Stories

Thankful for feeling better today.

For having slept well and getting through the day.

More work appeared so I have plenty to do.

For the library being open late & having somewhere warm & comfortable to sit & wait.

That I picked up some interesting books.

Got feedback about my story & actually have some ideas for how to develop it & am looking forward to editing it (normally I have no interest in that).

For a friend who's been helping me with stories.

Got the Christmas decorations down & have managed to part with a few more items, am dropping them off tomorrow.

Reached out to a friend about the charity drop off & she showed me exactly where it is & gave me the opening times.

Husband is going to fill my advent calendar for me, he's so sweet like that.

Social

Thankful I got up in time for work.  We left early so there was time for defrosting the car.  Husband just grabbed a scraper and started on it.

IT helpdesk was manned so I got my new headphones hassle free.   Really easily.  Got back to the office in time to join the others for breakfast, & husband came too.  He saved me the better seat.  Relieved we got seats, & the bacon was really good.

The talk was OK, & someone took my plates for me so I didn't have to queue.

Enjoyed chatting with team mate and we had a good laugh.   Also got a walk at lunch since it was dry.

A bonus walk to the chippie for husband's dinner and so I got my 10k steps today.

Asked the boss what to work on next and looks like I'm getting a fun task. 

Flexible so got to leave work in light and without traffic.

Have had more energy this week.  Been managing to stay working for the 6 hour days.  

Am also very happy we can afford the heating, & food.  We do well for both necessities and luxuries.

That when I give husband my advent train he will fill it from my crystal collection for me.  If I asked him to he would buy me a new advent calendar.

Everyday

Thankful I was home for the nuts delivery.  The new ones he got are great.  Thankful we have money for treats, and necessities, esp the heating 

That it was dry for my walk to the shop and I picked up husband's prescription no bother.

Managed to get to the end of the first document and address all the comments - phew.

Husband cancelled his appointment so I got to stay home and relax, an evening of the sims.

Tutor acknowledged my flash fiction entry.

Seem to better energy wise, haven't napped in a few days.

Energy

Had more energy today.  

Got up early and wrote my flash fiction (glad that's out the way, thankful for friends proof reading it).

Also did some decluttering, shredding, & we changed the bedding.

Got out to the woods with friend, glad she's feeling better.  Made it round before dark.

The curry husband made it yummy.

He's fine with us passing on the game I didn't like.  Have done well to just dislike out from the collection.

Thankful we got the house, & that we're cosy inside.  For husband's storage solutions and organising skills.

Workshop

Glad it was easy to find.  Somewhere handy to turn round and check the map.

That I got a parking space.  Reversing sensors behaved as I was backing out.

The soup and bread was nice.  Happy to have something I like to eat.

Liked the people and found the course fascinating.  She reminded me of Sandra a bit.

Husband has made more curry, yummy.

Was impressed by how much I'd taken in and when we were talking about it in the kitchen I had informed more readily remembered than people who were looking through their notes.  Reminds me I'm competent.

Running through the behaviours showed me how much I've grown / outgrown.  Also there are loads of character ideas there.

Watched another playthrough and looking forward to tomorrow's gaming season with husband.

Weekend

My document drama is resolved for now - phew. Didn't take much effort.

We got husband's prescription sorted & collected

Glad we're not on a timer for lunch and that it was dry for the walk.

He is very taken with the cake.

I got some editing done and started typing up a new story.  

Course to look forward to tomorrow and i have cash and place is easy to find.

Did my washing.

  

Social

Thankful I went to work with husband.  Enjoyed being in and socialising.  Also finished the thing I was working on.

That I suggested a walk to team mate and the 3 of us went over to the canteen for a break.  It was pleasant having the break and the catch up.

Also had a good discussion with one in unfortunate circumstances and was able to offer storage room if needed.  Also when husband arrived back I told him and he said of course, then asked how much stuff.  I love that he thinks on that order.  Is good to be able to offer. 

That he was running a bit late and so I was still working when my updates got rejected.  Mad rush to get it fixed and the boss knows I did my best to get everything through in time.

Also that I'm usually on top of everything and the other stuff I'm working on is under control.

That the guest speaker's class was enjoyable.  I'd been thinking of ducking class, glad I went.  And because she was talking about her classes in the break I knew to take a business card and have signed up to online classes next year.

The car tyre pressure has sorted itself out.
