23.08.2008 – Saturday 23 August – Mum

Morning

• Sarah phoned, and told me that the doctors have given Mum 1 to 3 months, 2 weeks ago.

Afternoon

• I did some washing, hung around the house, picked up an SD card reader for me, an internal everything card reader for Maz, and copied music to my new 8 GB SD card now that I can read it properly.

4:51pm

• Off to Maz’s, via the bottleshop with Stella.

Night

• Maz and I dropped Maz’s parent’s off at Libby’s place, then bought KFC and Hungry Jack’s for dinner, respectively, before heading up to Kieran’s, and picking up Maz’s parent’s again later.

3:30am

• Back from Kieran’s, and off to bed.
