Struggling with a cold, the blues, the cold weather and studies.

Visible to anyone in the world

It was such a bitterly cold day today,  that I shivered when I woke up, the weather had turned much colder. I had a runny nose.

Never mind I soon warmed up as I did  quickly my daily house work routine. This included Sweeping up, Washing the floors, dusting and polishing.
All this made me feel a bit warmer. However I still wore 2 leggings, 2 jumpers and 2 pair of socks!

I Stopped to have a coffee mid way through and a snack of Croque monsieur(with quorn sausage in) and
a fried egg. I am not Vegan but I try to be Vegetarian whenever I can. By the afternoon I was a lot warmer.

I then got down to studying. The politics of language and Creativity in a Globalised World.
Chapter 4. Language, Creativity and the politics of Value.
Last week I had enjoyed chapter3 Creativity on sale.
It was a very interesting.chapter.

I read a portion of the chapter today and I wrote down notes in my digital notebook.

I am so amazed that I have even come this far in my degree.  After everything I have been through, bereavement (my sister), family illness, looking after my son and the latest rising costs of living, which is very hard and crippling for me.
Well, I suppose that is the life of a student !

Unfortunately, I don't seem to be having all these great fun parties that everyone is supposed to be having!
