Sleep makes everything better doesn’t it! You’re sounding really on top of things. Will you plan something together as a family for the Easter weekend?

It certainly does make everything better! We're planning on getting out and about. The 100 mile challenge starts today so we'll be aiming to get some walks in.

Happy Thursday, and happy long weekend! I'm only in Tuesday and Wednesday next week and then I'm off for the following week as well. Lovely!
We are hoping to get lots of walking in. I've managed a grant total of 3.4 miles so far this month. I've made us a nice shiny graph so we can track our journey to 100 miles.
It's been a busy week at work. I had to compile an overview of projects we'd been doing over the last few years. It was quite satisfying to see just how much we'd manage to achieve despite all the rubbishness that has been going on. I'm going to keep it as a reference document and keep adding to it.
