Socialising

Have had two very social days. 

Yesterday the extra walk was with Kirsty and Jake. So nice to see them both. Did talk a lot about work but that was expected. Jake asked for my input on reception team training at The Ned. I'm really excited. One that I could see the gym, workout and help out! Also, potentially a step towards lunch at the top of The Ned. Rooftop cocktails! Shame Jake has a girlfriend. 

Today - Harry and Meghan! Shame Seb couldn't join but he did have his TRX class (which I am really happy about, at what rate it is developing!). Anyway, it was a beautiful weather, even hot I would say. Especially comparing to yesterday, where I feel like I froze, the wind and rain.. Brrrrr..  An Harry and Meghan, the cutest couple ever! Bought me a coffee and a little pastry in their local shop, the Putney neighbourhood is very lovely! 

Makes me think a little, how easy life would be if we all knew who is our The One, one person in the world that we are perfect for. Or when you know, you know. There is no back and forth, there is no doubt.

I think

I'm not gonna try to write every day. because there is nothing much to write everyday.
I should definitely get to the point of sitting down and trying to write a line, but if there is nothing there. 
Well, there is nothing there.

Right?

Highlight of today? Gonna repeat myself, but the early morning walk with Jolanta where we discussed the second chapter of the Rich Dad, Poor Dad book. I do feel like I am managing myself a lot better now, as in I accept the different opinion, even though I don't agree with it. Definitely feel myself growing.

Sleep is so important

Monday was very socially active for me. Regular early morning walk with Jolanta, later morning walk with Laura and cavapoo Moka.. And an afternoon catch up with Luke. 

But this morning was hard, I realised how much the beer that I had in afternoon affected the quality of the sleep I had. Everything I read (Matthew Walker - Why we sleep) was true. Even though I slept for more than 8 hours, the quality of the sleep was at a lower spectrum of average (FitBit calls it fair, but I don't value it so highly). 

Today I have been a bit lazy and been restoring my energy levels. An extra shower to feel refreshed and I am sorted. 


No regrets.

Sunday Funday

Right, first of all, let me not excuse myself. 

Because, yes, I missed out on a day again. But no apologies or excuses.

Yesterday was a bit of a weird day, especially the morning - market shopping. I didn't go to the regular veggie stall and ended up paying £2.80 for three onions! And without clear thought bought 12 eggs for £5.30 instead of 30 eggs for £5. Just because, I didn't think it through, stepping out and getting cash would have been so easy. And then the headache. But I blame it on the weather changes.

New Moon. Pirmā mēness diena. Planning time was yesterday and I did some planning and a schedule, I do like lists and schedules. So. Yes, 28 days, which is perfect as it is exactly 4 weeks until I have to go back to work! Discipline is needed to make sure I keep myself accountable of all the points in the day.

Today is went well.
Workout and shower.
Laundry and clean house (not a deep cleaning but an overall fresher feeling).
New bedding. 
A movie.
Pictionary with brother and mom. Can't wait!

little uneventful talk with Jed, Kirsty and Karo. just confirmed the opening times and time slots for April.. need more guidance and confirmations on 'club school' as well as our health & safety guidelines..

anyway, on to a second chapter in FOH course..

Thursday, March 11

I had an Honest burger today and it was delicious! It was well 'deserved' after the long walk to Camden Town. So nice to see the girls, Kat and Christina from gym team. And we got really lucky with weather, because it was supposed to rain, but.. it didn't :)

And now we are having Wine Club again. It's Thursday.
I would definitely like to learn more about wines. 
But if I need to choose wine or spirits, I think most likely I would choose spirits.

P.s. Missed yesterday's blog entry. How? 😳

Tuesday, March 9

not sure...

actually i know exactly why i feel under the weather today. i underestimated the weather, and was wearing a leather jacket for a walk and now feel like i might be catching something. have had a thera-flu, so hoping that tomorrow morning will wake up fresh as a berry.

relatively lazy day, haven't done much work, just socialising and walking 25km.

got confirmation that we would be going back to 100% pay and 5 day weeks in May. which hopefully is a good thing. just need to get through April and opening first. also, need to check when and how to sign up for the vaccine. at the moment it is given to people who are 55 and over.

should get extra hour of sleep tonight.

Talk the talk, walk the walk /

New year, new me has never really worked for me. Or maybe it has.  At least this year, me and Ruta tackled the monthly challenges to get in...
