Abundance

Thankful I got to do weights with husband.  & that I remembered to log it.

That we live in abundance, food, heating, water, house space, entertainment...    That I get to work 4 days a week so really I have an abundance of time too.  That we have enough space to work from home comfortably & to have things like a gaming table & the exercise equipment.  That we have a garden too & a drive - we were fortunate with this house.

That we have jobs & friends, & family.

That we found a house to look at, so can get excited about another viewing.

Day off

Thankful for a lie-in, & that I was well snuggled.  That I get my Wednesdays off.

The rain stopped when I got to the play area & I was there alone.

I found pink bluebell, very happy.

Got to library & collected my book, also remembered to get tweezers, & found some nice wool.  

Enjoyed learning a new stitch today.

I can just pop in for the thank you event, & even take a colleague if I want.  Project is still on-going so I can take more squares with me, may even finish the granny square I dislike.

Friends & resources

Thankful for the workshops being on zoom so I can attend them, & that we keep having ideas for more.  That host says he'll make sure the ones I'm interested on will be put on when I can attend.  For the reminder of all the resources / toolkit I have, & that I know how to use them.

For husband doing the cooking, & ensuring we eat well, & he got the cake out early for dinner so it was defrosted a little when we were ready to eat it.

That I found the answers for the coursework & am in the process of typing them up, & that there's no time limit on the course.  Also that I am so nearly done & have the hope that I'll pass.

Watched a show a friend recommended & it's ok, glad I stuck with it through the boring start.

That I have a desk at work tomorrow, & am packed ready to go, also remembered to make breakfast ready for tomorrow, & a spoon in my bag.

& Relax

Thankful for snuggling with husband this morning.  For the freedom to get up & start work whenever I want 

& for the boss popping into the team meeting for a few mins & answering my questions.  That I'm in a good team, & I had a nice chat with mentor buddy for the first time in ages.

Helping someone out reminded me of something I'd forgotten in my own documents - glad to have taken care of that now.

For the freedom to leave early too, & that we had a pleasant drive out to the viewing.  That we have a delightfully calm, drama-free life.  And we're well aligned on important things.

That I managed to offer some comfort to a friend & created a grid for her.  And shrug off my annoyance.

Husband brought me hot chocolate, & I'm enjoying the scents of the wax melts friend gave me.

That I have a friend I speak to every day, & I enjoy chatting with.  Thanks :) 

That we live somewhere safe & quiet, & it's bedtime.  For having a safe, private place to live, & thrive.

Friends

Thankful that I got to rest this morning, & am enjoying the book I'm reading.  Thankful for books & the library, & that I can read.

That I took my cards & did the reading for friend, & she was very happy. Very glad they were positive cards.  That I spent the afternoon is good company, & the workshops & art classes are starting up again.  Also that I got the crystals I was after, & remembered to get soap.  & I came away with a box of wax melts.

That I organised the viewing & am quite excited about the house.  The woman remembered me from booking the last viewing.

I got home before husband messaged, & the traffic wasn't bad so we got KFC for dinner.  Love husband, & how he takes care of me.

It was dry enough to mow the lawn & I got the front done, & the compost bin is full now.  By the weekend it'll've gone down enough for me to start on the back.

The dandelions are mostly clocks now so I don't need to honour no mow May, husband wasn't happy about that anyway.

Remembered to text & phone my mum, & the card had already arrived.

Home sweet home

That I got up & got myself to work at a reasonable time, even had time to shower.

That I got there before anyone claimed the desk that was booked for me.  & I got to move to a better desk too.  It's the boss's problem not mine.

I was there to help a couple of people.

That we got to sit outside at lunch, & got a group table to ourselves.  That we get the walk & the weather held, & I have workmates to chat with.

That we got back in time for the meeting & there isn't much revision to do, & my doc is nearly ready to go out for approval - on course to meet my deadline.

That husband is sweet, & made yummy tea as always.  There's a house we're interested in, so I can arrange a viewing

Rest day

Thankful for getting out for a bit, & getting most of the twigs into the compost, that the prickle weeds came out easily enough.  

For libraries & their ecollection, & also all the apps I enjoy.  Am doing well with the German - maybe I will revisit other languages later.  That the books are instant download & I have been through several this afternoon.  That I enjoy reading & have access to plenty of books, & reading material in my native language is readily accessible too.

That the shopping centre & carpark were empty & we got straight through a till in Tesco.

Husband managed to get some of the gas he was after.

For the bonus day off & being able to take it easy.
