Just been for a morning run and now the household chores
Taking the kids swimming, then have to do some revision for an exam on Sunday night, then out for a meal with friends tonight.
From the thumbnail I thought it was National sausage day!
Dog to the V.E.T later for routine jabs, then lunchtime afternoon tea with The Mothership for M Day, then hopefully some lounging around (at home) around in me pants.
As Mother’s Day collides with my birthday tomorrow we’re doing a cream tea for everybody here today instead so that’ll be lovely.
MIL is cooking tomorrow and she’s a fucking fantastic cook. 3 desserts and a banging roast, can’t wait.
Bricking up and air brick vent, rock and roll ….
I’m off to work in a minute for a bit of overtime.
It’s great for the extra money, but they got me in under false pretences to some degree.
The product I build was being phased out and I started a secondment with another team with an eye to getting a promotion.
A month in and our customer increased their order by 800%.
I said I would come in on Saturdays and do all of the prep work, which should be enough to let the rest of the team hit target without me.
They cancelled my secondment anyway, but then still asked me to carry out some of the duties I had been doing for the last month because the team I was seconded to is also short handed.
So now I’m essentially doing 1.5 jobs and not getting paid any extra for it whilst also being the only person in the company doing overtime.
I think I have been played for a fool and will have to discuss this on Monday.
Going to visit the Mother in law 1st to drop off her Mother’s Day flowers.
Then to Sports direct for some new Running trainers and an over sized mug.
Tonight off out with friends who we haven’t seen for a while.
Not sure yet. The sun is shining and it’s cold out, so a nice mooch along the river or to the local duck pond might have to be in order.
Just in bed with a coffee and my whippet puppy. He treated us to a 7am wake up this morning which was nice as he’s usually up about 6.30. Not much on today other than my parents coming over this afternoon.
I’ve got taiko class this afternoon
Up early for some overtime this morning to go towards a new kitchen floor. Boss has been in a foul mood the last few days so I’ve bought them a coffee & pain au chocolat for breakfast to hopefully end up having a more pleasant morning!
Once I’m done I think some gardening, got some tomatoes & few other bits to get started & then have a puzzle to finish this evening. Oh what a thrilling life I lead!
I was full of worry Thursday night and as predicted it was not the end of the world so feeling much better today. Mainly a lazy Saturday planned: dog walk, get a last minute mums day present & card because I am so disorganized, wrap a birthday gift for a nibling party tomorrow, chill the rest of the time. Oh and chores. Eurgh, chores.
Just about to get up, the dog needs walking! I have washing to do so I don’t have to do any tomorrow.
Probably buy some sausages and cook them with eggs fried.
One hour walk
Football, listen.
Rugby, watch, sound off.
Cook, parmigiana, slowly fir evening meal.
Finish off Private Eye, before next one.
Reddit and Twitter.
Finished work at 7am and went to McDonald’s for breakfast, on my way home for a sleep now.
Woken up by anxious annoying thoughts about work. Need to feedback to my boss that his communication skills are shit and wondering how best to make the point properly without sounding like a whinge or getting fired.
Popping out on the motorbike for a 2 hour jaunt somewhere and then back for MotoGP practice and qually.
Dog walking, mooching around, doing more learning (python), start of a spring clean (possibly)
Today I’m sorting out final money transfers ready to complete on the house we are buying next week. I’m going to have a house! I honestly never thought that would be possible for me. I am so looking forward to making it our own.
We will also get lunch.
Cry internally because we had a boiler that didn’t work properly so had no hot water for 2+ weeks now have a new one and that one won’t work properly either so currently have no heating OR hot water, again, plus I have gum infection from a wisdom tooth causing immense pain but the NHS won’t take it out because, obviously
So pissed off and tired right now
Im planning a very much needed comfy sofa day with either Portal on Switch or doodling on my iPad and music. Coffee and comfort food all day, finishing with pizza and some form of TV tonight. Havent decided between silly 90s movie or continuing Andor quite yet.
(Sorry that most of my posts here contain what Im about to mention now, I hate the thought of bringing people down so Ive spoiler tagged it. TW: Chemo)
>!The reason for my comfy day is that yesterday during my Chemo I had a very bad reaction to the treatment for the 2nd time in 12 weeks. Feeling extra sleepy today from the rescue meds they gave me. The Nurses were great and that certainly helped but it was terrifying and knowing I need 2 more rounds of this drug before I start my next 12 week cycle of new drugs is weighing on my mind.!<
It’s my birthday today so we’re getting the train into Edinburgh, have booked into a pub and going to sit and watch the Six Nations games with my sisters and their lots – have a great day whatever you all do 😁
An hour with Simon Whistler on YouTube then I think a walk. It’s not currently raining which must mean it’s going to rain later.
Have a great weekend
Going to fill up my ISA before the deadline, it’s the ISA deadline everyone, don’t forget to fill it up!
Then it’s chest and triceps for me at the gym, and I think I’ll play a few more levels of Mario Wonder for the rest of the day.
