The Worst Witch 21-04-2020 03:57 PM

Alright I think. Would help me if my tutor would confirm when the thing is actually due, it's hard to plan and meet deadlines if you don't know when they are!

How are you?

Shirayuki 21-04-2020 03:59 PM

Hope they confirm it soon!

I'm alright, you?

Shirayuki 21-04-2020 04:01 PM

A friend of mine is trying to send me a song that I don't know but she's not succeeding XD

The Worst Witch 21-04-2020 04:23 PM

Meh, feel a bit crap.

I hope she manages to send it soon!

chinahorse 21-04-2020 04:26 PM

Boofle is a sort of knitted dog-bear teddy thing. It's a range of greetings cards and associated merchandise.

Urgh working without a deadline is awful.

Shirayuki 21-04-2020 04:32 PM

Sorry about that The Worst Witch x
Hope you feel better soon

Oh

How're you Lillie?

chinahorse 21-04-2020 04:53 PM

I'm so so. In pain and am fatigued.

Cacoethes 21-04-2020 04:54 PM

We've all just been tested for covid :/

Shirayuki 21-04-2020 04:56 PM

Sorry your not to great Lillie
Hope the pain goes away soon x

How're you Beckie?

Cacoethes 21-04-2020 05:58 PM

Been better but I'll live
How are you?

one_step_closer 21-04-2020 05:59 PM

I made a few things up at uni!

Are penguins your favourite animal then Lillie? Try and take it easy now if you can.

Fingers crossed everyone is ok Beckie.

Shirayuki 21-04-2020 06:32 PM

Hope things get easier Beckie <3

I'm not even at Uni and I've still made things up for classes XD

one_step_closer 21-04-2020 07:10 PM

We'll call it using our imaginations. :-)

Shirayuki 21-04-2020 07:15 PM

I use my imagination a lot in english :)

How are you?

tamobhuuta 22-04-2020 10:22 AM

Good morning everyone. What are you up to today? It's another sunny day here. I'm looking forward to watching Doctors.

one_step_closer 22-04-2020 10:28 AM

Morning Tamo. How are you doing? It's sunny here too although doineedajacket.com told me I did need a jacket because it was cold but I could have done without one. I might try and make sweet pizza today. Do you have any plans other than watching Doctors?

Cacoethes 22-04-2020 10:49 AM

Morning guys
I have a medication hangover. Need coffee!

tamobhuuta 22-04-2020 11:03 AM

I have never had a meds hangover...

Osc: Just every day stuff: mindfulness, prayer etc

The Worst Witch 22-04-2020 11:09 AM

Morning guys.

tamobhuuta 22-04-2020 11:14 AM

Hi WW, how are you?

The Worst Witch 22-04-2020 12:24 PM

I’m ok thanks Tamo. I managed to catch up on some sleep last night, woo!

How are you?

tamobhuuta 22-04-2020 12:43 PM

I'm ok. Finally got dressed!

one_step_closer 22-04-2020 02:15 PM

Afternoon, now.

Anyone doing anything fun?

The Worst Witch 22-04-2020 02:20 PM

I’m reading harry potter. I should be writing my report(s) but I’m not feeling very motivated.

How are you Lindsay?

one_step_closer 22-04-2020 02:26 PM

Do you have enough time to finish them? It's ok to take a break.

I'm not sure how I am. Had a shower though. I'm thinking of making sweet pizza if I can be bothered.

chinahorse 22-04-2020 02:28 PM

What is sweet pizza?

I was napping with bertie but have been woken up twice now. Once by my mum dropping my freezer food off and once by a delivery driver. Am consoling myself with biscuits.

The Worst Witch 22-04-2020 02:34 PM

Yeah, ones due in on Monday and the other isn’t due in until the 11th of May. Just finding it hard to study at home, too many distractions! Plus if you’re in a library everyone else is studying and its easier I find.

How annoying Lillie! Was it at least a nice delivery?

chinahorse 22-04-2020 02:40 PM

I'm the same with studying. Find it really hard at home.

It's a side table.

chinahorse 22-04-2020 02:57 PM

Just got cozy and doorbell went again for the wardrobe. This nap is not ment to be.

Shirayuki 22-04-2020 04:06 PM

Maybe you could do what Gru does?

one_step_closer 22-04-2020 04:10 PM

Are you expecting any more deliveries Lillie?

