Yes, it is a lemon-coloured eskimo! [album 128913 071105embr.jpg] Or maybe not 😉 I’ve got the day off work today – I was owed some time from ages ago when I had to work during the weekend, so I thought having a long weekend after my exam would be an ideal way to use it….
Well I did start out with great intentions of getting back to work on one of my many half-finished cross-stitch projects, but as always, digging through the trunk was fatal, and the temptation of starting something new became all too much. So I’ve now got yet another project on the go. It is quite a…
Just for Kimi and SWAAM 😉 Um, ok, now I’ve got to think of something to write about to justify the title, which given that I wrote my last entry late last night, and pretty much all I’ve done since then is sleep, could be a bit tricky. I didn’t even dream anything interesting. Oh…
Finally got that Spanish exam out of the way (I think it went ok, but I’ll reserve judgement until I get my results in December) today, so I’m now feeling at a bit of a loose end. It’s not that I’ve got nothing to do, so much as that I’ve got a huge list of…

Final exam for Spanish tomorrow, so I’ve spent the week embroidering 🙂 Actually, I have been studying really, but I’ve done a bit of embroidery now and then when I’ve needed a break, and I managed to finish the last of the kittens (complete with progress photos, but no guessing game, seeing as I’ve given…

My turn to play "guess what I’m cross-stitching": [album 128913 301005embr1.jpg] I haven’t been doing any embroidery lately (yet another hobby to fall by the wayside while life has been busy), but yesterday I’d been studying for most of the afternoon (only one week until my big Spanish exam!) and wanted to do something other…
Shocking, I know, three diary entries in nearly as many days, but I’ve actually got a bit of time to breathe this weekend, not having to worry that I should be spending every spare moment on study. We spent last night listening to Radio Shropshire. That might seem like a bit of an odd thing…
Actually, it’s more like shock, joy! I actually passed my oral exam!!! And not only that, I actually got a good mark – 92%!!!!!! I’m still convinced they must have made a mistake (or marked very generously), because I know how badly I performed in the test, but I’m definitely not going to complain! And…
