Back Again

Two days in a row, this is good. I was thinking last night that I probably write too much negative stuff, need to be more positive and active! Still sleep was non existent last night thanks to house children's Halloween screaming going on in the back garden until half two. Okay, I didn't get to bed till half one, but still. Was fun seeing everyone's costumes last night out in Falmouth, some really great dress, I think the best was someone dressed as a slightly shrunken pumpkin. And I had some pumpkin pie to eat which was wonderful. I was a pig yesterday: nearly a whole 150g mint aero bar, pumpkin pie and three mini doughnuts, the weight will be piling back, it's taken me over a year to lose two and a half stone, but it could go back in weeks. Bread, water and apples today only. Except it would have been had I not finished off the aero bar for breakfast.
I had a nice long conversation with my mum yesterday, she hadn't rung for a few days so I was glad to hear from her. She may be sending me some chocolate in the post, don't know if that's such a good thing. She and my sister had carved a vomiting pumpkin, pitiful rather than evil looking according to the picture I was texted.
My parking space has gone! I'd found a really nice little side road by the campus to park on, but now I think it has been discovered, even getting there at 8.30 and there is a sold block of cars already, unfair. Perhaps I'll just have to get up really early, oh dear.
Just spotted someone else from the course blogging, perhaps Christina is right.
This afternoon we'll be watching the film we made in our first week based on the story of Giant Bolster, looking forward to that, it will be fun to watch. Some chocolate would make it ideal of course. No! I need to get back to my exercise routine as well, haven't played badminton or tennis for weeks! Or even been swimming. There is a problem at the moment with swimming though as I don't actually have a costume, no sign of anything suitable on ebay, so I guess I'll wait till I get home and go to the nice cheap sports shop. Sadly last night I didn't have my hour of tutoring, the family I go to had forgotten to tell me not to come, so I arrived to find a small skeleton child swinging on the gate and myself in the middle of a Halloween party, which was slightly embarrassing. Some spare time gained, but money lost. Note: try not to obsess about money. Time for a scratchcard tonight I think, a small treat.
