So 50 days in lockdown and journaling about it. It's been interesting blogging again after not doing a daily blog since early 2000s. I managed to read the last bit of Where the Crawdads Sing and it was great, I'm not always satisfied by the endings, but It was really interesting and thought provoking.
I was quite slow starting this morning, I find Tuesdays way harder than Mondays at the moment and am quite often lacking in concentration. I had greek yoghurt, raspberries from the garden and some granola and 2 coffees for breakfast. I have had a TikTok song stuck in my head for days - I really shouldn't look at these things at night, I found the "original" song which is crude and rude and to the soundtrack of Doop...you can listen here, but it's rude and crude and I warned you...and it's still stuck in my head!
I managed to upload some CVs and had a few teams calls and ended up being really late for eating any lunch until 2pm and so I had a lettuce and cucumber salad and a jacket potato with butter and marmite.
I then had a call from my friend Hannah who needed some help, she had to go to a visit to a school with her youngest son, but her husband was away sorting funeral arrangements for his mum and wasn't allowed to take her oldest into the school, so I met them at 4pm and went for a walk whilst they had the meeting. I took a couple of hours back from work, but I logged on when I got home and managed to get 4 candidates uploaded for a job. I also had a quick chat to my Mum driving over to my friend and then felt bad as I didn't speak to my Dad on the way back that I'd said I would.
Alan had a migraine all day and so felt poorly and spent a lot of time napping on the sofa and in the bed with Maya who did a better job of looking after him than I did. I cooked dinner at 6.30pm and made a pork ragu Hello Fresh, but Alan wasn't hungry. I then ate dinner and signed on for my Zoom #runandtalk and caught up with Paul and Ben for an hour and then I logged off and check in on Alan and made him a cup of tea and went out for a run. I ran about 5.6K and wasn't fast and encountered the reason that one of the nearby roads is closed. I had a rocket lolly when I got in and ran and had a bath with a bathbomb from my birthday. I then had another orange juice lolly and ran a bath for Alan and he watched some aircrash investigation. I then shopped for some fabric for my neighbour to make some masks for Hannah's children with Harry Potter Fabric, but I accidentally ordered it for delivery to my office, I messaged them and hopefully they'll send it here instead!
I also ordered some interesting cat fabric and watched some more catfish. My Boots order arrived today and also the coffee I'd ordered from Bottega Millanese.
