Just Waiting For Dinner To Cook!

[debris4spike]

As ever I seem to have loads of comments to catch up with - I will ... I promise (just may not be today)

First day back at work - first full day for many months ... so am really tired.  Thankfully I have tomorrow off.  As of next week I shall be doing an extra day a week (3 1/2), so not a lot compared with most, but having had a year where it was rare for me to work the 2 1/2, it will seem a lot.  The dept has given me a clinic to work in (plus a pay rise).  I am on a 6 month temporary contract, still employed via the Bank, so that is just great.

Saw Dad yesterday, and he is slowly settling.  Nick was coming down today, but I shall go in tomorrow and de-Christmas his room.  I need to do my own lounge as well.

Did any other Brits see War & Peace last night ... was it me tired, or was it a bit of a muddle?  Oh well, I shall try again next week and see if things fall into place better.

Well I can hear the buzzer so looks like I need to get to the kitchen.

Happy January 4th!!!

I'm not surprised that you feel tired after your first day back.

I think 3.5 days sounds like a really good working week to stop you getting worn out, as long as it earns you enough to get by. And a 6 month contract still through the bank sounds good, too, as it leaves you in the bank should the contract be renewed, doesn't it?

Yes, the Bank work is such that whether they renew this new contract, or not, I still have my nursing contract. So it means if I hate it, or get ill again then I can revert to my more relaxed hours of work.

Yay for more work but take it steady!

Have another go at War and Peace there's a lot of character to keep track of but it does make sense

Trying to take things easy, but like with War & Peace, I now have a bad cold so doubt either will be done well!
