Gaming
Made it to the shop at lunch, enjoyed the walk in the dry
Continuing to make progress on work stuff
Remembered to buy biscuits for meeting
Am loving the new shawl, it's so pretty
Found the solo rules I want to to try out
For the possibilities the web provides, being able to find information and socialise
That we have a cosy house & can afford the heating on

Progress
Had a good day workwise, made lots of progress
Glad workmate came up with a solution himself, & now I have someone to recommend for recognition
Am getting near the end of the wool - looking forward to shawl being finished
Enjoyed ball class
Got the time off I want for my holiday

Woods
Finished the audiobook, enjoyed it, thankful for wherever the recommendation came from
For having access to the library collection
Got to the woods this morning & it was warm and dry
Managed to give away the spade to someone looking for tools
The elf got taken too
More baby steps of progress on the course
Watched the start of a playthrough of the latest game we have, thankful for all the resources available to us, tutorials, playthroughs, for online communities & all the ways we have to keep in touch

Games
Proud of myself for taking over a monthly challenge for a game I like
Husband's made a new curry batch - yum, and he remembered to cook the chicken before it went off
He spent a fair amount of time decluttering and has the cupboard in order
Remembered to phone my mum, we had a nice chat and I have the outline of a plan for my trip
Also got to speak with my dad, he received his card before his birthday
Investigated a couple of new games today, including one I played online to avoid printing

Plans
Freedom to take time off whenever
Enjoyed a morning of crochet and audiobook
Skip arrived & they got it onto the drive without me moving the car
It was much quicker to empty the loft than I expected & am very glad I asked for help
Someone asked for the pictures & they were saved from being junk
My parents are happy for me to visit for my mum's birthday & friend is available the weekend I've suggested visiting him
Looking back over old photos was enjoying, & I've had a digital purge as well as a physical one

Progress
Got to morning teabreak with office mate & we had a good chat
Productive morning, & I got progress on all my tasks
Have a good chunk of work done on a task that I'm doing to keep the big boss happy
The others are up for gaming & I'm looking forward to that
Glad I have the freedom of flexible working, & can come & go as I please
Reassured the global team have started on their tasks & seem to have done a good job
