Big Shot

As I sit here I am tired but it's all good as I am tired after a day of being busy :O)
I am almost 100% well again after a small lapse at the beginning of the week when I was so stressed out about a certain person who my life whom I wrote so happily about this time next week. Let's just say they aren't who I thought they were and I am glad I found out so soon rather than finding out down the line after something happened. It just goes to show that some people put on a front and run away from nothing and I am fine about that, it was another learning curve in life.

I had an amazing drive yesterday, I haven't been on my normal 30 mile Saturday drive for 2-3 weeks because of illness and late nights so I was happy to get up not too tired and not too ill so I could have my wonderful drive. There were some idiots on the road I can tell you that and it is a good job I really concentrate on the road because otherwise there would of been an accident one of the times. I can't believe some of the things that people do when they are driving and I had so many people cut across me when I was going down dual carriage ways.
I still enjoyed my drive. I get a strange feeling if I haven't driven for a few weeks - I feel like I may have forgotten something and worry if I should be driving or not but the second I set off it comes flooding back to me and I know what to do :O) I even found yesterday that a couple of my bad habits weren't there anymore and I had some how over come them from not driving which is always good.

Talking about driving, I start my driving lessons next month and I can't wait. I had 19 hours before and when I think about it I think I didn't get a full hour out of those 19 hours so I had less than ten hours. I know people will think driving with my dad is good practice but it isn't because I have picked up so many bad habits it's untrue and I spend a lot of the time trying to avoid arguments with him when he shouts for basically nothing. The only advantage I now have for driving a couple of hours on a Saturday is I am more confident on the roads and whereas before Roundabouts where hard for me I now breeze through them and you should of seen the reversing I did yesterday, I was like an old pro :O)

I've been cleaning all day and the house is starting to look good as I haven't been doing enough time on it so I got up and I did quiet a few hours cleaning today and I only finished stuff about 10 minutes ago before I came on here and started to write this.
I used to spend 30-60 minutes a day on the cleaning until maybe 6 weeks ago and I am planning on getting back into that from tomorrow as you can really tell that I haven't been spending much time on the house and it will take me a while to give it a good once over and once it is clean it will be 30-60 mins a day to keep up with it which isn't much at all. It would certainly help if I didn't have a messy dad and a dog who drops fur all the time.

From now on I need to get motivated as I am weeks and weeks behind on my reading for A207 so I need to work out which parts of that I can leave and what I need to read the most. I would love nothing more than to have the time to read it all but I don't have the time even though I am going to be super motivated and not waste as much time as I have been doing over the last few months. I am going to pick the five most important sections which are about 400-500 pages each and hope I have enough time to get through all that as it is hard going with tiny print and if I get through that I might have the time to have a quick look through other sections of the other books but we will have to see about that.

On top of that I need to catch up with my course work for A217 and work hard on that too as my final TMA for that is due in a couple of weeks and I am hoping to get my best TMA score to date with a Humanities subject.
I missed sending my last TMA in because I got really distracted and then I got rushed off my feet and then I got ill so I got an extension and I did a little bit and I got really ill and missed the deadline and now I will get a lower pass mark on the course which is a shame as I have worked hard and have been getting my best marks to date but I guess that is the way things go. So from tomorrow I shall be going through what I have to get through for my TMA and working out how I am going to go about it and then shall set a certain amount of time aside 5-6 days a week and get on with that and when it is finished I will give myself 3 days off and then work on my revision plan and work for a month on revising for the course for my exam :O)

I need to get more exercise done now too, while I am well I need to work on getting my fitness levels up because they are so poor and in bad need of improving a.s.a.p.
Everytime I work on them I have three good weeks and I start to make a bit of progress and then I get ill again so I am hoping I don't get ill or I am not ill for more than a few days so I can get back into it as soon as I can because I am too unfit. So I hope to get out with my dog at least once a day even if it is only for ten minutes, also I might go out more than once a day and see how things go but it depends on how lazy I am being and if I can motivate myself or not and if it is raining or not. But I think this time my motivation has had a serious kick and I am going to go for it and it will do me and my dog the world of good. - Once a week I am also hoping to get out for an hour long walk as well as the normal 10 minute walk too, that should help build up my fitness levels and get my heart pumping. I am also hoping to go on our old exercise bike once a week, at first it will kill me and I might only be able to do ten minutes but I want to get it up to 45 minutes once a week!!

Well I am hoping Miss Bignell will come up at the end of October, it will be really cool to meet her. I have been hoping to meet her for ages but as of yet it hasn't happened :O( So with some luck she will be up for my birthday meal. Also hoping to hang out for a couple of days if she can get the time off work. I am also hoping Mr Charles can come down for a couple fo days too, it would be great to meet him too and fingers crossed I am hoping my good friend Mr Eds can come up from Coventry for my birthday too. That would make everything really perfect for my birthday if I could have those three in town for that weekend :O)
