Day 685

Day 685...

My day started off by getting up relatively bright and early as we had an engineer visiting at some point today to service our boiler. It was a good job I was up and about as when I checked my phone I found a message from one of my team to say they were ill and couldn't make it in to work. This meant a quick change of clothes and a change of plan!

So my Monday was spent in work, for a full day. I was able to get ahead of my work load for the week with the usual emails, banking and data input as well as chatting with a potential new parent.

Back home and Simon had spent most of his day editing home movie video that he'd captured over the weekend. The boiler had been serviced and a couple of our radiators that weren't generating any heat had been fixed as well. 

As I arrived home I was greeted by a courier making an Amazon delivery who was looking a bit lost, as luck would have it the delivery was for us. Simon had ordered some LED lighting along with a housing unit for them, unfortunately the housing unit wasn't quite right so that is now being returned and an alternative ordered in its place.

The remainder of the afternoon was simply chance for Simon and I to catch-up, drink coffee and chill. I had my completed jigsaw to dismantle and then my next one to start...and of course it had to be a Disney one...

...should be a fun one to do. I have the edge pieces sorted and a start made on the outside, although I think I may have missed at least one piece already - whoops!

While I sorted jigsaws Simon was much more energetic and jumped on the exercise bike for some more zone two training! 

And that was our Monday, not quite what we had in mind but onwards and upwards and I will see you tomorrow.

Day 678

Day 678...

We had a change in proceedings for a Monday as I was needed in work this morning as cover for another member of staff; ordinarily Monday is my non-contracted day.

The morning in work was pretty standard and I had the chance to get caught up with some banking and admin as well as some updating to our learning journal system. As lunchtime rolled around I headed home to spend the remainder of the day with Simon.

Simon was busy updating some of his digital art files as well as capturing more of our home video...I think we are up to mid-1999 now. This will now all need watching back to make sure it's all been captured without any glitches and then Simon can move onto the next tape.

We then decided to take a drive out for a coffee, a change of scenery and a catch-up.

Back home and Simon set about some more video capture while I moved a few more jigsaw pieces around. The day was finished off with Simon jumping on the exercise bike while I finished off some work I'd started this morning. 

A short, Monday post! See you tomorrow.
