I Did It

I have signed up for the degree course - go me :)  It's a 4 year, part time, distance learning BA (Hons) degree in photography with the University of Hertfordshire through the Interactive Design Institute (IDI).

Tired dot com

Still so very tired, still not sleeping very well, still getting bad headaches...

On a bit of a downer at the moment and feeling sorry for myself.  I had thought the new meds were helping, but after a week or so the headaches were coming more frequently than before, and more strongly.  I've been reducing some other meds which have been helping me sleep, so now although I am so tired, I just can't drop off.

I'm back to the doctor this week so hopefully she will adjust what I am taking.

Younger son is back at school now after the summer break.  Year 10 so it's the beginning of his GCSEs .  Hoping he will just get on with the school work and fingers crossed that it'll be uneventful!

Horses both doing well.  Hunter has very obviously been beaten in the past and he is terrified of the farrier.  So we are working on his confidence with having his feet touched.  It was so awful to see him so scared but he is trying so hard to trust us.  You can see it in his eyes.  He knows we wont hurt him but the memories must be there still.

I have been debating whether I am capable of a photography degree.  I did start one, well started a module which could have  (should have) been the start of a degree, but "life got in the way".  I have been looking again and have found a part time distance learning one which looks good.  But with my head I'm not sure that I could do it.  Really need a course in self-confidence I think....
