I finally got my Covid vaccine after missing out on it at work due to poor communication from management. I work in a care home.
My friend is an absolute star!
Not only did she keep an eye on my house and car during my 6 weeks with my parents in South Africa, but she has just brought me another bag of groceries (I'm self isolating), including essentials like chocolate, wine, a cream cake, more chocolate, crisps, rum and raisin ice cream .... oh and milk, eggs, ham, bacon and bread
A true friend to have in difficult times

I got promoted! Due to the pandemic I had written it off and thought it wouldn’t happen but it did!
I was always sooooo paranoid about weaning my son. I guess it's because I've always had issues with food myself (an ED when I was in high school) and today I was sat with him while he was munching away eating his cheese, spinach and sweetcorn omelette i had made him for lunch, laughing & smiling at me, devouring it, I felt really proud of myself. Like a proper proud Mum moment 
Won a IT tender worth about £15k for a new client in Carlisle. They want to spend about £70k on new hardware, and they want me to do a project plan, a budget feasibility, and then to buy and install the tin.
Project starts mid February, and lasts 5 months

I found out I was 5’6 at the doctor’s today (went on a machine that did height/weight/blood pressure). I always thought I was 5’5... every inch helps 
It hasn't happened yet but later on I'll be joining a zoom call to watch my Mum receive an award (which she doesn't know she'll be receiving yet) from the owners of the residential care home for people for dementia which she manages. She's managed the home so well through this pandemic so well in that there has not been 1 single case of covid in her home since it began. I am so proud of her.
That’s lovely and a brilliant achievement for her
My girlfriend cemented our relationship with an engagement ring last night.
She proposed just before Christmas via Zoom (I was with my parents in SA at the time). But now to actually have a ring on my finger has really hit home that we've taken this relationship to another level.
Extremely proud and honoured of course, but now I guess the hard work begins

- I got up early and had 2 cups of tea and a scroll in peace
- My kids finished all their homeschool work by 12 whilst I worked from home.
- I ate an amazing cheese toastie.
Yes, I will, although I don't really know whether she likes something loud and flashy, or something like mine - demure and understated.
Odd thing today..
A power bank failed to charge after a couple of tries with various chargers and cables, it's fucked!!
The GOOD thing about this is that I've owned this power bank for 8 years and it's been used a lot
so I've got my money's worth out of it. I bought a second power bank, same make a couple of years
later, it would be interesting how long that lasts before it will no longer charge.
