    Need to run our pre retirement plans as though it's a programme, with multiple projects.

    Marvellous, now I'm in a happy place which is way more familiar :j

    Better bring a proper notebook along rather than scribbling on napkins :rotfl:.

  • Morning, I think work is getting in the way of my social life at the moment :rotfl:

    Positives - I have a well paid job which I'm good at.
    Negatives - leadership change means more work is coming my way again. Time for a discussion about what else I can ditch.

    Money - 99p Tilly Tidy :j.

    Social - out every evening this week and it won't stop until Sunday night late :eek: GG treat me gently tonight and I promise not to fall asleep in my dinner :rotfl:

    Family - due to mild weather mum isn't staying before Christmas but looks like she's moving in after new year.
    Mr T came home last night and is off out just for the day, today. We are both looking forward to the weekend as we are off to meet friends for a reunion.

    Have a good day.
