Morning, mumpers! It’s currently 6c/43f with no predicted change, and cloudy. Weather app says “Your moves are fucking weak, sun. You need to fucking do better.” No sign of any sunlight today, we did get a glimmer yesterday though.
Cookie glad to hear the new seat got installed for you, must be an xmas gift from maintenance.
Flyboy I hope yesterday was uneventful for you and you didn’t damage anything else!
I wouldn’t want to chance 7hrs driving in that kind of weather, especially as you can’t be sure of what is at the other end. Maybe the “wintry mix” on the way will have become full-scale blizzard by the time you get there, and you’d be stuck.
Fingers and paws crossed for you! I’m sorry it involved a panic, and a complaint about someone else too.
I’m glad you’re feeling a bit better now, certainly hot water and steam can do wonders for congestion!
You have not become wimpier! You’re making a sensible decision based on what your body tells you. After all that walking, and being in pain, getting the bus home is totally the right thing to do.
Same here! I like to see bright and shiny decorations, everything looks so cheerful when the days are dark and gloomy. But we don’t decorate at home, ‘‘im indoors can’t be bothered, and I sometimes find all the bright and shiny a bit overwhelming so it’s nice to have calm and peace at home.
I was “working” yesterday, we were all at home as there was absolutely no point opening the office. We poked senior management and were allowed to log off just after 3pm. I’d already been to do most of the grocery shopping at lunchtime, so logged off and went to the gym. They have a new door entry system (those of you on FB will have seen my little rant about it). Previously they issued a keyfob thing that you tapped on the box by the door, and it worked.
The new system requires an app. That was my first source of annoyance’, ‘cos the keyfob thing worked just fine for me. I downloaded the app, set up an account which was a faff in itself, and saved a pic of the instructions issued by the gym. I went to use it yesterday and had trouble getting in (a very nice guy who had just come out was kind enough to let me in). The new system requires the app to be open (even though it says you don’t need to), it also needs internet, bluetooth, location and NFC to be enabled. Honestly, it’s just overcomplicated nonsense.
I went home via the pet store to get some cat littler, and some Muffin food, then stopped to get petrol. When I got back, I fed the cats, cleaned litter trays, gathered up recycling and emptied that into the biiiiig bin which then got hauled to the kerb. The dustcart came round at 7.30am so the biiiiig bin has been hauled back to where it lives.
Today’s plan is to do the last of the xmas food shopping, ‘im indoors wants to come along so we’ll do that this morning. Then we can go to our respective gyms in the afternoon. My turn to cook tonight, I took some chicken out of the freezer so it’ll either be chicken curry, or tarragon chicken. Haven’t decided yet.
I have decided that I will not be mad if the pie is gotten into before Thursday. Ya gotta pick your battles after all. doggio will be glad to know that sup will be beastloaf in honor of Festivus, along with green beans, mac ‘n cheese, and rolls. The beastloaf is already cooked and just needs to thaw and be warmed.
