    Work was awful last week and probably will be no better this week. I literally got up , worked went to bed and repeat. It's so busy and my colleague is off sick again. She has bad mental health and it seems to surface when I am on leave , but it is what it is and I hope she is better soon. 
    Friday was GK day , we went swimming, very pleased with the arrangements by the pool staff , you have to book. Everywhere very clean and organised. We are hoping to repeat this Friday. 
    Money wise pay day was Monday all pots topped up and ready for the month. My loan provider has finally got on line access so will register and check how much is outstanding and try doing an overpayment on the system. 
    Off to do my ironing stash. 
    Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.

    Hope work is better for you - don’t forget to look after you too though. 
    Swimming with the gks sounded good. I’ve been impressed with my pool. I don’t know what else they could do to make it any safer.....just got to hope nobody goes who unknowingly has this dratted virus. But I suppose that applies everywhere.

    I haven't done ironing since about March time. I have just managed by washing and with us not going anywhere, popping them back in the wardrobe as they are. 
    Hope work is better this week but sounds like it will be busy with your colleague being off. Enjoy Friday x
