Pleasures for today (Friday)
1) Not a bad sleep.
2) My sister came round to collect some crochet for the new baby. She is now 35 weeks pregnant.
3) A friend came round at the same time to look where part of my patio is crumbling. I've got to try and get some bricks.
4) Coffee morning. We did a crossword and played chess.
5) Another silly shift at work. The manager who started 2-3 weeks ago has left. I now have the 7th manager in 12 months. This one is known to hate women. Happy days...
6) Got home and did smaller son's passport application. I took us a while to get a photo where he wasn't laughing, mainly because he's 30cm taller than me so I had to hold the phone up in the air to get his face in!
7) Watching television now.
