutorials it was really awful. This time I have a tutor who has sent us out notes before the tutorial so we know what we will be discussing and a suggestion that he could pass on email addresses of people who want to form a self help group etc. So much better already.
Been up in Dundee this weekend. Been to see all the grannies etc so job done there. Went to the cemetery today, it would have been my dad's 60th this thursday 
not sure what but I think I will plant something in the garden to remember him by. Actually just been looking online and think i might get an olive tree for it. Sounds cool....
Weight in tomorrow, am hoping to break a stone barrier. Wont say which number but I will be VERY chuffed if i do it!
Fi is coming to stay for a couple of nights this week cos Scottish Gas are doing something at her gaff. Will be lovely to have her stay again and under not so horrible circumstances as last time! That's Tues, Wed & possibly Thu. Alister has swimming on tuesday and wednesday, I have callanetics on thursday, tutorial on Saturday then back to Sunday School. busy busy busy....
Night all.
See you all soon
Big love,
Jill
