    Getting feedback that I’m actually really good at my job. Interviewed for a new position a few weeks and found out today that I got it. A few years ago I did an interview for another position and was so disappointed that I didn’t get it. It was one of a few things that went wrong in my life in a short amount of time and led to an identity crisis. So to get brilliant feedback and be told that I can’t really improve on my performance is huge.
    I was also studying and preparing for the interview in the midst of a massive family crisis when my stress levels were at all an time high.
    Bit emotional tonight!

    Getting out for a sea swim today with a friend who is under huge strain with her elderly parents' health. Chatting and seeing her smiling face in the waves made me happy! Therapy at its best! And we didn't get rained on!!

    Went to the gym this morning. Got there before they opened and the weights room was empty save for me and one of the regulars for over half an hour. It was so nice.

    Also, think I've got some of the hearing in my left ear back. Seems to get blocked easily so that's nice.

    Rearranged some of the smaller items in my home office, found that a lot of the items fitted into various plastic jars and containers that were headed for the bin!

    Tidy and saving the world from plastic pollution!

    Got an email from the uni detailing when results are due, how next year should pan out time and attendance wise and the constant sneaky increase in fees.

    As its a continuous assessment course, most people know what their scores are already, but I'm a bit shocked and th'ed that I was included in an email that said as you progress into your final year............................................................................

    As its never ever been a given I would progress in any form of academic/learning, seeing this gave me a warm glow.

    Went shopping for some last minute bits for hospital bag. Everyone was so nice, got chatting to the cashier in Tesco who also has "Irish twins" and another woman working in a different shop let me use her discount card to get a fiver off the baby clothes. I don't know if it's the bump or the teeny clothes but it seems to set off that "how long have you got now" conversation. Or maybe everyone is just happy with a little bit of normal.

    I've always supported lockdown and we've done nearly everything online, but I just really enjoyed actually being in a shop, talking to normal people again. I think I missed that interaction and didn't even realise. Came home worn out but feeling almost elated. Don't think I'll ever take normal human interaction for granted again.

    A few months ago I posted off an application and portfolio(I know posting wtf) for a youngster I help sometimes.


    Yesterday they got an advance offer on a place for the course they want. They are hysterical with happiness over it.

    Not happy happy, but renewing my lapsed faith, happy.

    Reading a thread on twitter ahead of the euro's final, where a comment had raised awareness of the increased incidences' of dv after games like this.

    Reading what seemed like hundreds of women offering space in their homes for ppl fleeing dv. Given how the game went I would image they were well needed.

    😢😥😥

    My fav hotel in London is the same price as my fav hotel in Athlone for the same midweek time period.


    I love when my pragmatism, calendar and love of travel blend together like that.
