Friends, the long weekend continued to be full of care work all the way through, but as Adam remarked, if I had not been on holiday, the care work would still have been there -- and I would have also had the paid work to manage.

So at least I had free time to manage it?

There are some good things, though! I made soup and curry, and froze them both in some cake bar moulds (cheap versions of those popular 'Souper cubes' that are everywhere at the moment). This means I have nearly two dozen meals ready to defrost and eat as needed, huzzah!

I drove over to Denmark (the town not the country) and hung out with a friend for a couple of hours at her place. So good to catch up, we haven't seen each other for a couple of years. She's in the final gasps of her PhD so I was keen to hear her progress (and commiserate and cheer where appropriate).

Dad is doing better today and hopefully we'll hear back from his specialist about how we can modify his medication to prevent a repeat of the last few days.

And Kid1's friend is staying with us for a few days, a lovely guy, and we've had some good kitchen chats about food, religion, politics and childhoods. It's awesome 🥰

Jazz dude, jazz dooding at 2:30am ... getting stuff put together to rehearse for a concert.

Some know, most don't... it ain't a job, it's a life.

Me finally cut the cord a month and a half ago after 10+ years at Domino’s. No nostalgia. No guilt. Just silence where chaos used to scream. Feels like something upstairs yanked me out before I turned into burnt crust and regret. I don’t miss it. Not even a little. #work #freedom #change #life #escape
