Work

Thankful I had the morning off, & that I made it to the team meeting.  

That I had the space to speak up about the thing we were all supposed to read, and the boss took over the explanation.  & that I said I was away for a long lunch, so they knew.  & then I had a better afternoon because I came back calmer.

That I thought to ask the right question in a discussion later, and that I came back unprompted after dinner to take over from workmate, & it was simple & there was nothing for me to do.  Had a quick discussion with the boss, and answered another of his questions (I love being on the ball).

Just remembered to write my todo list for tomorrow, & maybe I'll get in to see people.  I've left it open so I can decide in the morning.

That I allowed a long lunch, & enjoyed being at the woods.  That I took the time to sit & pay attention to what was going on & saw a couple of red squirrels, & one even stayed still for a photo.  

Jeans

Thankful that I had the morning off to settle myself.  That I managed to redirect my energy into something more productive than jiggling.  & I finally remembered to oil the door hinges.

That husband talked me into getting new jeans & they arrived & they fit, & one style was in stock for me to get a second pair, & there was another style really cheap.  That I remembered to hang the washing.

That I had a good idea and a meeting & was right.  That I managed to get the urgent tasks for the day done, and that I'm calmer about the things I won't get done on time - well no-one else seems to care, I'm not going to be the only one.

That it was nice weather at lunch & husband came for a walk, & I remembered to post the zoom link & the others replied to say they'd rather enjoy the sunshine.

That I made it to the tarot social & it was quite good fun.  That zoom exists and I have ways of keeping in touch with friends.

Sleep

Thankful to have a half day so I could stay in bed this morning.  That choosing to do the computer stuff over the team meeting was the right choice (as confirmed by the boss) & that he was available after & rang me.  That my boss is sound, & understanding, & reiterated that I can disappear whenever I want, just let him know.  He also told me to take it easy & just do what I can.

That I managed to get the urgent thing finished & even had a joke with someone.

That husband took me for a walk & it stayed dry while we were out.

That I made it to Pilates and my shoulder was fine.

That the conference call was straight forward & being able to pass control is a neat feature that made things much easier.

Husband

Thankful husband is as sweet and caring as he is, & that he looks after me.  

That I haven't been as tempted by the chocolate today, & that I've eaten some fruit.

That the woods is within range, & even in the rain I enjoy being there.  That it's starting to get green and there are flowers blooming. 

For the library books I've been enjoying, and having plenty to read.

That I remembered to speak to my mum and dad and they're both well.

That I've texted my boss and can sleep in tomorrow without concern.

Hope

Thankful I got up & took my tablet, & that I haven't had any side effects today.  That it's the weekend & I can nap as much as I want, & even if it was a week day, my boss is cool with me taking the time I need.

That the hope & the weekend & possibly the tablet (unlikely on day 1) have me feeling better.

That I've got my mojo back & even created a grid for a friend.  That I've remembered how much I enjoy choosing which bracelet(s) to wear, and can add that to my suggestion list.

That the pet store had bunny clippers so I can get on with that next time husband's free.

That I got the woods & it was fairly quiet, I got my 10k steps, & to play on the swings.  That I can make the nest swing swing.  That the weather held while I was there.

That husband remembered my milk, & my carton of juice.

Friday

Thankful I got to speak to the doctor, & that I've got my new tablets to try.  

That the chemists had them in stock and I've got them ready to take tomorrow, at the weekend so if I react badly no-one needs to know.  That my boss already knows I'm not at my best right now & has said if I need time away to just let him know & then take it.  That husband is around & knows how to look after me.  That he takes good care of me.

That I've been using my blog as a kind of diary and tags make it easy to go back and review so I have a better understanding of what happened when I started on the other tablets.

That a friend noticed I'm up later than usual and is checking I'm ok.  Thankful for all the support I have.

I got my 10,000 steps, glad because I was intending to get that many & had forgotten.

Work

Thankful my shoulder hurts less today.

That I got to spend the day with a few team mates & it felt like a productive day.  That we had a nice chat as we walked around at lunch, & I enjoyed the noodles I got (& had a sensible portion).  That I mostly got left alone to get on with what I was doing.  That it was dry at lunch.

That we got finished the tasks that we had to be onsite for, which means I can spend tomorrow afternoon waiting for the doctor to phone again, & I've paid for it tonight so I don't need to remember it tomorrow.

That there were few enough of us in that I got a chair, & managed a bit more of the document reconciliation that I've been working through.

That workmate suggested I speak to QA about something & the manager was in our office & had a few minutes.  I like her advice & will deal with it tomorrow.

That husband cut up melon for me so I've had that tonight instead of chocolate, & I resisted cake too.
