So this is now 2 weeks of writing a journal everyday and it's strange it feels like a lot has happened, but that also there is an overriding sense of deja vu.
This morning Alan was awake early, I had forgotten that he had to head into the office and so he got up and left around 8am. I snoozed for a bit and put Headspace on for 10 minutes before getting up.
I had cornflakes for breakfast and a couple of coffees and then had a team meeting to start off the morning, then two client meetings and it's been pretty busy at work all day. I've made a dent in some of the emails as when I have too many it feels as though I'm not on top of things and might miss something so hopefully I can get them squared off and feel more in control.
One of the meetings started at 11.30am and went on until about 12.20pm (although I was late to join as I hadn't realised it wasn't on Teams and that I'd get the automatic alert to say that it was ready to start, it was on googlemeet so I had to sign in separately. I missed my Pilates class, but I did have a delivery which was addressed to Alan, but was my exciting customised Vans trainers with bees and flowers on. I had pizza from last night for lunch and then I was a bit hungry for snacks and I had a protein bar and a mini babybel.
I had one interview request which I didn't manage to confirm by the end of the day and the important roles that I'd picked up last week for a colleague we got lots of interviews on, including one for a friend's partner which is good news.
I watched the daily briefing and only 55 deaths which was positive, but there is always a weekend lag. Other news topics that were interesting were the reporting on the Coulson statue being pulled down yesterday. I was also reading about how a donut place in Leeds that a lot of people raved about has been exposed by an ex employee to be owned by racists/neo nazis, I'd not been there, but it made for uncomfortable reading.
I then got some more roles in to refer to colleagues just as I was about to sign off and then I went for a run with Alan. We ran about 5.2K and took it steady with a few walk breaks. My right knee was really sore when I first woke up, but this did get better and was fine for the run.
Alan made tea when we got back - Hello Fresh - Halluomi with couscous and salad and we had Haagen Daas salted caramel ice cream and some double cream for tea!
I went up for a quick shower, but ended up having a stupidly long bath - I don't get relaxed by baths, I get stuck, mess around on my phone and realise that the water is cold.
I cleaned up the kitchen and then came into the lounge and logged on to write this and to check some more work emails.
Alan went up for a bath and I turned on Catfish again to watch whilst dealing with emails.
