  1. Just finished a weekend of night shifts. According to my wife it’s our 18th wedding anniversary today. I’m hoping that’s the ‘Sony earbud’ anniversary as that’s what she’s getting if Amazon come good.

  2. (and yes, even the thought of stubbing my toe like that makes me physically cringe)

    I’ve a work event today so I’m all dressed up. Should be fun! Gotta be on my best behaviour and actually talk to people though 🙃

    But first, a big coffee while I go through my emails and catch up on all the office gossip.

  3. Morning early risers. I’m on my morning shift and the monitor says it’s -273 degrees and sunny.

    After whatever today brings, I’m taking my dog to our first scent work class. I think she’ll smash it because she loves sticking her nose into confined spaces. She’s regularly in my jeans pockets and down the crack between the mattresses looking for treats.

    We may go for a walk after, I’ll see how knackered she is. If we do I think I’ll stop for a coffee, no cake as the coffee place near where we walk doesn’t do anything that I’ll eat.

    The rest of the day will be chilling out, I may make some jewellery as I’m feeling crafty at the moment. You have to grab these spurts of creativity when they present themselves.

  4. Today is going to involve a lot of reading up on GDPR consents for data processing, a lot of coffee and trying not to lose the will to live.

  5. I did that on Friday and my toe still hurts I think it’s broken 🙁

  6. Funeral of my grandfather this afternoon

    Gonna be a big one, we’ve got at least 30 from the family and he had a Lot of friends.

    Unfortunately I left my makeup bag at my boyfriends house in holland so I’m starting the day with an emergency m and s trip

  7. This is the last week I am working before I get one week off, after having worked the whole summer so everyone else could take a break.

    I am broken. This feels like crawling up hill through treacle.

    I am going to need an unreasonable amount of coffee!

  8. First day back at work after a week off sick having a bit of a breakdown. Really looking forward to explaining myself…

    “oh yeah hi boss this week I got an autism diagnosis and then my brain cracked and I just didn’t show up to work all week cos I was crying on the sofa”

  9. I’ve had a week off last week

    I am not raring to go or refreshed and could do with another week off. Or two.

    I’ve also got some sort of lurgy, sore throat and just feel bleh.

    My plan is to spend the day “catching up” on emails (which will in effect only take me a couple of hours) to avoid doing any actual work.

  10. Agency Teacher. Woke up early to hope for a phone call. None came. So a day for myself….not sure what to do

  12. I woke, yawned, stretched, and wrenched my shoulder. Dominant arm. Fuck you too, Monday.

  13. My toddler was in a great mood this morning (he’s 2 next week and has started the tantrums in a BIG way) so despite the usual Monday gloom I’m actually in a great mood now, too!

  14. Builder is coming to break up the old concrete base today, going to take the week if not more to shift it all. Very anxious incase something happens that’ll cost us more money!

    Decided to put that nervous energy into a workout by swinging a kettlebell around and doing some floor stretches and exercises.

  15. I have nothing to contribute. I just like reading about what other people are doing.

  16. My flatmate broke his toe doing exactly that.

    I’m going to do my mum’s housework today, and I really need to do my own as well. Bah.

  17. First day back at work after a fortnight on holiday.

    Only 178 emails and nothing seems to have blown up in my face whilst I was away, so that’s a win. 😁

  19. I’m off this week and off to Disneyland tomorrow til Friday. Up yours, everyone.

  20. Woke up early for delivery. It’s not here so I checked my order and its due 7pm.

    Had one week off work, got another 3 to go and I am already bored as hell. I’ve run out of things to decorate/tidy and the rest of the stuff for my gaming room isn’t here yet so it’s looking like a half finished mess.

    Guess I’ll just do gardening in the torrential rain

  21. Currently slouched on the sofa suffering from the lurgy I caught from my lovely husband, who caught it just as we were coming back from our honeymoon. This is on the back of a stomach bug the day before our wedding that lasted a week 🙃 nevermind worrying about the weather ruining your day, try the prospect of shitting yourself during your vows

  22. Back to work today from a few days off to attend a wedding – coming down with a cold from said wedding and I’m straight into a problematic python script that keeps bugging out. Today shall be sponsored by coffee!!

  23. Saw this and thought ‘ow that sucks’, got up and walked into the bathroom door handle. Have a gorgeous bruise already forming on my hip 👍

    Happy Monday everyone!

  24. Perfecting my dance moves to the HMRC hold music after waking to seeing them take £1300 from my account in error 😍 happy monday 

  25. Tired, been awake since 3.30 as my dog was twirling around like a ballerina from the sounds of it

    Last day at my afternoon job before my holiday

    Need to do some baking to use up frozen fruit
