I caught up at University with regard to the AA2A scheme, have been advised to add images to my blog on the website, which I was avoiding, because it meant uploading them again, when previously I’d been keeping my blogger blog updated.

I’m desperate to get on with my animation, but have been twice to the faculty of animation today to find no sign of anyone available.
I did attend a lecture on Monday about setting up a social enterprise, which was very informative, and confirmed that’s where the LAN is going.
The Alice In Wonderland exhibition will now be in May hopefully, we have provisionally booked Lincoln Central Library for this, and I’ve spent most of this week working on a new ACE grant proposal, fingers crossed we have no more issues with that this time.
Another outcome of the lecture on Monday was a whole lot of Social Entrepreneurship Grant Awards and funding opportunities. From May the Enterprise Inc funding will stop, so it’s imperative to make sure the LAN is sustainable.
I’m rather glad to have more time to get the animation together to be honest.
This month is difficult. My sister has organised a meal for us all for Mother’s Day, which is a week before what would’ve been Dad’s 60th birthday, and their wedding anniversary. My sister wants to do something for Mum, but I don’t really feel like celebrating.
I’ve started to become more reclusive, not through any fault of my own, and seem to find social networking a distraction now – I recall someone saying that spending too much time on Facebook or Twitter was a sign of depression! But then I’ve heard much nonsense about what constitutes depression lately. However, it seems that those that initially criticised its use are now the ones that are having to concede its effectiveness.
