Done a shoddy job of bleaching my roots. Going to slap on loads of blue dye when it's dry to try and cover up the mess 😂

1. I have bathed, squeaky squeaky clean now
2. Household boring chores done, so I'm feeling a bit virtuous
3. Spent far too much money on growing child's new school trainers, but she's happy!

Never used 'turn it in' before, being an old luddite. Is 13% a bad score? Some of it just seems to be referencing. This is so new to me!

Seeing the Last Dinner Party on Thursday night- husband isn't really interested. Is it wrong to take the 13-year-old to her first gig on a school night? Or bit too late?

Blasting out some Wolf Alice to cheer myself up. #3GoodThings
1. Interesting interprofessional education session this morning- may have worked out why I find my PT a little bit scary.
2. Girls have returned home all bouncy and happy
3. Only a short unintentional nap today.

Did a tiny bit of work this morning, then had an unexpected two-hour nap with the dog on the sofa. Levothyroxine has not kicked in yet, it seems. Unproductive day, I need to wash up and feed the little people. Husband is out this evening. Feeling a bit lonely already. Think I'm thrown off by the nap

Gave the dog some of the leftover cheese sauce over his kibble. He's now low-level growling/rumbling at me for more. He wasn't satisfied until I showed him the remaining bowl just had salad in.

Littlest had a friend over who's veggie. So I cooked a macaroni cheese from scratch rather than shove a pizza in. She told me how good her Nanna's cheese sauce was, then moved straight onto the pudding. Should have just done the pizza!

Random shuffle on music- 'Radiohead - Let down' has come on, and I'm transported to my teenage self. I haven't listened to this in years.

Eldest has gone to scouts camp for the weekend. Feeling a bit discombobulated after a nap. And it's quieter than normal. And dark out. Not sure I'm liking this evening so far.

Had second Hep B vaccination today, which hurt more than it should have. Also found out my placement area for January, excited, but a bit nervous! Need to go through my 'eclectic' clothes to see which ones can be marked as smart/casual!
