2 days into 2025

It's been almost a month since my last entry. 

I was accepted into the NZBAT course and it starts on Monday (10th February). It is free,  though I found out that I need a laptop that can run Windows 10 with certain specifications, but thankfully Abbie has an old one that meets the requirements. I also need to have my own stationery but that's not an issue. I have stuff leftover from homeschooling Sophie. I won't need to buy much. I also have to pay for printing or photocopying. 

I don't qualify for a student allowance because Paul earns too much apparently. We are just over the income threshold.

It was our 19th wedding anniversary yesterday and I wasn't feeling well with a headache and dizziness etc and Paul wanted to have something different for dinner to celebrate so we got pizza. I ended up falling asleep early. I don't remember the time but I couldn't keep my eyes open. It's the way most nights now. 

Tomorrow is Waitangi Day so it's a day off work for Paul and we will be outside cleaning the backyard area, pruning trees and cleaning the house guttering out.

I hope my friends and family are all well. Thank you for reading!
