How goes it? I am fatigued but in a spirit of mild jovial merriment.
That won’t last though.
Off to work this morning already, still basking in trying warm glow of Hendon winning 3-0 last night. And whilst the scoreline was a little flattering, it was nice to see Stasi like ruthlessness in front of goal.
Early finish today, the ferrying les enfants (not Les Enfants) around.
Nothing like the warm glow of a good sporting victory
Off to a fasting blood test, desperate for breakfast. The kid is with his dad today, think I might make some cookies between the various admin and household tasks. Exciting stuff.
Just in from my third nightshift on the bounce. Pretty tired right now. Drive back across the downs was lovely though. Everything shrouded in mist in the dim morning light.
Gonna sleep until 11ish then walk to Waitrose to get milk and breakfast as there’s nothing in. Nothing else planned.
Hope the blood test eventually comes back okay - I had one of these recently, it was only 12-hours nil-by-mouth, which I often achieve unwittingly. However, having been told unequivocally to do so, I found it the worst kind of purgatory!
What kind of cookies are you likely to be baking? I like chocolate chip, just for the record.
Got up early enough to shower and eat brekko and still leave the house at 7:30 this morning, quite a feat for me. Nowt else going on. Need more coffee.
Kind of hope the test shows something up, rather than being left with the doctor telling me they don’t know what is causing the problem. So long as it is something nice and treatable, obviously…
Cookies will be oat raisin, sorry! If I have time some ginger biscuits too because they are for the people at my book club tomorrow and there is a guy who only eats those, I don’t want him to feel left out.
One of the first names up on the call board here is Seaford, what a name!
My mum brought back a wonderfully grotesque pumpkin from her allotment yesterday, apparently she has a bigger one growing too so I am hoping that lasts for Halloween.
I will get you a snap of it later, though it isn’t massive or beer-fed sadly. I would definitely get one/several of those cool decorative ones you saw
Blood test was successful, surprisingly I stayed totally calm despite having had several panic attacks recently over far less. They had to take four vials of the stuff too. Almost makes me think I could try giving blood, I am sure a pouch of the old A negative could be useful for someone…
