Today: Bit of mid morning Prayer Meeting teching. Lunch out with L & J.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.

Rough start to the week due to not ordering medication in time, combined with a mistake at the practice.

Morning All!
It's Tuesday
Yesterday: Odd day. Wobbly start when I discovered I'd faioled to bring any Sertaline with me (had packed a second strip of the similar looking Tamulosin by mistake) Only need to do two days without. Thai restaurant closed at lunch so L & I had a very nice Persian meal while J went to McDs and then go himself back from Richmond to Nan's in Kingston all by himself! We're very proud :-) Bit flaky physically in the afternoon, from car to restaurant took something out of me physically as dealing with change of plan did mentally.
Today: Quiet day. Nothing planned till L & I go for dinner with Louise tonight.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

Actually, did we not see Ralph in possession of a stolen helicopter only a few days ago? They've probably come to reclaim it.

Decision made! Have accepted the offer from my current employer and now have to turn down the other.
First time I've ever negotiated something at an employer rather than just moving on. Always used to have an idealist "if they could afford to pay you that before but didn't, they're not worth working for" approach but am now going with the more pragmatic "if I can avoid the faff of changing employer for the same money, which I will start getting sooner, then why not?".
First months payrise will be swallowed by our latest problem though, washing machine looks like it needs replacing after developing a mouldy smell last week that none of our treatments so far has cured...

Dreadful week at work and physically recovering from passing my 2nd Dan Black Belt in Taekwondo over the weekend.

How'd ya get on, champ? As a big fan of the original Lynch, I am intrigued by this new film. I liked it, but it ended either half an hour too late for a natural pacing ending or half an hour too early for a natural plot ending. By about two hours in, I too, like Ralph, would rather have been boiling my head in muscles.
