study

Study is the word for the week. With the two youngest kids receiving their exam dates this week, GCSE and AS levels and Alice spending every waking moment finishing off her Graphics coursework. She hasn't even begin to finish off her Health and Social Course work yet. And on top of that I have my coursework from my ILM diploma that is ongoing. What busy brain boxes we have! LOL

Missing Sarah terribly. Just had a nice little chat to her, it is good to hear her voice. Every now and then I really need to hear her voice, it is not enough to converse by email or facebook or skype. All of these are great for a quick chat whilst we are both in the middle of something, but it is nice to sit and chat about your day sometimes. She is pretty busy with study and work but thankfully has sorted out the contract for her new living arrangements for July 09 when she has to leave halls.

Andy is losing so much weight we will have to buy him some more jeans. He has plenty of tops because they are easy to buy, but for jeans and trousers he still needs to go to the big man shop. He is down to 25stone now, nearly 10stone lost since September which is absolutely brilliant. He was really chuffed that he got to the 25stone mark for his 40th birthday last Saturday.

Below is me with my neice Abbie. She has just had her adenoids taken out and grommets put in her ear. She can hear really well now and says we are all too noisy which is quite funny. She has also lost one of her front teeth (she is 6yrs old) so poor love has been through the ringer this week.
