Wasting time

It was back to the normal routine today, and an early wake-up! Sophie went to the gym, and I had a coffee before getting ready for work. Sara is off for three days, and I walked in to about 130 emails. I also had two weeks' worth of films to be put onto the system and hadn't realised that we only had one more week available for people to book! 

I tried as hard as I could, but I made virtually no inroads into the emails at all. I had to attend a meeting at another of our leisure centres today from 1pm until 3pm, something I could have well done without! It was a business update meeting, and we had to play two silly games, which I was definitely not in the mood for! It felt like a complete waste of time!

When I got back to the office at 3pm, poor Kathy was on a long call, so I dived in and answered the phone. Shirley had been helping but had gone home, so the last hour was busy. I couldn't wait for 4pm!

Yesterday, we had decided to postpone dinner until tonight, something that I was now heartily regretting! We popped the chicken casserole in the oven, I prepared carrots, parsnips and a courgette for roasting, and made dumplings. Keith and I played cards, and we ate later than we had intended. The courgettes had leaked a lot of water, making the carrots and parsnips a bit limp, so that didn't go down well! Oh well!
