The best laid plans, and all that

white_hartI made it 292 days into my year of daily posts, but the last few days have been utterly draining and I simply couldn't manage to come up with anything to say; I don't particularly want to talk about what's going on at work (and probably shouldn't even if I did), but it's blanked pretty much everything else out.
(My Facebook memories today told me that two years ago I got my regraded contract. Given what the last two years have brought, I think I've earned every penny of that higher salary, and then some*.)
Still, a 292 day streak isn't bad.
Anyway, I have nothing cheerful to say, so if you feel like telling me something that's making you cheerful, please do!
*I also sometimes think that maybe the higher grade job is just too much for me, but it's the same job, really, and none of the things that have made the last couple of years so difficult would have been avoided by me not being regraded.

But if you're okay about sending me a private message with your postal address, I'll walk in Tues/Wed and order some oranges for you. Happy to do this, and yes it's easy. We've been sending little care-packages of dark chocolate to the lovely Father-in-Law throughout lockdown.
