Day 1317 slightly less ratty 😤🥰

I slept like a log last night…. All that decaf coffee and good chat must have done me the power of good!

I felt much better when I woke up this morning. Like a weight had been lifted.

It was a lovely drive to work… dry for the first time in days… I barely had the wipers on.

The rain started pretty soon after I got into the office.

So I was a lot better today but still shoot into orbit when something (that is my job…) is added to my list.

On the plus side I did come up with a couple of processes to try to limit the ad hoc requests. My memory isn’t what it used to be, I am forgetting things so it needs to be written down and tracked somehow. maybe then I can put some control into the ad-hoc….

I took a photo of Gran’s Christmas cactus this morning…. It’s in full bloom a good few weeks early. 😂

It’s really pretty. Mum and dad say their cutting is pink but mine is very pale pink.

I also thought it would make you smile to see the dogs in their room last night. Not sure if I said but Khaleesi has been sleeping in with the three pup-sketeers now for well over a week now.

For some reason I feel the need to wrap her up….. I scoff at my mother in law for molly-coddling her Chihuahua…. And here I am….

She’s from Spain, she needs to be warm!!

Freya took a leaf to bed with her last night. Anyone who knows Freya will know that she always has to pick something up in her mouth before she does anything exciting 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

Calaidh seems to be under her blanket rather than on it…

And Bhru just lies on a big pillow as she prefers to stretch out.

She looks at me with a withering look…. More photos?!?!

So yeah… a bit better day today. Need to work on it again tomorrow. At least I had less people to apologise to today so something was better.

This. Is. Me. Full. Stop.

I couldn’t have written that better myself. I can’t focus with any noise in the background, whatsoever. I hate any clothes being too tight, jaggy or itchy, I detest strong perfume or any loud, noisy-for-noisy-sake “music”… I can’t even call it music. I don’t work well under pressure as my mind panics and that’s when I snap. I need to be prepared as anything dropped in my lap becomes like s ticking time bomb that detonates within seconds!

And relax….. off to crochet tonight where I may even crochet the odd granny square!

I feel a deep sense of gratitude for being me.

That almost brought a tear.

I’m complex.

I’m hard work at times.

I just want to be calm.

Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️
