T-Bird Anni Rides Again

April 1, 2008

and now for the rest of the day

We declared it too nice to be inside this morningn so took our books, 2 camp chairs and some warm woolies and basked in the spring sunshine in the back garden.  The wind was a bit brisk, hence needing woolies when we were sat still, but once we got going with a spot of gardening, we warmed up.  She romped through 12 pages of Miquon Red, it really is too easy for her all of a sudden, it’s mainly revising odd and even and doing simple sums at the moment so I want to push through it quickly before she declares it too boring (sigh)  She also did several pages of Starter Stile, that looks to be getting easier all of a sudden too, I think there has been a growth spurt of the grey matter!

Anyway, schooly bits done, and some attempts made on the garden, the weather turned yuck so we headed inside fast.  She decided some TV time was required so I snuck off and attacked the TMA.  Then made pasta bake for lunch (I do wish I could find a low fat version of pasta in cheese sauce that had anything like a decent flavour….) and, as it seemed silly to have the oven on for such a small bowl, I made carrot and apply muffins too!  you know, i can almost declare them healthy, wholemeal flour, carrots, apples, oh, but then there’s teh 1/3 cup of sugar and 1/3 cup of oil….. well, healthy-ish then! 

i made a brief attempt to get Aprilia’s printer working but alas it thinks it’s out of ink (it’s not, it has a continuous ink system) and I can’t beat it into submission so that’s a job for Duke then! 

I finally finished the TMA after a few more asaults on it and got it sent quickly before I could be tempted to mess with it and "improve it worse"  It’s not terific but it has hopefully answered teh questions this time! 

And now I’m about to play hunt the phone.  I’ve no idea where it is but it’s obviously under something as it’s somehow got turned on.  Who on earth thought that cordless phones were a good idea for this house I really don’t know……. 

one down…. one to go

Filed under: Uncategorized

parts of my TMA that is.  part one (worth 2/5 of the marks) is done as much as it ever will be although I’m not sure I said anything useful - 500 word text analysis for which you need to include things like original language, historical setting, who wrote it and for who it was written before you even analyse any points and closely reference the text (so fill it out with loads so quotes)  I’ve never gone over a word limit before without cheating and putting extra spaces where i didn’t need them……

Part 2 is for later, but not too mcuh later cos I have to sent it TODAY!!!!!  Thank goodness for electronic submission, I have til seconds to Midnight to submit it!
