oh dear - well i've done my shopping (get to lidls was short this week) but still have £27 in there - for me i'm down to pennies by weds in the bank until a sat am, plus my tax credits were spent before I realised I had them (major panic sunday night! lol)

life is good today - wonder what nasty things XH can think of to wreck it!

you will ag.

bit distressed at my tutor now thou - have sat and read his comments - is it always worse cos they write in red or cos of what they say? I had the basics right, and met all of the criteria but it still feels like he's pulled it apart - then again he said it was v good, maybe my own standards for myself are too high - as in if it doesn't come back with a perfect score and only grammatical errors I get disheartened. (always have been like that thou)
