Good stuff

Husband bought some chocolate I was eyeing up, I think it was just coincidence & he thought I'd like it - I do.

Had a lovely massage, no work talk, & a good giggle.  I lent her a book & she said it was perfect timing.  Also that my shoulders are less tense (I relax them more now).

Husband had got tea (& dessert) while he was out.

Managed to take a few breaths & avoid an argument, & get what I wanted from an unexpected interaction.

beach

A friend got in touch just as I was wondering who to text for a walk along the beach, was up for it so off we went, 5 mile walk, nice :-)  step count achieved.  We had a lovely time catching up, the weather was good, people were enjoying themselves outside. Came home & husband helped me finish the bunny run.  He'd also made a curry batch whilst I was out.

Remembered to get hay for bunnies, whilst the shop was still open.

Have managed to find homes for a few more things out of the loft, & thrown a few things out.

shopping

Thankful I can shop without concern, that the shops are well stocked and nearby, that I can buy what I need without sacrifice.
Thankful for the car & road network & traffic rules that allow us to move freely & safely.
That the queue we were in was short & soon over, that parking was easy.

Thankful for the sunny day & husband being home & assembling the bunny run, & that all the pieces were found.

pilates

Pilates was on, & we got a good spot, & we got booked in for next week,
I remembered my mat & my clothes.

Am boosting the positive, remembering that I bounce, & that I can influence the mood around me.
One of my new books arrived, & I'm enjoying it.
It's the kick up the a**s I need, & yes, the habits I need to re-establish.
Gratitude is magic, & here I am.

careers fair

got some actions ticked off my list
enjoyed the careers fair
there were sandwiches I like
got a meeting arranged with the boss
husband arrived at his destination safely

People

Some of my shopping blew out of the trolley on the way to the car.  A passerby helped pick it up.  Other people stopped to ask if I was ok & offer help.

The traffic that was stationary when we arrived was all gone when we left, & the jam on the main road was short.

Have spent a lot of time with husband these past couple of days, remembering how much I adore him.  I've been missing him all week, glad to know the reality matches expectation.

It was dry long enough to clear out the bunnies.  Husband noticed the bin was empty & pushed the contents down so the lid closed, again in a dry spell & before the snow started.

I'm safe & warm & dry.

Teeth

I booked a check-up at the dentist because I had toothache. It went away but I kept the appointment.  Turns out I had a hole in a wisdom tooth, & it's good to catch it early.  I had the afternoon off work for the filling which was good because the dentist was running late & I would've been well over time, plus I needed double anaesthetic & I'm glad I didn't have to speak to anyone afterwards with my numb uncomfortable face.
I got parked nearby for both appointments.

I was lucky that when it hurt & I jumped he moved & neither of us was damaged.
& husband came home early, as I was cooking his tea.

I had a friendly interaction with my boss.
I like husband being home, I am so spoilt & so lucky.

• I remembered to fill the screenwash.
• Sunny day,
• great walk along the coast with friend,
• she got a good parking space
• tip reasonably empty & I got a convenient space

• remembered to phone my mum

parking & care

Thankfully my 10am café trip with friends was changed to 11.15
somewhere with comfy seats, & easier to get to,
& I got one of the free (available & no cost) parking spaces
it's stopped raining so I can clear out the bunnies

I'm in a good mood
I'm inspired to do some housework!
I have been thinking of all the people who look after me, thankful for them all :-)

everyday acts

had a laugh today,
got to see what someone else does in their job, & that was useful for me.
made some progress in my work & figured out a little bit more of what I'm doing
someone else has agreed to do bits of their work,
the sun was shining & everyone else seemed to be in a good mood too
got another dinosaur sticker given away to someone being proactive in a useful way

lunch

I remembered about Mother's day in time to get my mum a card in the post.
Thankful there are shops close by, & a post box, & that I have plenty of stamps.

Also thankful husband helped me carry out a good turn today.  I offer to bring lunch back for a few people with no consideration of how I would carry it all.  Husband to the rescue :-D

The bunnies had their annual check-up & vaccinations, they are happy & healthy.  The vet was pleased with them.  They were easy to catch & put in their carrier, & husband helped me with that too.

He made lovely dinner for us.

Success & progress

I got a chunk of work finished.  I can move on to the next & leave other people to do their bit now.
I have some feedback about a report, it means someone's read it!  That's good news.
I have some "completed" items on my tracker, I'm in a strong position for my next meeting with my boss.
It's so nice having husband home.
Chatting to a couple of friends, was good catching up.

Insights

The roads are mostly clear & I got out to catch up with a friend.
Tracked care package to a mate that didn't get delivered.  Hopefully she can intercept it in time before it gets returned to me.
Had a lovely chat with a friend this morning, helped me get some thoughts in order, as hopefully I did for her.
I'm going to make tea.  Got some steps in on the way to the corner shop, & I just snuck in before closing!  The people in the corner shop are great, & quite often let people sneak in late.  Always cheerful & willing.
Got a mini colouring book that'll fit into my lunch bag.  Just in case there's no-one around for lunch anytime.

Shops

I got the bunnies cleaned out in a dry spell.
& we made it to the shops for supplies, the town was pretty clear.
We now have plenty of beer & chocolate, all of which made it safely into the house
I'm enjoying colouring in & reading, thankful I have indoor hobbies.

I shut this tab down halfway through writing, thankful it saved as a draft.
Husband was cold & sneezing yesterday & seems recovered now.
Husband's home for the week!

Another good day

Cake for breakfast :-)

I like my workmates, & we have fun together.

I turned up to the meet the managers & had a decent chat with them.

Made reasonable progress with my report.

We made it safely to work, early & productive.

Husband has found me something I like from his favourite pizza place.

I have plenty of steps today.

safe & warm

Listening to the storm, glad to be inside.
The roads were clearer & emptier today, driving was easier.
Husband's on his way home having managed to get a seat on a train & leave the South.
I made progress on my report, thinking time yesterday so it all fell into place today, & I have stage 1 of my project complete.
Stage 2 might require some revision of stage 1, I will be wiser for the next cycle.
I cancelled at meeting so got my best focus time back which really helped me crack on with that.
The meeting is rearranged for a time when I'll be better prepared for it.
I phoned the cook at work to check breakfast was on, & it was so she put aside the well done bacon for me.  Because breakfast was served all day I even had a bonus sausage at lunch.
I was wondering whether to speak to someone at their desk today, they saw me dithering by the door (far enough away to not be hovering) & smiled so I went over & we had a really good chat.
