2020 - 'Nothing in your life will change until you make the decision to change'

In the past, after having corrected someone a few times for how they referred to me, I added though I suppose at your age, it’s easy to forget.  They didn’t get it wrong again

Great news on the windows
Good news on your cat

Thank you   I'm very happy on both counts

Lots of positives there. Bet it's a relief to have the windows done

LOL 🤣 winter warrior at the riot comment. One of my goals currently is to be angry on time and express it appropriately rather than letting it get bottled up... 

It really is a relief.  It makes me more motivated to get the others done now seeing the difference.

I like your goal, I should try this.

@savingholmes what a great goal.
brilliant news about the window and the cat. 

I agree about the incorrect name calling. It does undervalue you as they can’t be bothered to get it right. Mine is similar to the wrong name, for example if you were a Joanne and being constantly called Joan….drives me insane 😡…and there’s the rage! 

It is so frustrating, and because of it, I'm so much more conscious of ensuring I get the right name (or call people by their preferred name) so I suppose there's one benefit.

I definitely would give that one ago - as long as there are no witnesses...

Hi everyone

We had a break in Cornwall this weekend, it was lovely to be away, even if I spent some of it panicking about how we'd get home!  Luckily we managed to fill up on Saturday afternoon, so could relax and get out and about.  We did some exploring of new places.  

I didn't spend too much which is good.  I'm very close to my 50 mile total for the month as well so I'm pleased I will have achieved that.

I'm back to the office this week, it will be weird!  Just one day though, so not too much.

I've got to work on Saturday this week, and I have my flu jab on Sunday.  I'm looking forward to payday, but next month I have MOT and service, and I need to try and book for the dentist as well.

Glad that you had a good wee break.

An excellent time to have a break in Cornwall, just before the weather gets too cold. I hope you kept your eye out for Poldark 😬

Glad you had a nice time in Cornwall. I love the sea... I miss it.

People always get my name wrong. I also detest my name being said in our local accent (very farmer-ish). Sounds totally wrong. 
I keep waking up furious. I blame boris. I don't think it has anything to do with hormones. 
So pleased the window is done. I hope you get the electrician sorted soon and they can both have perfect rooms soon xxx
