Hey hey its OVER!
My exams are OVER! Done! Completed! Written!
What a super fantastic awesome feeling! We survived – me, my kids and parents. We made it
I am very proud of us all. Its the first exams I have written in 9 years. Its the first time my kids have had to deal with it. And we did ok!
Have to mention a few things though that helped me get through the past month!
Coloured Pens – love them. They make my life bright and happy.
Herbal tea – kept me hydrated (and calm)
The Bay – it really speaks for itself
Jonathan – for taking me to watch movies! The distraction was really welcomed!
Sweets – for keeping me energised.
Body Thrills – bath time over study weekends was break time. It was time to relax and unwind. Nothing better than doing it with my collection of body thrills
Mr Roses – for our conversations. Conversations about random stuff but conversations that made me laugh.
Music – especially Harris Tweed, Henry Ate and Alanis Morissette. They block out the sounds of kids and booking tvs perfectly.
My bed -due to the fact that it is mid winter here – THIS is where I have spent my days! 
And of course my friends! who beleive in me! Seriously I think you guys would beleive I could climb Everest tomorrow if I asked you
But it means alot to me that you have such faith in me. Thank you!
Now life can return to normal for a few weeks until assignments start again!
Today I am at maintenance court – hopefully getting final closure on that drama!

Brilliant. We all need to be able to mark off little successes- life doesn’t stop, so it’s good to have milestones. All the best for today- can only imagine that that is an emotional wringer.
Enjoy a (small) breathing space.
