Where's My Mojo?

I've lost my motivation to finish this assignment! I've managed to write a sentence, but that's it. I still have 1200 words to go! Now I'm going to sit down and try to get the first draft of this first assignment finished. I've finally got all the kids into bed, even if they aren't asleep yet. Jack won't go to sleep, and he'll probably be cranky in the morning when I make him get up.

Simon's just told me off for getting two little Snickers and two little Topics out of the tin of Celebrations. For months all I've heard from him is "go on ... treat yourself". Now suddenly it's "you're on a diet ..." I have been eating too much chocolate, but I haven't really put any weight on. I'm exercising regularly, and my metabolism seems to be dealing with it better than it used to. But like I told Simon, the stuff is only in the house because of Christmas. Once it's gone, I won't be buying more.

In fact, he's just come into the living room as there was an advert on the telly for a programme showing a woman who has to weigh something like 25 stone talking about how the cartons of ice cream in front of her are the "devil". Simon looked at me and said, "See what happens when you eat too much chocolate?"

Right. I see. I've eaten so much chocolate over the Christmas holidays that I'm at risk of looking like the woman on the telly. I've put on one pound. I'm in a size 12. However will I cope with the horror of it all?

Oh puh-leeze ...

12.39 am I seem to have made progress, but now I'm starting to get worried that I'm going to go over my word count instead of struggle to find enough words to get through the four problem questions in my Equity and Trusts assignment! I'm debating on whether to stay up a while and do some more, or whether I should go to bed and start again in the morning. I have to get up early and take the little monsters to school anyway.

At least I'm still on track to have this assignment finished by Saturday, which was my goal! Half the time I wonder if I'm doing this right because most of it just seems too obvious and easy! Am I that clever, or am I just missing something?
