My daughter got her first provisional acceptance to Uni.  Not totally unexpected, but a relief all the same.  :)

Finding out yesterday that I really am finally going to get the training I need to know how to do my job!!!!  I have been so stressed 'cause I got thrown into the fire this week, without having been given a chance to learn & absorb all the knowledge & info I need to do it properly.  I am so relieved!

Drinks after work yesterday with colleagues, and coming home to my lovely husband waiting with my supper on the table. ;D

Jessie's class had a secret santa thing going on so I bought the little girl Jess chose a puppy pregnant plush doll called "Puppy surprise" On the box it said in big letters "Mummy is expecting!"


First day back to school this mum goes up to phil and said "Tell Alicia she jinxed me"

They are expecting another baby ..they found out the day before christmas

They sky outside my flat window didn't get completely dark until 5pm! This is a huge improvement from before I went home for Christmas and it was dark at 4:15!

FIL and I took the Christmas decorations down today, I cleaned the house, got most of the laundry done and put away and I don't have to cook because we are doing fish and chips tonight.  YIPPY!!!  It has been a productive day.

Another productive day here!!

Put Christmas away.  :(

But then sorted through all my shoes and bags and separated them into keepers, rubbish, and charity-shop donations. I got rid of 14 pairs of shoes and 12 bags!!  ;D

When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.
