For those of us who work a bank holiday…. It always feels a bit unfair that everyone else seems to be asleep when you leave for work… that said, the traffic is amazing. I have a cheek as my commute is nothing these days but there were less cars on my roads!
Poor Craigie is feeling really rough. He fell asleep on the couch last night, woke to eat some dinner and fell straight asleep again. I could barely wake up when I went up to bed. He was dripping in sweat.
I woke at 4.30 and went down to check on me…. Still fast asleep…. When I went in again at 6.15 he was awake. He was literally zonked all night.
He’s slept most of the day… which is just as well really, as we had no electricity for most of the day. Power cuts, low water pressure and no mobile phone signal…. It’s been some day for him, he’d be as well sleeping. Strange goings on in our village.
My ego feels really hard done to having to work a bank holiday…. It feels so unfair, why is everyone else off, why do I have to work, why…. And on and on…. But you know what, it can shut right up as we’ve had a great day at work. We got loads done, delivered a good few vans and it was so worthwhile being open.
Sometimes our minds just want to moan….. Want us to feel hard done to and as a result we feel bad for the day.
When this happens, and you recognise is for what it is, you are taking back control of your thoughts. The ego doesn’t like that and tries to win…. And I often still let it.
But not today.
I had a lovely walk with Claire after work. It was quite warm. We took Calaidh and Bhruic.
The sky is really dark against the green of the fresh growth.
It’s really dramatic.
We are lucky we don’t get wet.
The rain doesn’t come for a good hour and half afterwards.
The wild garlic is everywhere!
Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️
