Work

Thankful my energy levels were good today.

That it was a sunny day & the others agreed to sit outside, & it was pleasant out there.  That it stayed dry for the walk.

That I had the sense to check the email for the document contact & discover she's on maternity leave so I got to choose someone else.

That the person husband wanted to speak to was in the office so I was able to tell husband & he got done what he needed to.

That I made Pilates, & enjoyed it.  That my parcel arrived while we were home.

That my idea was right for the calculation, and it should be possible to sort out what the error is. 

Team mate will give me a hand with the coding / calculations so maybe I can catch up.  The project has been pushed back anyway so there're currently no deadlines.

That I remembered the towels were in the washer & they're hung now rather than going stale in the machine.

Friends

Mum's friend phoned so we had a quick chat, very blessed to have her in my life.

That I enjoyed the catch-up with old acquaintance today, & chatting with a few friends.

Pleased I got one of my cross stitch projects finished, & have refined the pattern.

That I resisted buying books I don't need and discovered a more suitable (colouring) book.  Also pleased with myself for resisting buying any more courses.

That I got to the woods early when it was quiet, & had an enjoyable time there.  That I was brave enough to climb the tree & have a sit there too.

That I've just remembered the bunny, thankful that I can now go & put her away for the night.

Inspired

Thankful for a lie-in, & that husband has snack bars so I had one in the supermarket carpet.  That he automatically gets bunny treats, & is reminding me to take my tablets.

That volunteering was fun, it was another social session, & I've been chatting with a few friends today.

That I got out to show my face at the clean-up & got to chat with someone for a few mins.  & then came home for a nap.  That I have few obligations & am free to nap mostly whenever I want.

That friend has realised she's burning out & can take the necessary steps.

That I am pleased with myself over a calculation I've coded for work, & it's giving me something to look forward to workwise next week.

That I've realised I've miscounted in my project and have the chance to rectify / improvise around it without any unpicking.

That I was asleep so husband didn't make me hot chocolate (have eaten far too much and rejecting a hot chocolate after he'd made it would hurt his feelings).

Grateful

Thankful to get my document flow completed - it'll be live soon.  That mentor buddy was free to help and we had a nice chat.  I also had a good chat with another team mate at tier, & then an actual work meeting.  Husband says my name came up in a meeting earlier, connected with all the work I've been doing on the calculations & the explanation doc that's now completed.

That I finally got round to coding some calculations, and I love the satisfaction of figuring them out & then getting them to work.  There's less work in it that I thought.

That I spoke to my boss for a few mins, he's happy enough with me & my work to want me to stay on & wanted to know if I would before he puts lots of effort into pushing for a contract extension.

That I nearly have friend's present finished, & I've enjoyed stitching it.  That I had a slow conversation volunteering so I had plenty of stitching time, & enjoying swapping songs with one of the supervisors.  That I had texter and supervisor feedback waiting for me today.

That I managed a full day yesterday & today, & have my mojo back.

Home

Thankful that I could lie in & get up whenever, that work is flexible hours.
That the work I did yesterday gave me a head start today, & I've managed to sort out the issues I had.
That husband looks after me, & reminded me to take my tablets tonight, that he's cut melon up for me and cares for me.  That he's put the picture up for me, even adding the fixings to do so.
That we have the house & are safe & comfortable.
That I had a pleasant chat with sister in law, she's good to talk to.

Day off

Thankful to have the day off, & that I made up some time to get a head start tomorrow.

That on second look the comments aren't that bad & I've at least got started.

That I remembered all the bits for my cross stitch so I enjoyed waiting for husband at the supermarket.
Glad I got friend's card posted, & that I didn't need to join the queue for the post office.

That husband got more fruit at the supermarket.  That he's kind & patient.

That I got to the woods & the swings were free so I had a go in them.

Energy

Thankful to have some energy today, that I got up & got the requests cleared.  That mentor buddy was around to check my work.

That I got to ask my question at tier, & discovered how to see comments in my documents.  That mentor buddy was free to explain some stuff to me.  & then I spent the afternoon working on edits.  I got some answers from the boss too so I have a way forward for tomorrow / Thursday.

That starting so early meant I could do a bit extra & still finish at a reasonable time, & that we had dinner nice & early.  That husband puts the effort in to make meals I'll like.

That I had a quick lie down before therapy & was fine, & that the session went well.  Glad I can afford it, & have the time for it.

That I remembered the TABI social & didn't miss anything by being late.

That I'm enjoying the tiger cross stitch, and managed to compensate for the mistakes I've made.
