  1. Today I have to work out how to use the new HubSpot javascript API to hijack a date field, read the hidden unix timestamp it generates and work out if it’s between two other dates (also in unix timestamps) and if it isn’t, disable to submit button. Should be fun.

  2. I’m back at work, boooo. Currently sat with a large coffee and going through 100+ emails.

    Seeing a friend for a drink and a catch-up later, then I’m going to make a big pot of daal.

    Mr Sky and I are both starting a health kick (*slight* overindulgence on holiday). Hopefully no one brings cakes into work, I have no self control.

  3. Today was the first day of tweaked commuting times as me ol’ man has changed his role and starts earlier than before. I’m in the office for 07:30 which is a tad too early when i’m a 9-5er.

    Then again, it’s only two days a week and i’d much rather chill in the office than fork out for the bus/train and walk in the elements.

  4. Heading back to the office for the first time since they made half my department redundant, expecting a grim atmosphere.

  5. Got up for a wee in the night and completely forgot my ankle was knackered, went down like a sack of potatoes on the bedside table

    Now sporting a matching swollen technicolour eye

    Today can naff off

  6. I woke up at sparrow fart to go get a Monday morning massage, which isn’t a bad start to the week. It’s my day off so might go for breakfast out after, and this afternoon I’m going to play with my niece. Need to get some studying done in between, I’m already 2 weeks behind at uni.

  7. I’ve had the lurgy that’s been going around. Rolled out of bed last night and landed hard on the floor. Not ready to work

  8. Did far too much wallpaper stripping yesterday and can barely feel my hand this morning. To be fair it wasn’t great when I started…

    Friend who specifically asked if he could stay last night didn’t even bother to return my call around 8 so I was in bed by half 9. Expecting an explanation today. On the plus side I feel very refreshed today that’s the earliest I’ve slept in years!

  9. I laughed way too much at the crow photo haha!

    Anyways, have a good day and week all!

  10. Back is really stiff, I was going to go upto the leisure centre for a morning stretching class and then a sit in the steamroom but the instructor has cancelled and the spa area is closed for a deep clean until 2pm

  11. We’ve got the decorating guy over to do the bathroom in the flat. Praying that I’m at work when he gets here because I can’t be bothereddd

    (we’re renting, so its not very exciting decoration)

  12. Proper drizzly morning down these parts, not enough to call it rain but everything is damp and ‘Monday like’.

    Stark difference to last night where the boys and I watched Nobody 2 together, was a great film, just the right amount of silly.

    Oh well, back to the office for the standard natter about what we did over the weekend. I do love my colleagues but I quite fancy some change at this point.

  13. Suffering from a severe case of the Monday blues and have a busy day. Bad combo.

  14. Week 2 of 3 of my mate at work being on leave. We’ve been called the ‘pillars of our team’ (by other people) which is nice, but is bloody hard work!

    Really need to get a boiler repair guy round and some radiators connected before the heating needs to go on this week. I felt the cold this morning.

  15. I’ve got sciatica and I’ve not had much sleep. Off to the osteopath’s later, hoorah!

  16. boiler man coming first thing, off to work to walk dogs after, then sweet fa late afternoon evening!

  17. Had an NHS phone appointment at 7am for son, by some miracle he hadn’t woken up at that time so did the appointment without child wrangling and they understood my pre coffee brain ramblings.

  18. First Monday back after two weeks in Fuerteventura, and oh my god, how do I put up with this on a regular basis? This time last week I was eating pancakes and churros on a terrace in the sun, this week I’m sat at my desk staring down the barrel of a week of bullshit.

  19. I’m looking forward to the draw for the FA Cup today. Chatham town made it to the 1st round for the first time in 97 years! CTFC!!

  20. Have a delivery I need to sign for arriving sometime between 7 and 11 this morning so of course up and ready before 7 and of course delivery probably won’t be here until 1059.

  21. Today I, at the age of 41, learned that the phrase is ‘To make ends meet’ and is not ‘To make ends meat.’

    What phrases have you guys recently learned you had wrong or misunderstood?

  22. My ISP email provider has broken my email service, which I use to sign into my insurance policies. With great trepidation I used the “Virtual Chatbot” and in mirable dictu it provided a clear, simple solution and got me sorted inside of 3 minutes, and so Esure, thank you for not starting my week with stress.

  23. Got two days off work. Today I get to spend it doing tests at the doctors to see if I have cancer. Tomorrow I get to spend it driving back to work. Huzzah!

  24. I’m in an inappropriately good mood for a Monday morning. I think maybe just the relief that this week isn’t a insane as the past few. On paper, my day is pure drudgery: Iron son’s school uniforms, do breakfast washing up, Zoom with colleagues at 10:15, walk dogs, waitrose shop, homework (figure out how to use Word and upload it onto my college’s framework without it opening upside down and in Mandarin on their end) write an email to my son’s school, offering ADHD workshop to students, make week’s worth of Japanese chicken rice bowls and crispy seaweed for son’s lunches, follow up on unpaid invoices (yuck), sort out my leggy philodendrons, plant tulip bulbs in front garden(and put spiky cactus pieces in the soil to stop neighbour’s cat using it as a litter box, make beef and enoki mushroom bowls for dinner, aaaaaand relax.

  25. woke up with the dread™️

    week three of uni and i keep going back and forth on whether im happy or i made a massive mistake – either way im miserable and feeling like life isn’t very good anymore 🙃

  26. Got some lesson planning for the week and catching up on housework. Always fun.

  27. Exhausted after a trip to Manchester on Friday to see Architects.

    The gig was amazing but the travel was awful both ways (bloody trains!) with the added bonus of stomach troubles keeping me on edge the whole time.

    My eldest went out partying after and when I realised he still wasn’t back at 4am I turned into my Mam and had a panic attack imagining he’d fallen into a canal and drowned.

    I feel like I need another day off now to relax!

  28. Nice and refreshed this morning working from home this morning and driving down to Gloucester later ahead of a work meeting tomorrow morning

  29. “Hey Siri, play Golden by Bongo Cat” – what words did you least expect would pass through your lips?

    Kids discovered Bongo Cat via Spotify Random playlist. Thanks Spotify.

  30. One week in to the ‘anti-inflammatory diet’ (No UPF’s, no dairy, no sugar, no refined carbs). I’ve finally entered the ‘acceptance’ stage about how there will be **no** chocolate bars this month.
