I woke up at 5.45am when the dogs barked at something. I felt really exhausted but wide awake at the same time. I couldn’t get back to sleep.

I am soooo tired. Maybe 6 days or work for the last 4 weeks is catching up with me?! Don’t get me wrong, I am loving the work and think it’s playing a huge part in my new calm front. I think this is the longest stretch without unnecessary anxiety. I don’t have time to overthink.

I’m enjoying thinking about what to wear to work and even putting makeup on. (Should say I even took all my makeup off last night before I went to bed!! I never used to do that!)

But I am tired.

I got up at 7 to walk the dogs before work. It was still pretty dark when we set out, but surprisingly mild.

I had a lovely walk. I didn’t want to do it but ended up really enjoying the peace and stillness… except for the 3 crazy pups running around in the field!

The shop was busy and the time flew by…. It really has just poured down all day. It’s hardly stopped.

So that’s me done until Monday and now we’re in the car heading up to Craig’s mums. We haven’t been here for far, far too long. I don’t know where the year has disappeared to!

It’s now 8.10pm and we’ve had the best time! We’ve eaten until we burst and talk the hind legs off a donkey. It’s been so great to catch up and have such a lovely spread. I’m obviously driving and I’m on my second bottle of Nozeco. I love the stuff and love that I don’t feel left out when I’m not drinking. My in-laws always have a feast selection of 0%.

Here’s Calaidh, Bhruic and Freya waiting outside while Cookie the Chihuahua has her dinner…. The doggy dinner queue!

Hope you’re all having a lovely Saturday night.

Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️
