Part 17 - Edz, living in interesting times

[edz]

And the first chance I've had to post an update on today.

All the normal bits today then work as predicted work has been a bit of a nightmare this week and continues to be so due to quarter end shinanigins that have to be done, hey ho no biggie.

Hadnt heard back from w on the weekend so pinged her just so I know what Im doing with s and can plan. Looks like Im picking him up Saturday morning, will take him swimming for an hour and we'll have the day together I'll try to keep him active as well, concerned he's slipping a little into a screen monster between schoolwork on screens and games. He's obviously staying over but not sure whats happening Easter Sunday or bank holiday monday yet. W seemed pre-occupied as s has a playdate this afternoon and I think she has been having "fun and games" with work again, MIL is not - I think - helping yet again.

I am not going to get involved in this.

Likely to be a late one on work today so tonight will mostly be dinner and maybe time for a movie or bath before bed (want to make my bathroom less sterile but its quite small and rented - any suggestions beyond candles / rugs anyone?)

So looks like I have a day to myself tomorrow, first I am going to enjoy the first lazy morning I've had in a month and then the weather is the deciding factor. I shall make a call on going somewhere to take some photos or something to be decided.

Will cook roast lamb sunday now i know s will be here, w knows shes welcome but im not putting out invites I'll guess she ends up at MILs as she wants to work out the logistics on the move etc. Again, not having a bite of that, w is a grown up up to her to deal with her mother.

Feel quite liberated this week for some reason, a little lonely but nothing new there. Looking for a local wine tasting event as I'd like to give that a bash - I'd mentioned to w its something we tried once and I'd love for us to do it again when we were discussing things being different, see no reason I cant do it myself for now. Nothing doing as yet but I'll have a look on meetup this evening see what I can find.

I've missed the swimming this week but Im glad I gave it a miss as Ive had a couple of shivery episodes and aches reminding me Im not fully well, cold pool and changing rooms and exhausting myself in a pool (alone I do 80 lengths or so) is not the best move, stuck with my daily exercises and walking this week.

So, what are you lot planning this weekend then?
