Social
Made it to pilates, the full session. Am noticing myself stiff through it so is good to remember that I can do the exercises outside of class too.
That I'd built up enough time during the week to finish early and get to Pilates and then have a nap.
Husband sorted out dinner and chose well for me.
We got to the pub just in time to order and sit before team mate turned up closely followed by leaving guy. It was an enjoyable session & I got a free hot chocolate. And I am feeling my social bar is full.
A team mate gave me a call about a message I'd been sent and it was good to be able to share some of my frustration.
Am enjoying the crochet, happy to have hobbies. And crochet enables me to either watch TV or listen to audiobooks as I'm doing it.
Am happy.

Work
Team meeting was a laugh.
Had plenty to do and got a few things crossed off the list. Managed to get updates on a few longer term items to discuss with the boss.
Managed to resist chocolate and sweets all day, minimal evening snacking (crisps and fruit). Husband got me crisps and I remembered frizen berries.
Made pilates and managed it up til dinner arrived. Did better than expected after a long break.
Husband got me crispy duck because I didn't want satay. Is chicken left over for my lunch tomorrow.
Have finished the square I was on and am ready to start a new pattern.
Have done enough hours this week for a short day tomorrow, & either pilates or the woods.
Remembered to phone friend, she was thrilled I called in to see her.

Recovery
Thankful for being able to sleep in and start late. That I had plenty enough to fill the day workwise and still leave early. That I got a spot in the carpark I wanted and got nose studs and had a little bit of a walk.
Got cash out, no queue at the cashpoint. That drinks in the bar gave me more carpark change.
Husband donated to colleague's leaving collection and I remembered to sign the card from us. That the drinks are early and local so we'll go for a little bit
Am enjoying the crochet squares and have plenty of wool. That I can keep decluttering the squares as donations, along with any of the wool I don't want. That I can be as adventurous or not with the crafting. For YouTube and tutorials and having access to learn the things I'm interested in and the squares is a good way to practice.
That I quit work early enough for a nap and was fine for gaming. That we've managed to arrange another weekend session to finish our taxes.
