pandopI am not sure how good an idea this is, but several friends have been on at me to get a LJ, so here I am.
This year did not get off to a good start, so I made 2 resolutions:
1: Sort my health
2: Keep in better touch with people
This LJ is part of resoultion 2. Mostly I will be talking about my degree - MSc(Econ.) Library and Information Studies, distance learning from the Universtiy of Wales Aberystwyth - and my crafting, which at the moment is cross stitch and knitting.
I have not done any study yet this year, as I have had real trouble settling to it, but I need to get a move on with it, finding the motivation is hard though. I seem to finally be getting some support from work though, which makes a change. Pity I am not getting the same support about my health - especially as they are the main cause of some of the problems.
Craft wise things are a little better, as I have done my first stitching of the year (card for my Mum, pic to follow) and have signed up for Yarn Harlot's Knitting Olympics, for which I will be making a scarf. I know this doesn't sound much of a challenge, but it is three thin scarves that are to be plaited (Platied Scarf from Home by Debbie Bliss), and I do have to study as well. Not to mention I am still a very new knitter.
Healthwise things are looking up, as I have seen the Doc, and started Yoga. I have also lost 1/2 stone since the beginning of the year (not in a healthy way, but lets gloss over that).
Thats all for today, chores and study are calling.

I did my librarianship at QMUC in Edinburgh but due to them bing useless and library work being waved under my nose I left with the siploma. One day I shall do the distance MSc through Aber! Oh yes! From what I see you're being taught all the traditional skills that opther unis are utterly bypassing thus leaving us desperately learning to be librarianss by doing it! [/rant]
Anyway, hi, nice to see another fellow library geek! and hope to see you in the 'Loos soon!
