Too. Much. Work.

The last fortnight has seen me doing too much work. At work, we have ended up in a bit of a pickle with too much work needing to be done in too short a time. The solution for the last couple of weeks has seen me working every evening.

That stops now for a little bit though as it’s unsustainable.

One of the biggest problem is that I’m so tired as a result of working every evening and it’s been coupled with Ben and Jon waking up too often at night with nightmares. Clearly it’s not just sleep you need to be relaxed, you need to have “downtime”. Of course, me being me, downtime involves computing but it’s completely different when I’m doing stuff for me!

Update: G would like me to point out that I’ve worked weekends too…

Dentist

For the first time since 1991, I went to the dentist for a check up :)

The dentist spent all of 5 minutes checking my teeth and commented that he could see why I hadn’t bothered for 15 years! Due to the way keeping registered with an NHS dentist works, I have to have another check up next year though.

A Quick Trip

As the weather looked good today, we popped out to Hanbury Hall for a picnic. On this trip to the hall, Jon and Ben were fascinated by the ducks on the lake, so we spent more time by the railings than we have before. The ducks must have thought that we had food for them as they got out of the water and waddled up to us. Unfortunately, we couldn’t oblige so they returned to the lake empty-beaked.
