Space

Thankful to be able to message the boss to say I'm starting late
& that I was able to get myself recovered enough to work
One of the biggest tasks is no longer needed - what a relief!  Also that I hadn't put any work into it before it got cancelled
Managed to complete the thing I was aiming to finish today, & sooner than I expected so I have some space
Have a made a decent start on the next task, & realised & intercepted something that could have been an issue, thankfully no impact
Have the weekend to plod along with that, to take some pressure off next week
Enjoyed updating my challenge status & getting new badges

Treats

Managed a calm conversation with the boss 

Know how to take care of myself - a trip to the gardens, the woods, bed with crystals...  

They sell crystals at the gardens

Thankful I have the freedom to step away from the computer and take time out

Have finally made some progress and the boss appreciates what I have done

People have been leaving me alone

Feeling better 

Finished the white of the cows, now for their black splotches - have been quite enjoying the painting 

Friends

Friend came round for lunch and we had a good chat

She brought brownies - yummy

The fresh bread arrived in time for lunch 

Workmate agreed with my findings, so there a couple of calculations we can drop

Glad I work from home so I can hide from everyone 

Remembered to phone for my tablets in time to collect them for tonight's 

Husband enjoyed his burger 

Gaming was fun, glad I went 

Calmer

Relieved to get the hardest protocol done ans out for review

Things feel calmer today - like maybe we will get there on time 

The previous protocol came back with minimal comments so that was easily resolved and is back out for approval 

Workmate is working tomorrow so I can push things through sooner than I thought

Workmate and boss have been progressing my items as a priority and i've been left alone 

Glad I work from home and don't have to deal with anyone

Friend is coming for lunch tomorrow - be good to catch up but also for me not to have to go anywhere 

Made it the welcome seminar, course will be fine

Also made ball class which was fun 

Remembered the animals in the big box amd have separated them from the 2P box for painting, have been enjoying the painting

Also glad I started with the meeples because I don't think i'm interested enough to paint minis. 

Taking action

Husband made toast cos he knew we were inn a rush 

Made it to work in time for the first thing & it went ok 

Husband was free for breakfast and I got some calm with him  

The bacon and hash brown did me good 

Had a reasonable chat with the boss, kept reasonably cool

Off to the woods

Got a good chunk of work done after the woods, enough to be calm about the rest of the week

Weather was good for the woods - glad I went

Made it to pilates (most of the session)

Husband ordered Chinese as a treat 

 

Beach

The weather was lovely
I have a comfy reliable car & am happy driving - loving the freedom to be able to take off for the day
Found the beach & there was plenty of parking - enjoyed my splodge in the sea
Feeling a lot calmer after
They have decent toilets & hand washing facilities
Found my way home without needing the satnav - will be able to find my way there now too
Gaming was good, is nice to be invited & be part of a group.  Also proud of myself for admitting I'm not going to any of the pub sessions
Checked my phone just as husband was asking about ordering dinner, & he ordered me some

Woods

Got myself to the woods and felt better afterwards

The weather was mild, dry, & a lovely blue sky

The coffee van was still serving so I got a cuppa and had a seat to linger longer

Have made a nice start on the UX module

Gaming plans confirmed

Managed to print onto card - enjoying colouring in a new game
