I haven't even left the house today! I got up with a huge stress headache, made some breakfast and signed on for work and then decided to have some ibuprofen with all my vitamins. I had apple, granola and yoghurt for breakfast and 2 coffees.
I had a busy morning of doing interviews and a bit more admin and realised it was past 2pm before thinking about lunch so then Alan made some waffles and a couple of fried eggs. I cracked on with a load more work and am not close to being caught up and also had some internal patch politics to discuss. I had a meeting with a client about an issue that I had to sort out which wasn't the best end to the day, but then I had an offer for another candidate so it sort of balanced itself out.
I finally finished work around 7pm and cooked dinner - a hello fresh pasta and butternut squash and serrano ham recipe and then I logged onto the chalk the sun reading group and shared a piece of writing that I'd done at the "How to write that novel" workshop, generally they weren't grabbed by the first page I'd written in the exercise, but they did like the blurb. They shared some other pieces which was really nice to listen to and also mentioned that they'll be meeting again on the first Saturday for an exercise.
I then spent ages talking to Alan about my story and we came up with a few ideas of how to shape everything and a few devices. I'm trying to work out the characters as it's hard to not write about yourself.
I then ate some cheese and chutney whilst Alan had a bath.
