    I have this four hour literacy and numeracy test in about an hour, and I am fearing the literacy part. I often skip words when I read or what I’m reading doesn’t actually go in because my brain refuses to absorb the information. Unless the information is exciting in some way.

      Try reading the question backwards as well as forwards if the questions aren’t too long. That way you’re focusing on the words on the page instead of getting caught up in the flow of reading

        Ooh that’s an interesting idea! I just did the literacy test and it was a lot easier than I thought it would be :)

      You’ll be ok. Take your time. Skip the harder questions and come back to them later. You’ve got this.

      I tried to do a brand new dance now, but I’m old so it just led to a sore hip and a knee injury. Time for a Bex and a good lie down.

    Trying a shampoo from Aldi. It doesn’t have dimethicone (I get greasy hair) but it does have fragrance and quaternium which are asthma triggers. I used it just now and will see if the scent dissipates before bed. Weirdly it stings a little.

    I finished watching Private Lives/Bohema. It was like watching 6 movies about the same people over the span of 2 decades.

    It was just sad, or I should say I was saddened. I might be too old to watch this. Like being too old to read Russian novels, you need to be young and fresh and not worn down to be resilient enough to withstand the nihilism.

    And I just don’t understand life sometimes.

    I have the last episode/short movies of Private Lives/Bohema to watch , a series about the Prague movie and radio industry during nazi occupation and then the soviets. Based on real people and events.

    Really difficult show to watch, to see how events happened, history crept up, people made little decisions to try to survive or save others, some made big decisions.

    Always in these shows and books I question myself, what would I have done, where is the line.

    Will give a bit of a review when I know it better.
