What excitement! This was the week when we were able to start meeting people and doing non-essential shopping again. I have to say I was not super thrilled about the non-essential shopping thing, but meeting people, yay! This week we had two people from outside our household come visit. One was an outside visit in… Continue reading Week 25.2020, the week when things opened again

24.2020
Work mood: I had this come up in my facebook memories from a year ago this week. I remember what was going through my mind when I posted it. I didn't get a job I'd applied for, and was told as part of the feedback that they would welcome my application for other jobs, or… Continue reading 24.2020
This week 23.2020
It was almost a year ago I made the decision that something had to change. I felt stuck in my job, in my life, in general. I needed to shake myself out of this rut and so set myself a target - a long term target to change some things in my life. Twenty-four months… Continue reading This week 23.2020
Week 22.2020 – challenge week
I'm calling it challenge week because it contained challenges for me and also because I am challenging myself. What does that all mean? Read on and find out. This week's yoga mood - negative. Much as I love James' classes, I didn't log in for the Monday morning class, it was a public holiday after… Continue reading Week 22.2020 – challenge week
Week 21.2020
I know we are still in lockdown but this week I had the feeling that I can see the end of the tunnel. Or at least an oncoming train. But I feel this week that maybe there's a chance that this physical lockdown will lift a little, and with it the mental lockdown that I've… Continue reading Week 21.2020
Week 20.2020
This week's health report: I've had ongoing pains in my arms during the night. It feels like pins and needles but it's also hot and painful, enough to wake me up and stop me getting back to sleep. It seems to be getting worse and is happening during the day now. I'm at the point… Continue reading Week 20.2020
That was a good week (19.2020)
Yes, it was a pretty good week. I guess it helps that I had a three-day working week and a four-day weekend. (*Sigh* If only every week could be like that.) This week's yoga mood: good, but I only managed to 'get to' two classes. I went back to the Wednesday morning class I walked… Continue reading That was a good week (19.2020)
An up and down week (18.2020)
A good but panicked start The week started well, I was feeling quite positive and productive. There was a big meeting with outside people on Monday, I was all ready to present, even put on a good top in case the video was working. Of course at two minutes to 10:00 (when the meeting was… Continue reading An up and down week (18.2020)
tHe wEEk tHAt wAs (16.2020)
Last week was the 5th week of working from home. The cheerful confirmations from senior management that we as an institution have an important part to play in responding to and eventually helping recovery from this crisis don’t seem to be filtering down to my team. This was the first week that several people admitted… Continue reading tHe wEEk tHAt wAs (16.2020)
This week (15/2020)
This week I came to a breakthrough with yoga. Thursday morning I sat down on my mat and our teacher said "Just be the pose. Don't 'do' the pose. Just be." This must have been what I needed to hear because for once I didn't feel stupid for wobbling, or for feeling weak, or for… Continue reading This week (15/2020)
