Busy

Thankful we got out for a walk.  The weather was nice & we got chips
That we get long enough lunch break to be able to do that.

Plenty busy at work, thankful to have some tasks and the day passed quickly.
That team mate covers the site activities so I get to stay home.
I found a better dataset and an interesting background report.  Got started on the main report in the assignment and just sitting down at the pc for a few mins turned into a good session.  Have 500 words done tonight

Am loving the fluffy duvet cover.
Got the advent train down so husband can fill it for me.  Love rediscovering my crystals each year.  And that husband indulges me this way.

I was less stuff today and have the tablet charged so I can do stretching in the morning if I want.

Hobbies

Thankful to be working from home & staying reasonably warm

We got a wander to the chemist at lunch, and it was dry and sunny out.

Got all the bottles accepted by the machine.  And the shopping trip got me past 5000 steps.

Interesting chats with husband today.

YouTube tutorials and now I know how to do a combine the foundation chain and first row - which should make starting projects easier

Am also confident that the bigger hook and narrower base means that this latest attempt should actually be long enough to be a scarf.

The assignment is posted so I can start on that over this weekend.

Nostromo

Team mate joined the gaming and we had a good night.  The game we lost was unsatisfying but shows that winning isn't always possible. And there was time for a second game that we won 🥰

One of the others popped in to say hello and introduced himself to team mate so I know who he is  😁  

Having a laugh with team mates, & sharing the pain.

Caught up with friend and am meeting her tomorrow.  

My mum's on WhatsApp so I can send her pictures, & she managed to reply.  Easy way to stay in better touch.
