On the whole, kinda shit. I did go to my first pride yesterday, though, so that was fun.
I'm pretty broken, not sure I can do two consecutive day fests with a club night between them these days... But I wouldn't give it up for anything. Enjoying moments with a crowd all vibing to a song, experience, or just in the midst of the moment. It's cheesy but it's why I'll never stop loving live music. Right now, think I need a late afternoon nap to prep for next week!
It's hot and muggy. I can't sleep. Voluntary redundancies at work, which will lead to compulsory redundancies. Car MOT stress. Wifes family are permanently in my house. I am trying to cut down drinking alcohol (and I am not sure why???!!)
The news is, well, the news. And my kids asked if there is going to be a war.
Lots on. Good to keep busy.
Wifes family are permanently in my house
One of my colleagues in the office is Ukranian (though he came to the UK long before the war). Because of the war, he now has to live with his parents in his house :P
A war between you and your wife's family or...
Sucks about the redundancies though, I know a few people going through the same thing.
Sounds like you've got a lot going on, fingers crossed your car is ok and the in laws move out!
yeah alright cheers mate, how about you?
It's been fine, the week has been pretty uneventful really. It was my dad's birthday yesterday so we went out for a meal which was also a kind of joint father's day do, and then it's been father's day today which has just been a normal day!
Excellent mate. I went out as well, there's a place in town that has those autonomous wheeled bot things that guide you to your table, and bring your food to you and stuff. My boy wanted to see them for ages so off we went.
Only downer this week is my Pokémon Blue save died when it crashed while saving. Ten hours down the drain, that was my project for this summer.
Did you get sorted for new running hooves after?
Yeah, managed to work with the weather for once... pressure washing the green slime off the patio when it was raining, starting to paint the shed when it was dry... some small(ish) jobs and the garden just looks fresh again.
Found some old 8mm film... might take that to the photo shop in town to both help him keep the shop open and get the unknown films onto
VHSDVDUSBSomehow work has felt like a heavy slog over the past few weeks. It’s not just me as several people at work have said the same.
Our dogs on the other hand provide a welcome balance. Saturday was grooming day, which do ourselves. It took us four hours for the two dogs to give them haircut and another hour today to tidy up the bits we obviously missed.
it was.... stressful
my wife is buying a shared ownership house, and I read the paper work first then we read it together so I have a head start on any questions we are on the final set of paper work, stuff needs signing and sending back to the solicitor for it all to go ahead. and today at 5pm I noticed a massive typo, the yearly amount for service charges etc was listed on the contract as a monthly payment!
I don't do hot weather, there hasn't been a year in the last decade I didn't get heat stoke at least once, so this weather is killing me :(
but otherwise :) all is good
