The usual moan!

I’ve not had a moan yet this week, so here goes!!  I’ve got about 1800 words to go on my dissertation and about 10 days to do it (if I don’t use my extension).  I’ve written an essay plan for the children’s essay, that’s 4000 words and due in in 4 weeks.  I feel like I’m doing my dissertation without any / not much support.  My tutor isn’t very approachable or easy to contact, and when I have emailed her she’s not given me much advice. 

A new friend from church brought me a book to borrow that I needed and I hadn’t even asked her if she had it and if I could borrow it!  I had just said it was on my Christmas list and no one had bought me it.  So I now have her copy to borrow for a couple of weeks. J 

I’ve been pretty tired and achey this week, and not feeling great in myself.  Paul’s definition of making an effort is doing more jobs around the house, it doesn’t involve making and effort in talking to and supporting me more!  He has or is applying for a couple of jobs this week though. 

Would love to go back to bed or have not got up in the first place!  But I need to plod on, small / slow progress is better than no progress.  I rebelled on Tuesday morning and kicked Paul out of bed at 7.15 to sort the children out and take them to school and got up at 9.45.  I should do it more often, but I rarely do. 

I can’t remember what (else) I was going to write now.  So I’ll plod on with my chapter 3 and might come back and edit this later.
