Pleasures for today (Friday)

1) Not a bad sleep. I dreamed I was looking along a rack in a charity shop and every single top was the right size, in lovely fabric and with amazing patterns! 

2) Bigger son popped round.

3) We went to the coffee morning together and played board games then bigger son went for a bike ride so I just chatted to the other people. 

4) Went to Waitrose in town of my birth and the coffee shop has shut permanently! Managed to get the free newspaper. 

5) Picked up a free loaf of bread on the way home. 

6) Completed another shift at work. Awful tonight. Far too much to do and yet another racist colleague. This one picked a bad moment and I told him to stop. He demanded to know which country one of my colleagues is from and just kept asking over and over again! I said I wasn't going to tell him (several times) but he followed me into my kitchen, which was unnerving. Then he called me a "liberal", as though that was an insult! I don't know whether I can be bothered to say anything. I just told smaller son that if I reported every colleague who made a racist comment, I would be making a  report every day. 

7) Watched The Traitors.

Another nothing day and the pleasure is that it is over

ill dog is iller again :-( so started the day off working at home. had to go in for a meeting, mum said she'd stay in. 
1) friend thought she'd left her laptop here last night so picked me up from work - no sign of laptop so we went back to hers and that must have triggered her memory - laptop found
2) piano practice - chopin is still choppy but then played Sunday's choir music and that was fun
3) book club was very good (though sadly one of our number is in hospital)
4) walked friend home so had good catch up with her AND got my steps in
5) found some forgotten chocolate in the house and have eaten it :P
now in bed with news quiz.

Hugs for SSue and GWS wishes for poorly pooch.

For yesterday.

A few errands in the morning, dropped a couple of horse rugs off for cleaning and reproofing plus popped into the village garage.

My right shoulder has really been giving me jip this week, mixture of stress and subsequent tight muscles I suspect so decided on a quiet day at home, ignoring Mount Ironmore among other things.

Read my book for a bit then had a nap on the sofa, sleep has been in short supply due to the above.

Easy tea of pizza and HM slaw.

Tried to play Yahtzee but shaking cup left handed seemed to affect my luck and Capt S won 3 on the bounce so retired gracefully to watch some Cats does Countdown.

Hugs to poorly dog, DD.

For yesterday

Having to find loose skirts or dress, as my stomach hurts having anything against it.

1 Abysmal few nights’ sleep truly awful, why does it always feel like the end of the world in the early hours, found myself waking up at midday.

2 Changed our bedding, so that clean bedding feeling later.

3 Changed today's meal planning to bland, so chicken soup was err I don’t know all the timings are off, and grilled up various chicken bits and I don’t want to admit just how many bits of leftover cheeses I melted into the pasta and veg

4 I’ve done some serious job searching but now is not the right time.

For today

1 Another afternoon start and I’m sick of feeling off par so I fought back, did a face pack, hair pack, and tidied all the areas where things I had cleaned where sitting in piles ready to be put away but just not actually done, all sorted as no one else seems to do it!

2 Taking the weekend off from any sort of job hunting, as I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed by it, a pleasure to ignore it for 2 days.

3 Re stocked the bird feeders a definite pleasure.

4 Made a list of things we actually need and the worth it vouchers coming up at C0stco.

5 Sitting here in big fluffy comfy socks, feet up, cuppa, reading. Perfect! More perfect if an animal wanted a cuddle as well but can’t force them, they have a heated pad, well the poorlies have heated pads which everyone loves, and I changed the ferret bedding to clean thick fleeces and hammocks and of course, some have gone back to bed!!

Pleasures for today (Saturday)

1) Not a bad sleep then went back to sleep!

2) I had arranged with someone to go to Park Run but they seemed fine that they turned up and I never appeared. 

3) Pottered around during the morning and it was surprisingly cold again. 2 degrees.

4) Smaller son and I went to the football and we remain top of the league! We won 2-0 today. 

5) Lots of text messages from everyone throughout the day. Sometimes several days go by and I don't hear from anyone at all! Bigger son sent me one that made me laugh. He went for a bike ride yesterday with his girlfriend and there is only one river bridge to come back on. It was closed and people were standing on it. They thought they would be OK if they got off their bikes and wheeled them through. They got half way and there was a huge round of applause but it wasn't for them but the funeral procession passing by... 

6) My school friend phoned. We discussed many things but included that I need to find a new job. 

7) Watched Casualty.

For yesterday,

Despite the nap I had a decent nights sleep.

We decided to head off to the farm shop for breakfast, a snorker bap and coffee this time. Picked up some milk & bacon while we were there.

With the beautiful grey one, we went for a little walk in hand around the farm but boy it was cold. Happy to get back and snuggle her in stable with hay net.

Had been checking the footie scores all afternoon, we were 2-1 up away from home but conceded an own goal in last minute ☹️ just not our day (again)

I had popped some pork belly slices into the SC and when I got home I mixed up a batch of sticky sauce so that was added for the last hour or so. That made a decent meal of pulled pork with added rice for tea.
