We are up early. Godma and I are travelling into London and she is happy to get going.

I say goodbye to my friend as we change for our respective tube lines. It has been a trek for her but she’s been a trooper!

I am extra early in the office and I’m joined by an early bird colleague. We catch up about something or another and I get started with my day.

Lunchtime comes along and I get a soup and a roll.

I finish up for the day and collect the Bear on the way home. Dinner is Thai green curry which the man and Bear enjoy.

I stay up late watching Netflix!

It is mid-week. We have godma coming to stay today and everyone is excited.

I sped through work and the house looks clean and tidy for our guest. I collect the Bear after school, rush home and she gets changed into her ballet clothes. We go to collect godma from the tube station. So good to see her. It has been a year! She lugged over a loaf of brennan’s for me.

We drop the Bear and friend off to ballet and go back home. Lots to catch up on and we drink coffee and eat a tonne of rich tea biscuits! I order us fish and chips and I go to collect the Bear.

Dinner is great. Everyone enjoys the F&C, especially the chips! I serve trifle and fresh strawberries for dessert.

Godma is an early riser so she goes to bed, followed by the Bear. I tidy up and go to bed around 10pm but sleep badly from too much food!

It is another work day in London. Well everyday is a work day in London except I can’t when I don’t have childcare!

There are a few more colleagues in today. I’m in trousers but still wrap up as it is cold in the office.

Lunch is a sandwich and an almond croissant. I shouldn’t but it has been a while!

I get home early and start tidying up before collecting the Bear. Emails seem quiet today. I get the Bear home and I continue tidying up.

We have leftover spag bol for dinner. Nice and easy, everyone is happy!

I finish up late from tidying up and Duolingo needs to be done.

It is a brand new week and set to be cooler!

I head into town and it is nice to see some colleagues.

I brought lunch – leftover rendang but also get a fruit salad from Waitrose. I recall loving fruit salads when expecting the Bear a long time ago.

I finish up in the office and head back for the Bear. Once home I carry on working. The Bear is tired and has a nap on my bed. I wake her up after 40 minutes as she has her piano class tonight.

Dinner is spag bol which goes down well. We catch up on Glastonbury on the iplayer. I love Rick Astley and his set was great. I joked with hubby that we should get married again (to each other obviously) and have Rick sing at our wedding!

Bed was late but I slept soundly.

25/6/23

I have a lie in. It is a warm Sunday. I have a coffee and toast before my Pilates class.

After which I make a chicken rendang which goes down well for lunch.

We have some clearing out to do and the man had booked a trip to the recycling centre. We decide to make it a regular trip!

It is very hot so we all take it easy. The guys watch Glastonbury and I catch up on Netflix.

We snack on fruit and toast. I put away some leftover chicken for lunch at work.
