Again another day with quite a lot of meetings, a kick off, a sector, another sector, a client and a candidate and then guides on zoom. Lots of time spent looking at my face.
I managed to squeeze in pilates at 12pm with West Point Practice which was challenging, but good for my core strength - important when we're all a lot less active at the moment. Qubit meowed really loudly at the start of the lesson.
Alan made a very tasty pork mince, Chinese five spice noodle dish for lunch and I ate it upstairs catching up on more work.
For some reason ever since perhaps the first breakfast we had in Barbados I've had random allergic reactions shortly after I eat or drink, not every time and not for weeks at a time sometimes, but today my face felt like it was on fire and my knees, arms, chest and face went bright red. It died down after about 20 minutes, but made me feel odd. There doesn't seem to be a consistent obvious cause, but worth tracking I suppose?
I finished work at 6.30pm and dashed downstairs to cook Hello Fresh for tea - duck with plum sauce and mashed potato. I finished just in time to be able to dial into the guide meeting. I think Alan was irritated by me rushing around to get it finished, I was irritated that I had to cook before guides and that it was cold by the time I got to eat.
Guides we did a UMA on privaledge using examples of animals and whether they always had food, a safe place to sleep etc, they seemed to enjoy it and have also discovered the chat function on zoom which was interesting! We used the whiteboard function which was new and seemed to work quite well.
After Guides I ate my food and then messed around on social media before getting changed and going for a run at 9.20pm. I also had a call from Ally my neighbour who wanted to borrow some red wine vinegar, I managed to find 1 single sachet and posted it through her door although I think she needed 4 tablespoons.
It was wet and starting to get dark so I did a hills session running up and down the slope that leads up to the gatehouse as it started to get darker and darker. I really do appreciate this time of year for the extra long nights to give me time to do more activities outside. I ran just over 6K and was able to tick off enough "activity" for 8 vitality points (I hope!) I listened to more of "I'm not your baby mother" by Candice Brathwaite whilst I ran and made the monotony less frustrating.
I came back in and washed my hands before cleaning up the kitchen surfaces and was delighted to see that Alan had emptied and refilled the dishwasher. I put a little bleach and water in the half sink with the clothes and covered with a chopping board to soak overnight.
I'm now running and bath and hopefully will help me get a good night of sleep.