Alison??? (sorry if I've got your name wrong), can you have background noise or something playing while you're studying?

Sweet pizza is just a sweet pizza base with Nutella and whatever sweet toppings you like. It was kind of a failure anyway. At least I tried!

Shirayuki 22-04-2020 04:12 PM

It seems interesting Lindsay, (if you don't mind me using your first name!)
What happened?

A friend of mine told me to listen to You're Worth It by Cimorelli and I loved it and thought I should pass it on
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGZq9QdEMOA

one_step_closer 22-04-2020 04:19 PM

Everyone is welcome to use my name.

The dough I made didn't cook right and didn't stay like a base it crumbled up. But I'm just going to eat it with Nutella and caramel chocolate.

Not into that sort of thing Rose but thanks for sharing anyway! How are you?

Shirayuki 22-04-2020 04:21 PM

Oh well, you tried!

Ooh caramel chocolate!

Sorry ^^"

I'm ok, you?

The Worst Witch 22-04-2020 05:04 PM

You were right, it is Alison. Yeah, when I go to study my flatmate is very good for turning down the tv and things, and nagging me. Its easier with the door closed, but the cats have started bashing their heads against the door to get in and I worry they’ll end up hurting themselves.

Shirayuki 22-04-2020 05:06 PM

Sorry it's so hard for you study Alison (if you don't mind me using your first name!)

Have you tried listening to music while working? I've found it helps me so I was just wondering...

one_step_closer 22-04-2020 05:58 PM

You could create a library-like environment somehow.

The Worst Witch 22-04-2020 10:25 PM

It should be easier tomorrow, I have online classes from 9-4. I’ll put low music on in the background for when tutor isn’t on video chat, that’s a good idea.

Thanks for the suggestion Rose!

chinahorse 23-04-2020 06:38 AM

Morning guys :-)

Bertie knocked my tea over my crochet project. So that will smell delightful until I've finished it and can wash it. But he brought me his fav toy to say sorry. And one of my new plants got a new flower!!

The Worst Witch 23-04-2020 07:48 AM

Morning guys

Naughty Bertie! Although he did say sorry :P. What are you crotheting?

chinahorse 23-04-2020 08:00 AM

He then spent the next 20 mins play attacking me.

A blanket. It's always a blanket.

The Worst Witch 23-04-2020 08:03 AM

Aww, Soot does that to flatmate all the time. Its dead cute, I’m glad he’s still got a bit of kitten in him. I’m getting broody for more, but 3 cats is probably enough to be getting on with.

Cool! I’ve always wanted to learn how to crotchet. Is it difficult?

chinahorse 23-04-2020 08:14 AM

I'm broody for a kitten too. As a colleague was getting 2 but now is getting one and is trying to convince me to have the other.but I'm only allowed 1 per my tenancy and my landlord lives downstairs.

It's easy enough, much easier than knitting. I learnt the basics off a friend and the rest off of YouTube.

The Worst Witch 23-04-2020 08:32 AM

Cool! Theres a crocheting group in my town, I shall have to investigate once lockdown is over. If that ever happens!

Are you up to much today? My classes are gonna start soon, should see if my laptop survived the tea Junior spilt on it last night!

chinahorse 23-04-2020 08:48 AM

I hope the restrictions start easing soon.

Eek! Fingers crossed the laptop is ok.

Nothing planned today bar showering, washing bed linen and putting new bed linen on. My mum may be getting me cat litter. If not I need to go get some as its desperate to be changed. That pretty much it.

tamobhuuta 23-04-2020 10:42 AM

Hi everybody. I slept better again, thanks to PRN. Today I am making mushroom pasta for dinner.

The Worst Witch 23-04-2020 11:00 AM

Morning Tamo

Mushroom pasta sounds nice. Flatmate absolutely hates mushrooms though (says they’re slimy and horrible) but I don’t mind them. I hope you enjoy it.

tamobhuuta 23-04-2020 11:02 AM

Thanks. Some people are weird! I hope you enjoy your classes today.

chinahorse 23-04-2020 11:48 AM

It's the people who like mushrooms that are weird!

tamobhuuta 23-04-2020 11:51 AM

There should be a global survey on it.
