Week 3 of new job and different work patterns to adjust to. Will be working every evening, right through my normal dinner time, so having to bake / prep and eat earlier. Very little DH time too, but lots of time to myself in the day - strange! The one evening we could have together, he has got to work late so i guess we will just catch up at the weekend. Beyond that, meeting up with a good friend at the end of the week and lunch out, charity shopping and scrabble in store.

Objecting to the double yellow lines that they want to put everywhere on our estate so that it will be difficult to get things delivered. We have a car park but they have gone berserk with double yellows everywhere around people are coming on to our estate to park so we need the one remaining bit of road to be left.
When I finish the painting, I'm going to order a new sofa and then rest.
