Taking the Day as it Comes

Day 28 - 8:14am, 28th January 2019

I think the iPhone needs to take the credit for this photo. It still wants to fix the lighting, but for being taken when I didn't even have time to stop and point the camera at anything in particular, it is a miracle it is not as blurry as I was blurry-eyed at the time. 

For someone with a headache who had intended to go to bed early, bed was a shameful one am affair last night. And I am not good on lack of sleep, I admit that freely. It has its uses at times. When you are struggling to get the words out and there is a deadline looming, it can help that your brain has left the building and you let whatever it is you are writing write itself. But, generally speaking, I crumple after one night. Any productivity gains are fleeting, at best, and living with the she-devil the next day is not nice for anyone, including me.

 Almost ten hours on from the walk-by photo shoot, however, today has panned out okay. Bus pass replaced for free before work, including photo that is marginally better than the last, meaning I made yoga at lunchtime. The piece of work I was working on finished and inroads made elsewhere. Little Miss seems to have forgotten about her homework, which is good, because the thought of creating a model eco-house of the future is a stretch further than I feel like going tonight. 

Of course, it could mean that I write the addresses on the remaining kids' thank you cards from Christmas ready to post tomorrow, plan the story massage sessions for the nursery and nurture groups tomorrow, or even do any of the other things that remain unchecked on my to do list. Or maybe I could just make myself a cup of coffee and watch old episodes of The Simpsons instead.
