I had a good day yesterday. My Mum came over at 1:00pm, and we ate a nice lunch. Afterwards, we all went to the nursery, and Carter loved it! He ran into all the rooms, and played with the toys. He also made a girlfriend, and he did not like one of the girls there, so deceided to push her off her seat. From Jan, he will be going there 2 afternoons a week.
Today, my confimation letter from UCAS came through, with my Soton rejection on it! Martin's grandad also came over, and gave us some money.
That's all I have to report...
Going to have some booze later, and play some games.
Bye

Went to Tesco today and brought all my Christmas food, and other stuff. I also brought my Mum's bloke, his presents. Tomorrow, Martin is going to Nottingham, to get our Marks & Spencer food. YUMMY  The only thing left to buy now is booze.
Feel a bit hung over today. Drank quite a lot of wine yesterday, and now my head is pounding.
Today, I'm making a roast dinner, Chicken, roast tattys the works. I can't wait to eat it, as I'm so hungry. I am hoping it will soak up the booze.
After tomorrow, UCAS will be closed, and I can't wait. During that time, I will be able to relax, unless of course, I get another Unsuccessful from George's, tomorrow. The way my luck has been going, I would not be surprised in the slightest :roll:
It is Martin's and my anniversery tomorrow, 3 years together, feels more like 30 at times :wink:
Bye for now, my bloggy

Just sent Martin to Nottingham to pick up our M&S food. I have also sent him to get a bottle of Champagne, as I drank one of the bottles, yesterday :twisted:
3 more days left until Xmas day!!! Can't wait
Nothing good came in the post, today. As long as there is not another rejection, I will remain happy. I don't think I could cope with 2 rejections, in a space of a week, especially with Christmas coming.
Going to drink my coffee, and watch some Christmas movies :wink:

I had a really great Christmas! I got up at 7:30 on Xmas day, which I felt was a bit early, however, when Carter saw the stockings (no not mine :wink: ) his face lit up. We opened those, after a cup of coffee, Cart's had to open his first, then he helped us open ours :roll: Afterwards, we opened the main presents under the tree, I got a diamond bangle, some smellies, CD, DVD's and Chocoloates, which I loved. Carter got a tool set and a Thomas the Tank Engine train set, which was by far his favourite present. When he saw the box, he got really excited, which was nice to see  We had a really nice dinner, it was the first time I cooked a Christmas dinner, and it tasted great! I also drank loads of booze, Champagne and white wine
Felt rough when I woke up on boxing day, Champers give one a terrible headache. My Mum and her bloke came round at 1:00, whereby I was given loads of presents! Clothes, make-up, wine glasses, chocolates. Carter received a remote control car, Martin is playing with it as I'm writing this :roll: , Cars, Spelling and music thing. I felt guilty only giving my Mum 4 presents, but I suppose Christmas is not a competition.
Today I will be doing nothing, as usual. There is no football on, which is fantastic  Might have a wee drinky later :wink:
Bye

Bored once again!
Martin went back to work yesterday, and now I'm back in bored mode.
I spent most of yesterday with a hang over, so ended up sitting around and not doing anything productive. However, today I will be doing some OU work, and Tae Bo. I think I need to exercise my Christmas dinner, as well as all the booze I drank, off.
No good post has come through the door. I was hoping a check for £100000 or to live free for a year. Oh well, I will have to settle for a Gas bill, and bank statements :roll:
Bye

I have been a naughty girl, by breaking one of my New Years resolutions. I found myself drinking a few glasses of white wine, yesterday :twisted: Oh well, sod it, it's the only pleasure I get at the moment.
I have been so lazy since xmas. I have hardly done any work, even though I know I should. I promised myself I would do some today, but instead, I have been watching films on BBC1.
I received an e-mail from Caroline at SGHMS, in response to the one I sent her before Christmas. She told me that I will know whether or not I have an interview or have been unsuccessful, late Jan, so that's something I suppose. I'm hoping my luck will change this year, considering I left the last one depressed.
Martin also sent me an e-mail, 20 mins ago, saying he was coming home, as they have been let out of work early, which is nice...
We are taking Carter to a birthday party tomorrow, at Bills Fun Shack. It is the little boy next door, Birthday, he is going to be 2. I'm not sure how we are going to get there, as we don't have a car and by the looks of things, we will have to catch 2 buses and then it's a fair old walk. To be honest, I don't want to go, as I don't really talk to the peeps next door, so I won't know what to say.
My Mum is coming over on Sunday, she has brought Carter a coat from Next, and wants to give it to him. To be honest, I think she is only buying him loads of clothes, so he looks good for Nursery next week.
I'll get going.

I am not feeling at all well today, so Martin has had to take the day off, in order to look after Carter.
It's Carter's trial run at Nursery today, he is going for an hour in order to get him used to the place, before he starts properly on Wednesday. I really wanted to go, but feel that rough, I had to get Mart's to take him instead. I hate feeling like this
UCAS is back up and running today, so now I am back checking whether or not Georges have rejected me :roll:
The birthday party we went to on Saturday was really good. There were lots of little kids running about, and it was the first time I ever spoke to our neighbours. They were really nice, and gave us a lift home at the end of it. Martin and I then had a chinese, which was yummy, followed by lots of booze
My Mum did not end up coming over on Sunday, as she is also unwell. She sounded really bad when I called her, so I think she will be coming over next week.
Doctors is finally back on tv, so I guess I will be watching that.

Martin has been off all week, as we have both been ill  When he rang up his team leader, yesterday, she said she wanted a Doctors note. However, unless she is going to pay £10 for one, she can get lost!
Today I am feeling really well! My Mum is coming over later, as she wants to give the Cart his coat, and Thomas the Tank Engine DVD (that should keep him out of the way for a bit).
It was Carter's first week at Nursery, and he loved it. His first afternoon was Wednesday: 1-6. When he arrived, he did not give me a second thought, as he ran off to join the other little people. So I went home and had a relaxing afternoon, although I must admit, I was bored without him moaning at me. I picked him up just before 6, and was told he was really good, and dressed up in pink girls, high heeled shoes :lol: Friday was much the same.
This week I received my gas bill of £115!!!! Then this morning a leccy bill £30. BILLS I HATE THEM :x
Today I am relaxing while Martin cleans the house, and it's about time!
I still have not heard either way from St Georges, however, I'm trying to keep positive.
I better go and get dressed...

I havve got a cold, nnnnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooooo!!!! Not after being so ill last week! To top it off, Carter has got an eye infection, hence, will not be able to go to nursery until it clears.
I rang the doctors this morning, and the earliest appointment they can give me is this Thursday, so I am having to bath the babes eyes in salty water. He looks like someone has punched him in both eyes, poor baby! Yet he is being really good about it.
I have made a massive decision today. Instead of moving my whole family to King's Lynn, for nine months, I have decided to go there by myself and rent college accommodation :? I decided this, mainly as I don't think I could afford to move twice in a space of 9 months, pay for removals, rent and deposits, as well as other hidden expenses. Now I have to find some money to pay for my rent, and I might have to get a part time job when I am there to pay for other things. It has been a VERY VERY hard decision, but I will do anything, in the name of getting into medical school.
I still have not heard a peep from Georges, but as I was told in will be late Jan, I'm not too bothered...
My nose is so sore. I was up most of the night, sneezing and thinking about whether I should take a gamble and move to King's Lynn. Martin is still a bit unsure, but has given me his 100% backing.
I need to do some OU work, but I can't be arsed at the moment.
I will make myself a coffee, and then think about getting stuck into my work.
Bye
