After a very enjoyable week off, I am now back in the workplace, slaving away, tired and having a thoroughly miserable time. OK, maybe the “miserable” part was a tad too far, but I would certainly rather be at home than in the office, and having to leave the flat at 7.40 this morning was a much unwelcome shock to the system!
I think the return to work today has hit me more than in the past. As well as the 9 days out, I have enjoyed extended weekends thanks to the Christmas break, and the few days I did have to work over the festive period, there was very little to do.
It’s now January – dark, grey and wet. Roll on the summer, when we can go on our summer holidays for two weeks and moan about the extreme heat and sleepless nights for the other three months.

I am aware that sharing my workspace with a stuffed, life size rabbit could be considered...

This week is my last working five days
Monday to Friday is over for me.
From next week, I will no longer be working Tuesdays.
Dropping a day is not a decision that I took lightly. It will obviously have financial implications for me, plus now I have signed that change of conditions form, there is no going...
- I’ve Had Better Days: Part 2
The clocks have now gone back, I had a good night's sleep and have now settled down to blog the second installment of my Friday Frights, while Claire watches Liverpool play Spurs.
Where did we finish off last night? Oh yes, I had cleaned Neil Warnock and nursed him back to full, loud health. No idea...
