Was thinking of going to the gym but Jesus Christ it's cold

Edit: OK apparently I'm not going to the gym because I've just prepared myself a hot chai. Great

Pizza sauce made, now waiting on the dough in the breadmaker. With 20 mins to go, it's looking a bit wetter than I'd like at this stage of the cycle.

How are you gonna dress the pizza?

Day 21 of exercises completed. Kids are still home sick. Mr Peeler also unwell, woke me up for medicine during the night and I didn't get back to sleep properly. Then when I did finally get back to sleep I had a weird dream that I was wetting the bed, which was so vivid I awoke immediately and launched outta bed and checked. I used to have dreams like that when I was a kid, but haven't had one like it for literally decades. Very disquieting way to begin the day!

it’s 0C outside. I’m very awake. Not sure if I should get up.

Have a fire going in the fireplace full bore thanks to those wax firefighters and the column heater going because Sammi made straight for my lap as soon as I sat down.
Sammi is basking on my legs and Zooks is stretched out on her side with her back to the heater and her front to the fire.
I just hope these cold mornings are over by the time I go back to work.

🎼🎶I'm addicted to stress, that's the way that I get things done,
If I'm not under pressure then I sleep too long,
And I hang around like a bum,
I think I'm goin' nowhere, and that makes me nervous.

Everybody's out to get me but I feel alright,
Everybody's out to get me but I feel alright,
Everybody's out to get me but I feel alright,
Everybody's thinkin' 'bout me!
It's the little things that get you,
It's the little things that get you when you work in addiction.
It's the little things that get you,
It's the little things that get you,
It's the little things that get you when you work in addiction 🎶🎶

I slept poorly. I am not running at 100%.
I made a mistake yesterday afternoon and am wasting time today correcting it.
My August 31 deadline feels a lot closer this week than it did a week ago.

Today is a struggle.

[–] Llabyrinthine@aussie.zone 6 points 2 years ago

Damnit, sucked into Alice in Borderland S2. Should have been in Snoozeland hours ago. Pray for me. Today’s work gave me a raging headache. Tomorrow might just lay me flat.

[–] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 6 points 2 years ago

Struggling so badly with fatigue and being woken up also didn’t help. Cheers for shouting outside my house at 2.30am cunt. I would possibly have been able to sleep through the night without that

Just over an hour left. I can do this. I can. Really. Or I just can just type random things and hope my boss thinks I'm writing important emails. An occasional mutter thrown in here or there.

Such a beautiful sunny day. I will get some of that healing sunshine. :) Time for a walk.

This morning I am thankful for undercover parking.
