A whole new world, for now

Glad you had a lazy day and well done for being overweight.  Agree about obese, and then morbidly obese which is me

.  While I haven’t shifted a full pound, I have managed to creep into overweight - am I the only one who even hates how the word obese sounds?

Unfortunately no. ☹️

Disgusting word.
As bad as !!!!!! when I was wee  :a:angry:

Am now intrigued to discover beanie’s word but maybe it’s best confined to the past.  

This is going.to be one of those really long, heavy weeks where for some weird reason, a month’s worth of meetings are falling across a few days.  Plus I’m already behind as bar being on both sites to cover over the weekend, I did no work. Thankfully dh has prepped my Wednesday job.  Right, rather than sitting here worrying about stuff, I need to just get moving.  I think a list is called for to try keeping me on track.

today I am grateful for 
another item being rehomed
my credit card payment reminder
a chat with ds

Good idea to have a list. Even the act of writing a list calms me down. Good luck with the week ahead.

I’m another who thinks about doing things rather than getting them done......it as if the mere fact of thinking about them will miraculously make them happen......but it never does. Same as owning my SlimmingWorld card doesn’t make me loose weight. Life just isn’t fair 😂😂
We had our missed Christmas in April....gks put a Christmas tree up in the garden. It was very special. 😂😂😂we visited dd for the first time in a year and littlest gdd wanted to know if we could have another Christmas 😂😂😂 Enjoy the Christmas dinner with your family 👍

Ermm. I am sorry are you saying thinking about things doesn't get them done? Crap. That explains a lot!

Guess what, I didn’t even get as far as the list! Another crisis with an immediate effect resignation leaving one night shift uncovered this week. Plus the usual asks from so many. I came home at 6 last night and then had to do another hour and a half to get papers issued for a meeting today.  I went to te3co around half ten last night as stuff was needed.  

Today I need an early start so need to get going. If I’m home by 8.30, it’ll be a result and I need to be on the road by 8 tomorrow for the first Dublin day in a long time. Still, I get more per day from my Dublin work than I do per week at the regular client.

Your staffing crises put ours in perspective! (Last night's waking night staff still on shift when I left this morning). I hope you didn't lose one of the good guys. When you get a chance of a day off, do take it!

Good that your Dublin work is restarting. If you can fit in a decent lunch break and get some fresh air it will be a double bonus but however it turns out, I hope it's a useful mental break for you.

You need to slow down woman!!
