Well here I am yet again, it's 10:30pm on Saturday night and I am so tired. I was going to go to bed but I don't like going to bed at this time so I thought I might as well do something so here I am writing this weeks blog.
This week has been so busy, I had a TO DO list at the beginning of the week and I didn't manage to complete it all. There isn't much on it to be honest so it isn't all bad which is something. I did get something out of doing a TO DO list, I got a lot more done than I would normally and I was a little more motivated than what I am normally.
I got everything important done and I did get distracted a few times and wasted a morning here and there and one afternoon but I think that was just tiredness taking over.
I liked being busy, I could be busy a lot more because I do have a lot to do. The only thing about working so hard during the day is most evenings I am too tired to go online (MSN) and talk to my friends. I've barely talked to Caroline for the last two weeks so I need to get online this coming week at least a couple of times, also emails during the day have almost stopped whereas there have been times in the past when we have swapped up to 50 emails a day. I can't do that anymore but a few emails a day would be good so I need to find time to do that as I have missed the randomness of our chats over the last few weeks.
I have got my theory test date through. It was booked online on Monday evening and it is on the 28th November and I can't wait, well I can but I want to sound enthusiatic about it hehe. It could go either way, a pass or a fail, it all depends on the day what questions I am given. I have a CD ROM for my theory and I did have one for my Hazard but can't find it. I have been practicing my theory daily and got 32/35 and 30/35 but I have gotten 28/30 a lot of times and seen as 30 is a pass and 29 is a fail I need to get my act together and revise more. I am doing 40-60 minutes a day (except today) and I will increase that next week and maybe do some in the morning as I sit here and check my emails and eat my breakfast. I can't find the Hazard CD but Caroline is sending hers up so I can practice with that because I will have the biggest problem with that I am sure.
Caroline passed hers last Monday so well done Miss Bignell :o)
Today I got some nice things for my birthday. I kept changing my mind about what I wanted off my dad and got a CD and then today I went out and I got a massive cup and saucer tea set from BOOTS. The cup is massive (the biggest cup that I have ever seen) and it had a tea infuser and loose tea in the set as well as two ginger biscuits which were eaten by my dad and the dog and I got a bite of one. It is well cute, it has pink hearts on the cup and saucer (not too many).
I also got a NIVEA gift set that has a shower oil, a body lotion and a lip care thing in it and then when I was looking at the products I found a gift voucher for nivea body care so I am happy though I rarely use nivea body lotion since I found an amazing one by another brand, but I will still use the voucher I am sure. The next thing I got was this candle set, vanilla candles, on a ceramic tray thing that is painted bronze. It looks amazing and smells amazing and I can see me not wanting to light the candles lol but that would be a waste not to use them and just having them looking pretty in my room. The next thing I got was a nice comfy pillow from BHS, they are £10 and I got one in Jan this year and just fell in love with how comfy it is and I love my pillow so I wanted another one because my other one is getting thinner and I wanted one for when that gets too thin.
I still have something else to come, I want a stereo of some sort for my bedroom but the one I wanted is sold out in all the shops :o( so I will wait and hopefully not pick something else because I need one as the one in my room really needs replacing because it doesn't work as well as it should and I love listening to music in my room.
I bought some Christmas cards too from BOOTS. A nice pack of 5 charity cards, I will need more but I g0t them for my closest friends as I don't have many of them and I loved the cards and also some money goes to Cancer Research so that makes them even morespeciall. Charity cards were on offer today so my dad ended up buying a pack too because they were two packs for £4 or £3 a pack so we saved £2.
I need to get wrapping paper to wrap my presents too and gift tags, ribbon and bowsAlsoalso need to get some of those gift boxes and shredded colourful tissue paper because I have a gift for someone that I want to put in a box to make it less obvious what it is hehe.
Driving today was hard, my dad's car keeps playing up and does things that makes it hard to drive. At the moment the heater doesn't want to work all the time and comes on and off as it pleases. So I drove to clitheroe today and waited for my dad as he went into the butchers and as I was sat there all the windows steamed up so I tried wiping them with a cloth and they kept steaming up and when my dad came back I started the engine and nothing worked so I was forced to drive with all the windows steamed up and can you imagine driving and not being able to see anything. At first we had the windows open but it was pouring with rain and wasn't helping at all so we closed them and the misted windows got worse so I was basically driving blind. I couldn't see where the lines where on the road or if there were any cars in front or behind and I was driving so slow. I managed to see shapes of buildings and some how managed to find my tIrn i need to take to get back up on the fast roads back towards blackburn. I managed to get onto that road without hitting anything and I couldn't see a thing, a few cars passed me as I tried to keep in lane even though I couldn't see anything at all. It did get a bit better after a few minutes but I got to a roundabout and only realized just in time to get in lane and break enough, it was scary. It cleared after about 10 minutes but the first 4 minutes were crazy as I couldn't see a thing. I think my dad needs to get a new car or something because it was too dangerous today and I could of hit another car or run off the road with not being able to see a thing.
