For the first weekend in about two months, I have no decorating plans and nobody visiting. It’s bliss! We’re going to our friends’ house for dinner (and missing Fenino, boo) but otherwise the day is looking pretty quiet. Going to make a big fry up. And ignore the cricket.
Got a cold so I’m not sure if I’ll do everything I had planned today but there’s a free carol service at the cathedral, a Christmas fair at the library and a winter craft day at the garden centre.
Jnr slept 8pm-3am, the longest stretch ever! Of course I was convinced she was dead so I didn’t sleep myself, then had to get up to let my friend in whose staying. I’m knackered but everyone else is well rested.
My mother delivered a load of baby pictures of me to Wor Lass when The Child was born. People spent as much time looking at them as they did cooing at the actual baby.
Weather is cold.
My hair is long overdue a cut but I don’t have time until Thursday.
Nice day today, went for a run, came home and messed around in the plug.dj room which was kinda fun. Over to my sister’s place to baby sit her kids as part of her birthday present (concept was basically ‘have some money to go out, and I’ll watch the kids’). Which was fun (they are turning into a GBOLs) but also terrifying (how do you parents do it, also how do nappies even work?).
Then sis and her husband came home with some delicious burgers and we had beers on the deck in the sun.
At work from 9am to 5:30pm. This week has been shit but almost looking forward to an easier day. I’ve done just about everything else but what my job involves this week.
Had afternoon off work and went ‘Christmas shopping’ in Birmingham - finished up drinking red wine in a couple of bars then ambling round the Bullring for half an hour. Then went out for a curry with the badminton club and had several Cobras and brandies. Made the short walk home (4 miles) in about 45 mins, but I had my ‘beer coat’ on so it was fine.
Not much on today apart from Derby v Villa
Morning. Looks like will be cancelled today as our Astro is the one place in the city where the snow hasn’t melted. Not sure was to do with myself if it is.
@NoahVale you walk 4 miles at the speed I can run it
