Yeah I'm the same but determined to remain happy! Have been looking in to the open university and thinking about doing a degree in my spare time, still very much thinking about it though.
It's really miserable here :( what about Wales?
Same here, a windy, damp, dark day here - makes me fee like hibernating.
The OU is great! A few of my family have obtained degrees through them,
I think you have to be quite self motivated to make sure you do the work.
Which subject do you fancy?

Definitely accountancy! I want to try and get myself in to the finance department at my work and I deal with them everyday already but most the people in finance have degrees in accountancy so I think it would increase my chance of getting in. I'm a determined person so I know I can do it :)
My fiancé has 2 degrees both with the ou. It's pretty exciting :)

Go for it!
Sounds like you already have a head start so I'm sure you'll you be successful.

Second lesson in ten minutes time.
But it's with my good friend Zac, so it's cool.
Your ant problem can be dealt with by the anteaters in The Cold Dark Room.
Enjoy your relaxing morning and have a good day. :)
I love those anteaters around here! Thanks for pointing them out.

Oh, don't really want to, but it's so scandalously and deliciously late, I have to get busy with my chores. A lot to do this w/e. Oh, but my cat-Maxi just came and is "nesting" in my bed, getting ready for his long nap. He loves to curl up on my pillow so the side of my face leans against his back. I can feel his purr on my cheek, and then his the sound and movement of his breath. Next to being with my sleeping children, this is the best thing in a worldImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1446914695.206801.jpg, here he is, my sweet boyImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1446914789.969758.jpg, Here he is with my youngest-Konrad,ImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1446914857.401861.jpg . Wishing everyone a great day. Oh, John that dog's face is soooo cute

well thats the last time (until next time) i work around fibreglass without a mask and overalls :( , oh my it was and even after shower still is itchy scratchy! i can honestly say it gets everywhere! I recommend getting rapped up like an eskimos joy department!

mum suppled cups of tea and roll 'n' sausage:) , was working with off cuts so its patch work, and it was tighter than a flys bottom up there! however, progress made...
