so what has been going on in the last month.
well if i am being honest failing my masters has depressed me a little and i have been struggling a bit. shorter temper and being shirty being the main outworking of this. but i am working my way through it. there are so many good things in my life that i cannot ignore.
Oliver and I are going on really well although he has been away for three weeks one of which in the US so could not talk to him but thats fine he is back in the UK now and will be back in Cambria next friday.
we did Skelton show last week which went really well i am sure it has done loads to help rise the cafes profile in the community which is always good. and it was wonderfully sunny all day got a little sunburn but there are defiantly worse things in the world lol. although some of the young people may not have thought this since they where more burned than me.
this weekend is the last cafe of the school year i can't believe it i have been in this job for a full school year and i love it so much i am so looking forward to next year and all the new challenges that it has to bring.
but between now and then is the summer holidays with holiday club, chris and i are doing the coast to coast walk, soul surviour and another two weeks holiday at the end which i don't have a plan for yet other than that i am going to please my self during it.
so many wonderful,wonderful things to look forward to can't wait

life is good
life has been a little hetic over the last few weeks but not in a bad way really. although could have done with being less tired to attempt to do my assinments.
but there you go.
the most exciting thing about the last few weeks has been may day we took the cafe down the the penrith carnaval and the young people served food to the public. it was cold wet and quite good fun. i hope the next show we do cafe in will have better weather.
there are lots of ideas for the next time as well.

camp/easter
Been away on camp for a week with the local schools workers and their young people. some of whom are my young people to which is nice.
I took the cafe to it which worked really well as a suppertime activerty I was very. I took loads of games and the wii for the young people to do while they where hanging around in the evening.
I ran baking workshops through the day and then used what we made as the supper food which also worked really well.
the camp itself was great it was wounderful to work with so many gifted youth workers and young people. and it was really really nice to be around people my own age for a while.
did cafe yesterday which was amusing since I was completly out of it soooo tired. i was a completely useless youth worker but the young people understood and so did the volunteers who where fantastic at helping get everything set up.
another amusing thing was that i ended up baby sitting at a friends last min last night the kids where all in bed so it just involved lieing on the couch and watching TV. i haven't babysat for years and years which was what amused me.
today was the easter service being easter sunday that would make sence really. it was a really great service some wounderful symbolisum and great celibration music. Reminds us of how good we have it with God in our lives.
I went out for lunch and am now just hanging around thinking about doing some cleaning.

STRESS!!!
last few weeks have been really stressful! which is life but there you go. went down to DMU for one of them which could have been better concidering the large amount of snow the inapropreate footwear and other clouthing not suited for snow. my cousen put me up on her floor which was great and we had some really great nights out the lectures themselves well went about 50 50 as to good and bad which is okay i guess but all very tiring.
oh lost my purse on the last day as well big stress.
back up and back into work and i got the essay back it did fail which is was exspecting but it failed by more than i was exspecting! this is because they have decided that they in their infant wisdome are not going to make my essays with my dylexica in mind. we will see about that believe me!
this is not mentioning the brocken computer! the one mum sent me without power cables that she later sent my brother with and told him to set up but he didn't so i found out that it was the wrong keybord and i needed a driver for the wireless thingy on my study day arrrrrrrrg.
but now its all sorted have a desk top for the first time in a very long time which is kinda nice.
and i am really looking forward to this week in work.
there have been good things about the past few weeks as well like the new members lunch on sunday it was really nice to see a few of the other people who have joined in the church recently. i should really think of a few more good things but can i be bothered not really.
love you all
