I don't beliiieeeve it! Victor Meldrew could be my midde name...

Shock horror!! We've received a GAS BILL!!! First one since last May... NPower have finally sorted our account (extortionate as it is) and billed us, but only since November! What do I do? I have tried so many times, I have been honest, I have told them exactly when we moved in and the meter readings at that time and they have still got it wrong. Muppets. No sign of an electricity bill yet but we are holding our breath...

Sorry all, I am having a bad day so far... I managed Uni yesterday but this morning my tummy is playing up so I can't go in (will hopefully go for this afternoon's tutorial). Now I have a new note taker who left an irritated message on my answer phone this morning saying that she wasn't supposed to go to my lectures if I wasn't there. I emailed my disability officer to explain that my so-called 'disability' is unseen and that I am perfectly capable of writing my own notes if I am well and in attendance. However if I cannot be there, I need someone to do that for me, it is the whole point of having a note taker at all!

I am beginning to learn how it must feel to spend your life in a wheelchair and have people treat you like you are a toddler/stupid/incapable of doing anything. Hmmm... Rant over!

Other than that, life is sweet... The news in brief:

My Mum is getting confirmed!! All irritation about all of the above goes out the window!! Came as a surprise to me (that is how the Lord works sometimes) but I have been praying for nearly ten years for something like this to happen so very excited.

Tim is in Cheltenham and tomorrow we are taking the legendary G-ma for a trip to the new Sainsbury's as she is desperate to go! Bless her, it is like the highlight of her week! I hope she isn't disappointed.

I have a new project at Uni which requires looking at three generations of my family, which should be a lot of fun.

Twinkle is having her stitches out tonight and her collar taken off.

We are off to the lovely Chris and Aline's for dinner later - people are being very kind and feeding us lots at the moment!

Valentine's day was fun :-) JT cooked me a yummy dinner and we watched Notting Hill (CLASSIC film!) At lunch time we had heart-shaped biscuits and in the morning we got pressies!!
