The day begins with 2 hours work on OU essay of fucking doom. There will now be 8 hours of doing work for the OU and then...back to that fucking essay. It's only worth 8% of this last module...but involves more work than the 40% big one on the last module.
Fuck sakes.
Between work and study I am now pulling 50-60 hours a week. No wonder my leisure reading pile is getting so high!

Just think of that final degree though.
55-60 hours is average for me.

Got all the way to the Dentist and in the dentist's chair before they cancelled on me due to a staffing issue!
Back again next Friday!

Dentist wasn't happy taking them out without a specialist on site. The specialist's nurse is off sick so she'd cancelled for today..... and it wasn't till I was in the chair that the ducks all lined up that there was a problem.
Person before me had been told 40 min wait so I get the feeling that things were a bit all over the shop there this morning.....
.... and possibly even more so after Liz had been in and had words about the access there!

I am so fucking tired and struggling to write something interesting about Gandhi. You get a bonus hour extra in bed tomorrow night due to the clocks going back (hence this week's thread title). Martin |

Morning All!
This Is Saturday Watch And Smile!
Yesterday: DID NOT GO AS PLANNED! First the dentist cancelled on me when I was sitting in his chair when they realised an additional member of staff they needed wasn't there. Rest of the morning was spent recovering. The afternoon I got into some Epic Collection research and popped some more ISBNs out of the Hachette db which gave us some dates and pages counts. Couldn't sleep in afternoon so got up and did some DW stuff for next week. Got Chinese in for tea to save Liz cooking after doing Oxford & back for J's vaccination, which went well. Then there was a surprise TF reveal. THEN some Epic reprint reveals and a surprise new Epic. And by then I wasn't thinking straight and was so tired.
Today: 8:45 Lie In THANK YOU LORD!!!!!! Hopefully quiet rest of the day. L going out to see a friend in bath but the car wasn't 100% yesterday so we are slightly concerned. Zooming Mum this afternoon, and TMUK Zoom tonight.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray the car works OK and gets Liz there & back again where she's going today. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

First day in 2 months where I haven't got work or study to do. Even when I've been away I've still done online tutorials and/or studied at night.
Yay.
Plans for megawalk scuppered by evil weather.
