Other than that, today has NOT been good. I'm not packed. I have too many things. I haven't got the textbooks needed for my French course. I haven't sorted out possible university choices for next year. My phone suddenly decided to break down and be slow today, and my camera seemed to be having an 'off' day as well. I have one contact in my new address book. I can't find any Nike+ running trainers. I drove all the way to Leamington to find a very poor selection of trainers and sizes. They didn't even have any women's' shoes in my size (8-9), so it was straight to the men's., and they had two pairs which were Nike+. Nike+ is a technology trainer - it connects with a sportsband on your wrist from a small chip in the sole of the shoe, and calculated your speed, distance, time, calories etc. It is amazing. Anyway, they didn't have my size in the one pair, and the other pair were too big and wide. I then had to run back to the car, so couldn't do any other errands I needed to do. Don't get me started on having to pay to park. GRRR.
So today's been so stressful. I did manage to get a few small jobs done - cards to neighbours and employers, washing all my new clothes and sorting out gifts for the girls.
I can't believe I'm leaving in 35 hours. OH MY GOD. Tomorrow, the plan is to get up early and drive to Coventry/Solihull to find some trainers. I've had mine for years now, so they really can't be good on my feet!
My suitcase right now:
I don't need a crystal ball to know that tomorrow will be another stressful day. An early night (12am?!) to catch up on sleep and to be bright and early tomorrow morning. I am physically and mentally EXHAUSTED. :(