I shall be bakinChristmastmas cake this week, actually two. I think I am making three and one willhalvedlfed so four people end up with cake. I was going to make four but it just costs too much in the end to do everything and to be honest I should of done them first week of this month but I have been rushed off my feet.
I shall be making home made Christmas puddings too which are the best, I will eat them because I love them but I won't touch the cake because I simply can't stand it lol. I spend weeks making them and looking after them and then I don't want any of them because I don't like them lol.
Christmas I don't know what I am doing, for years now I have wanted a full on famChristmastmas with all my family here and I do have the chance to invite everyone this year but me and my dad aren't sure about it. I have thought about it and it would be nice but cooking for 12 people is hard work to say the least, last year there was 5 of us and that was hard enough because we make a lot of home made stuff so we are always having to be in and out of the kitchen and I don't know if I want the hassle to be honest. I know that sounds bad and heck no I don't want it to be just me and my dad but there are times when I like to be alone. I know that sounds strange but I am strange lol, it's just that I am so used to being alone and even when I crave to spend time with others I also crave to be alone. Maybe that's just how I feel right now but I can see how the day would go because my brothers children will want to be at home with their gifts and not wanting to be here. Hmm maybe I will just invite my mum and step dad and brother again because then I have people here and company and then they will go and I can be alone so best of both worlds. I don't mean it in a nasty way because I would love to have company later in the evening I am sure.
One Christmas, maybe next, it would nice to have all my family together and have a mealChristmastmas day. Maybe we could book intrestaurantrant or something or a hotel for Christmas, something like that would be utterly amazing and something I should suggest because if everyone is up for it we could book it and pay for it throughout the year.
I may have mentioned what I want Christmastmas already but in case I didn't I am after a TV/DVD for my bedroom so I can lie in bed and watch a DVD or put my TV etc. I know I have my own living room and TV but it would be nice to have somewhere to go other than my living room and watch TV and maybe one day cuddle up with someone special and watch a DVD. I want to make my bedroom more homely and my dad is going to have it decorated and have a new carpet put in and I shall put the rest of my new furniture in the room too and put my new mirror up and fix my other that'shats on a broken stand. With a TV/DVD in there and a computer it would be amazing and with the new stereo I can see myself spending too much time in there lol.
Well I think I have gone on enough now, have some more things to do online and I might wash up and clean the kitchen before I go to bed so I don't have to do it tomorrow. I have an assignment to do for my business studies course tomorrow Ind i am not looking forward to it because I know it will take me all day (and maybe some Monday) and it won't be easy and will require me to look over a lot of the material again.
Oh another present I got is the new Scissor Sisters album, bought it on Play tonight on my dads account and shall have it next week.
Also bought sChristmastmas presents online this evening, still have loads more to buy.

Wow, I'm not the only one who makes major long blogs. Hehe. Though I'm not surprised that you do too. :) :p
50 e-mails a day, that is a lot! Even if I typed all day, I don't think that I'd ever get to writing 50. *lol*
Awww, I think that it's nice that you have so much Christmas stuff prepared already. Buying stuff for your friends, it's nice. :)
And the Christmas cake, yum, yum, can't you bake me one!? You must be nuts for not liking it. :p I don't know what you put in it, but 'Christmas' and 'cake' are two of my favourite words, so obviously it ought to be something good. :) Hehe.
By the way, why do you say 'Christmasmas'? *lol*
It'd be cool to go to a restuarant for Christmas, at least it'd be different. However, there's something about celebrating Christmas at home, it's much more cosy and Christmassy.
That sounds awful driving like that, and dangerous. Hope that you won't have to experience a such thing again. Your dad needs to get his car sorted or something.
Good luck with your driving test, it's really awesome that you're taking driving lessons. :D
hehe I like long blogs, this is my online diary and I can never just type a little hehe
With 50 emails it isn't long ones like comments on Myspace that you and I do. It might be like 2 lines long, they are never long. The first ones are sometimes longer but they are normally short ones.
now we rarely get to talk as I don't spend as much time at my computer as I try and keep myself busy with course work or other things around the house and I am missing talking to her but with being busy it's hard to email during the day but I will hopefully get to talk to Caroline online on Wednesday :o)
I have got most of the gifts I am getting, just about 4 more people to buy for and some smaller presents for my mum and dad now I have their main ones.
I will have to post my friends presents the Monday before xmas to make sure they get them in time. Caroline is spending xmas with Rich and his family :oD
I baked a xmas cake today and have one more to do this week and 1-2 next week. It smells nice in my house now but I really dont like them.
It would cost me a fortune to send you one of these cakes because they weigh some much. To send one to Pete it costs me £10 and that was before the postage went up so it might be more now :oO
I think my dad needs to buy a new car and he can't afford at the moment. It was so hard driving like that and lucky for me it hasn't been that bad since but it is very dangerous I know :o(
