Yep a few trauma's along the way T. All done now, she is now doing a PGCE because she wants to teach post 16 students with disabilities/behaviour issues basic skills e.g. maths/english/life skills. She has her placement in the special school and her place on the course. It just has to be funded now ....... she will carry on working P/T, that keeps her in the style she is accustomed to
we just provide food/rent/warmth and of course LOVE - ah I am a very proud Mum My dress gets another airing next Thursday at her grad ceremony - her BF's is also the same day at the same time
so both families (never met before) are meeting up for a meal after so looking forward to it.There is a pheasant strutting around my back garden and next door's cat is just sitting there sunbathing and watching it - the cat is old so probs cannot be bothered ......
have a good day everyone and thank you xxx

Fantastic that she has a good plan of action - what a great career choice and one that she will obviously thrive at! People don't choose that route unless they have a real empathy for it...... NO wonder you are sooo proud of her..... Hope your son gets to know what he wants to do in the same way and then there will be no stopping him....... Glad the dress is getting an airing - it needs to - simply stunning I say..... Are you still enjoying conso??? Can't believe it's only two pounds away for me - feels kinda surreal - will be grateful to Dr Dukan for ever and ever - never felt sooooo in control of my eating and aware that the journey is for life for me not just for Christmas!!! LOLOLOL xxxxx

Wednesday 4/7
Unfortunately a housework day - washing, ironing & cleaning weather rubbish again so its not like I can sit in the garden. Going to get it done quick then I can carry on with my necklace. My MrR is having a good time in the USA weather there is hot! I am missing him but the house is quieter without him! Tomorrow I am in work all day for staff development, we have 3 training days in a year and we have to go to them. Usually so boring you want to nod off so lets hope tomorrow will be different.
menu: muffins, chicken & salad, chilli & cauliflower, 40g cheese, melon

Saturday 7/7
Good day yesterday a few jobs done, more today before fav sports start .......... might just get some washing dry if this blue sky I can see stays around for a bit. I couldnt get to sleep last night took ages and had to get up at 5.15 to drop my daughter off at work. Came back and went back to bed, managed to nod off and got back up at 10. Would have felt as rough as a bear's bottom if I hadnt gone back to bed. Lovely day yesterday doing a few jobs and watching tennis and the TDF with my son ........ spoke to MrR yesterday 104 degs in Philadelphia yesterday and the forecast is the same for the rest of his stay, arrives home on Wednesday
muffins, dry fried egg & toms, roast beef, chilli, 40g cheddar, yoghurt, salad, apple

How do you know about bears' bottoms?? And you had me going there with your TDF for a moment - I've only just learned what TDM stands for (Train Driver Man)! I agree with you about Murray, but then my 10-year-old is fed up of me always being so negative about any Brit's prospects in any sporting event, and I'm old enough to remember Virginia Wade winning Wimbledon in Silver Jubilee year, so you never know...
Enjoy your day! (I have school summer fair, probably in the rain, 1 - 5pm GRR) x
