Miserable Monday

 I had a really bad night due to my RLS (Restless Leg Syndrome) playing up. I was awake for most of the night.

In the morning, bleary eyed, I began going over Unit 4 again, but it didn't really go in. I've been trying to memorise the four points of the 'study diamond': Effects, Techniques, Context and Meaning. It's beginning to go in, I think.

I helped Georgie (Simon's Mum) set up a standing order online.

I've got an online class this afternoon: 'Academic Writing' from 16:00 until 18:00, and then Slough Writers from 19:30 until 21:30.

Didn't stay on the online class for long. Couldn't understand it.

Studied some poetry notes for an hour.
