Woke up rested and on time for once, it hasn't been happening in ages. Had breakfast; got some work done and sorted out some emails.
Listened to my audiobook and killed time until I had to leave home to run some errands.
Went to the bank, stopped by the office to sort some things out.
Went to the supermarket to get some bits and bobs, nothing too necessary but I felt like a grocery splurge. Walked everywhere today and all the walking in the cold did me good, it was well under 0 degrees today but I don't mind.
Came back home, had a fish sandwich and coleslaw for lunch. Got more work done, finished my audiobook, took a nap (joys of being able to work from home). Ignored all the things I should do (emptying the dishwasher, laundry, hoovering etc.), had a snack of cheese and rye crackers instead.
Then I went ahead and had another sandwich which didn't agree with me at all, so I've spent all evening with a stomach ache.
Watched some tv and tattled. Did my skincare for once.
Going to have an early night and start my new audiobook, which I seem to prefer for bedtime "reading".

Sorry to hear it’s all a bit unsettled for you, have you been able to reschedule your flight?
Had a bit more energy today so got up at 8.30, showered and did some PhD chapter writing.
Stopped at lunchtime to put a chicken casserole in slow cooker.
Did some more work, walked to postbox to post my Covid test.
Had tea, now watching tv and tattling. Will go for a shower soon and do skincare, then watch the last few episodes of gossip girl.

I have a flight booked for next Saturday with Air France to London. I hope it doesn't get cancelled like last Saturday with KLM, my mother is doing my head in
Fingers crossed it will happen for you. Living with our parents, once we are used to not living with them, is extremely difficult.I have a flight booked for next Saturday with Air France to London. I hope it doesn't get cancelled like last Saturday with KLM, my mother is doing my head in

Haven't had a drink for a few days so felt more energized this morning. Up and properly ready for work by 9. Tackled work and home school multiplication (there are 4 DIFFERENT METHODS these days) then gave up. Watched an episode of This is Us then back to work. Had a bolognaise in the slow cooker for tea. Went to Tesco in a torrential downpour, now relax.

I've froze the chilli 
Decided after over a decade of living at the same property to remove all the grass from my large garden, bought meadow seeds and with only myself and a pitchfork I've calculated it'll be done by end of spring if I do a few square metres a day. Can't wait to see it. Never done this before so fingers crossed grass don't grow back 
Oh no! Is it actually broken?Had a headache all day but we move

Homeschool. Ended in tears. He actually said you’re making me cry shouting at me
Guess I’m not cut out to be a teacher.

More home school. I didn’t make him cry this time.
Made salmon veg and potato’s for dinner.
Carried on working until 10pm

Sat around waiting for first shift back at work worked 4pm till 12.30am. Got given q lift home bonus no taxi fare to fork out. But work person had the noisiest car and its his turn to sleep in front bedroom with the bay window so I got in brush my teeth at kitchen sink creept upstairs had a pee heard him pick his phone up and say for duck sake. Trying to sleep back in a 9 in morning and I have to get up at 7. But I know he will be arguing with me tomorrow being 40minutes late home suppost to finish at 12.
Yeah! He has been helping his friend with his gardening business while his pub is closedOh no! Is it actually broken?
So he jumped out of the work van and smacked his foot against the kurb! The bone was popped out
Woke up at 4:30am, thanks to my dad who said the air con system in the house had packed up, and would I know how to fix it!!!??
It's not even my house, but after a glance at the online instructions/problem solving, I managed to get it back up and running. Dad said thanks, but mother didn't say anything
Went out for a run. It was just going to be a boring 10 miler, but the more I thought about sharing the same roof with my mother the more annoyed I became, and ended up just shy of 18 miles.
Had a shower, but didn't change into my usual clothes. Instead I put on my thin dressing gown, and kept a hand towel wrapped round my wet head of hair before sitting down to breakfast with M&D (just to wind my mother up!)
As expected my mother kicked off about my attire, and another argument ensued, with dad just keeping his head down
Flounced into bedroom with lots of faux drama; got dressed and drove out to Pretoria for my 2nd PCR test in 7 days. Should get the results within 48 hours.
Drove to Rustenburg and spent a couple of hours at the Kgaswane Nature Reserve, just to clear my head before returning to Roodepoort.
Didn't bother with lunch, but focusing on some IT work, while Teaming G/f
Counting the days!

You've done well to last this long. My parents would wreck me so much. My Mum was on the phone last night complaining that she has to drive a whole 4 miles for her vaccine. I snapped and told her to be grateful she has a free vaccine at all. I really hope I'm not like that when I'm older.Woke up at 4:30am, thanks to my dad who said the air con system in the house had packed up, and would I know how to fix it!!!??

Finished 3rd nightshift in a row.
Came home, washed and changed into fresh pjs. Put uniform in wash and sat with kids while they ate breakfast, chatting to them.
Helped 5yo do some home learning activities, then OH took over so I went to sit with 3yo who was watching CBeebies. Cuddled up with him on the couch, smelling his freshly washed hair, feeling very comfy and must’ve fell asleep because I woke up to OH complaining that my tea had gone cold - wasn’t even aware he’d made me a cup.
Upstairs now and I’m wide awake for some bloody reason. Just can’t switch off.
No work until the weekend now, will try to nap soon and have a proper sleep tonight.
