Thanks. I have train tickets reserved for 10am tomorrow from Carlisle to London Heathrow, and then a 10:30pm flight with Virgin Atlantic to SA. But all this is dependent on getting my PCR results back today and hope they're negative - hence my feeling of being in limbo

Woke up at 3:40am and couldn’t go back to sleep but my eldest came in about 20 minutes later so snuggled him until I got up for work at 5:30, went to Sainsbury’s on my break for some lunch but ended up buying myself a pack of 4 ripples instead because #health, cried because Greg James was playing “Everglow” by Coldplay on 10 min takeover and I went to a funeral of a close Aunt yesterday so had a good sob at that, working until 6 then off to pick some presents up for my boys from a good friend, will be nice to see her face because haven’t seen her so long! Will then go home, overhype the boys before their bedtime then wish I hadn’t even bothered to say hi eat some dinner and probably go to bed because I am knackered aaaaand then I’m off for the Christmas period so yay.

 

[bolimepipi]

woke up quite late because last night my neighbours had a FULL ON PARTY in lockdown until 3 am
so i got up quite grumpy and tidied the house to make myself feel better
made a nice late brunch and coffee for me and bf and it was ready just as he came back from the doctors
we played 1 board game and 1 video game after that
no lunch today due to the late brunch but we will have soup for early dinner
then i realized that when 2 days ago stupid google was down, i stopped receiving emails
so then i was catching up on work emails while bf was cleaning and tidying the balcony
the cat was chasing a fly for hours, she was fun to watch and put me in a better mood
also got some bad news today so definitely not feeling the best in general but the cat is a joy to watch
bf is now on the way for his second doctors appointment of the day so while he's there i will wallow in sadness on the couch haha
hoping to have a nice cozy evening after a crappy day

 

[Poptart]

Same as usual these days! Feels like groundhog Day.....
Fed kids, dogs and horses
Mucked out horses
Hoovered and cleaned kitchen
Had something to eat
Made kids lunch
About to walk the dogs then will get the horses back in and watch a Christmas film with the kids.
Huge pile of washing to put away but might ignore that a bit longer

Haven’t really done anything in the house today as work has been so busy, I’m only just managing to log off in time to leave for school. However I finish tomorrow until the new year (6 days into it in fact!)

I don’t know about others who are working from home, but I feel like annual leave is much more welcomed, which seems a bit backwards. I think it’s because it’s harder to switch off from without it being in the same place you’d usually chill!

My son ha put The Grinch on for us to watch before tea and he’s doing some colouring on the iPad whilst I look for Christmas food ideas.

My only other aim for tonight is to get my book finished.

[LittleMy]

Did my weekly Covid test at the end of my shift this morning before changing and heading home.
Got in, went straight for a quick shower/pjs on. Put uniform in wash.
Ironed clothes for the kids while OH got them washed etc.
Took a few pictures of my son in his Christmas jumper (school party was today) and sent to my mum.
OH did school run while I had breakfast with little one and tidied up the mess, took out washing etc.
Went to bed around 10 as couldn’t keep my eyes open any longer, fell straight asleep.
Woke around 3 just as OH and kids came back from the school pickup.
Cuddled up on the sofa with 5yo, who told me all about his party and meeting Santa.
Did a puzzle with little one (tried to, he ran away with all the pieces).
Making dinner atm and having a cup of tea whilst OH shows me the bargains he picked up in Aldi. It’s all cleaning products, he told me it’s my Christmas present. We laughed and then I killed him.
Jokes. Though I did threaten to take his back to the shop.
Back to work at 8, so will chill for a bit before I have to get ready. Looking forward to my weekend off.

Got woke up about a hour before my alarm. Stepdaughters birthday he had to get up to go see her open her presents and take her to school (fair enough but went down after her bedtime last night to set up and didn't get in till 11.30 and went at 6 this morning) might as well of slept there.
Asked for a photo of her enjoying her morning about 8.45 heard nothing back. Worked till 6 have heard nothing from partner. Walked home come in to fridge wide open and a toilet full of tit (so he's been home).
Tidied up going in bath. Don't mind being left out its her birthday but gets to me that he will turn up or ring when he's 20minutes away for me to put tea on

Sat down at my desk and worked on some stuff until about 4.00 pm.
Reorganised my cupboards while putting the shopping away.
Had dinner.
Sorted my poster wall as I wanted to put up a Paul McCartney one up.
Now I'm just going to browse the internet and watch some YouTube.

 

[Causewaygal]

Learnt how to print labels at long last and created some voucher codes for my business customers for the new year ...
Dropped 27 parcels off then headed to the shops for rabbit supplies and some new lights for the hall and landing.
spent the evening having a stomp about the new NI lockdown proposals before deciding to eat two dinners

Oh, that's a mood

 

[Apple In My Pie]

Called the bank to cancel my card after my Uber eats was hacked and someone helped themselves to £170 worth of food. (Bank are sorting it but Uber have done sweet nothing)
Fell down the stairs and have hurt my foot. It has been a very eventful evening!
