Yesterday I worked a solid 15hrs (deadlines, what can I say) Started at 6am this morning & was done with our submission by 11:30. Told the Eng I was bailing for the day. Went to collect some parcels. And then bought 2 new books. Because. Punchdrunk tired.

Trying to convince myself that I don't need to buy a new book just because I've convinced myself to clean my flat today. It's not looking promising.

My Scrabble app's April Fool's Day daily puzzle was all the words backwards. It took me an embaressingly long time to figure it out 😊

I'm offically reading two books simultaneously. One a paperback and one on my ereader (for when I'm eating something that requires both hands)

I got sent home at 12 o'clock because they have to format my laptop.

The engineer sitting next to me hits the period key harder than all the others, so I know when he finishes every sentence.

Stick a fork in me, I'm done. Only 5kms, but it's a start

Wonderful. Have a developed a massively inflamed & painful ligament in one foot. And I have a 5k walk tomorrow. Sigh.

Yesterday was a Public Holiday. I got today off as thanks for hitting a deadline. I thought it was Saturdayfor a while.

When you wake up at 4am on Fake Friday, you end up being ready for work at 5:40 even after having washed the dishes that soaked overnight

It wasn't really beach walk weather, so I cut it short. I'm not the most aerodynamic figure for walking in the wind.

There is something extraordinarily satisfying in killing a programme that has been hanging on you for 90mins! Even if you have to sit for another 30mins for it to re-open.

I'm up and dressed to go do my weekly shop & whining VERY loudly internally, because when I get home, I have to work ☹️

*more 🙄🙄🙄

I've reached the 'Soundtrack to the Last of the Mohicans' stage of tired. I'm 14hrs into my workday with a good few nore hours to go. Deadlines suck.

The 2 engineers I need to speak to are sitting in a glass boardroom talking to each other. I want to go sit outside it, eat grapes and just stare at them.

Wow. Seems like someone pissed in the Engineer's tea this morning.

Starting a good book on Sunday evening when you have to go to work on Monday is really stupid.

The engineer is back from 3 weeks in Dubai this morning. I have a LOOOONG list of things to talk to him about. Some of it is even work related.

It is now officially too dark for me to read at the bus stop in the mornings. Sigh. #WinterIsComing

I went for a stupid, windy walk on the beach this morning. Fir my stupid mental health.

Can I add that I am another lost squirrel? Who is having major withdrawl symptoms! 😢

What about Eddings?!?

Me: Oh look, Douwe Egberts is on special at Spar.
Also me: Checks cupboard. I have 8 bottles of coffee in there, one of which is the extra big Nescafe Gold. I do not need more coffee.

I want to go baby clothes shopping, but the 'baby' is barely a fetus and I don't know the sex yet

I do feel that there should be a 'False Eyelash Anonymous' as some ladies are SERIOUSLY overdoing them.

I really didn't need a muffin at 7:30 on Thursday morning but I wanted one. So I split it with the Engineer.

Popped in at my neighbour after work and according to her son, I'm looking a lot more human and less like a stressed, over-worked vampire.

I think I might be over-caffeinating this morning. For no particular reason, just Tuesday

Because my first thingie here was either going to be swearing about Engineers or alcohol
