WOOHOO!!!!

WOOHOO!!!! earlier today i was jumping up and down like a demented elephant LOL...Was in shop when youngest came home from school and when i got back in he said he had news for me...Though uh oh what now, as you do, LOL...He said it's good news and he had a HUGE smile on his face...He's only gone and passed SQA access 2 in his french :o)  Well i started jumping up and down and hugging him and screaming with delight...Thought sod the neighbours <G>...Explanation for those who aren't living in Scotland (the best country ever <G>)...SQA is scottish qualifications authority...Standard grades are equivalent to GCSE's, Highers are equivalent to A levels...I had never heard of the access level before youngest started some this school year...Access is below level below standard grade...There are diferent gradings within access and am not entirely sure how they work but i presume similar to standard grade in that 1 is highest level...With access level they don't sit an actual exam but are continually accessed throughout the year...At youngest review back in march i got told he wouldn't actually be graded this year because he was too young...But at parents night back in nov the french teacher had said if he was going to be 14 before end of may then he would...Well he is and he has been and he's PASSED :o) ...Oh am so chuffed to bits for him i really am...This is a child who had previous SEN school got kept on same maths book for almost 3 years...NEVER got allowed to use the intelligence he quite obviously had...Old school started having problems with him and i kept saying to them he is BORED...You know am so pleased for him i could dance a jig naked round the block ROFL...Now that WOULD defo scare the neighbours...

Sorted my problem i had last night thanks to a very nice man :o) So cheers Stuart...The colour scheme was NOT tory colours though thank you very much TUTS...I never have and never will vote tory...It was LILAC...Might change to the patriotic ones as they are gers colours <G> Hmmmm rangers blue & white with a hint of red sounds nice to me...

Yesterday met a pal in town for a coffee and ended up shopping YUK...She persuaded me to try find sandals i had seen on telly but it was her who ended up with new stuff and me with nowt LOL...Do need to go shopping withdaughter for either a gold/beige evening bag or silver posh, dressy stilettoes...She has posh gold/beige stilletoes and a silver bag we just need the opposite go with whichever she likes best...Or as i said whichever is cheapest <G>...All her jewellery is silver so silver shoes seem better option...Yesterday evening she spent the whole night writing out and illustrating sayings she had found online...Will leave you with the one i thought was very apt and something we should all do...

Count your RAINBOWS  not your thunderstorms
