About to make a 6h drive to the lake district for the week with a friend, should be fun! I have my rain coat lol.

Morning everyone. Reddit refugee here and what better way to make my first post of Lemmy than here!

I'm using wefwef and it kind of feels like a home from home already.

Looking forward to helping this place a great community

I'm of that age where it seems a lot of people I know are dying. So I made a decision last week to try and improve my quality of life and applied to reduce my working hours. Application approved and actioned within two days so today... I had the first of my non-working days.

Still need to figure out how best to use this time. Had a nice walk today, that's a fair start. Rest of the week will be work as normal.

Just peeked a look at the forecast myself: rain for two weeks.

I'm in the general area of Manchester, so I shouldn't be surprised, but it's July for cryin' out loud. Where'd my summer go.

Back to work after 3 months off with a variety of health problems but most notably a slipped disc that is crushing my spinal cord. Surgery in 3 weeks but if I don't go back today I get a pay cut so back I go! Could be worse, working from home at least

Back to work after having a week off. Kind of dreading it as my calendar is already packed

New client day! So I'm off to their office to pick up a laptop, password, ID, time sheets, etc.

Commuting is, thankfully, a one-time thing.

Normal week for me. Nothing special, got some work experience kids in this afternoon so will see how that goes.

Luckily it's quite sunny here so can keep justifying shorts to the office!

I think I’m going to need a double espresso or two

I'm currently packing for a trip to Montreal tomorrow.

Went to a stag on Saturday that involved go-karting my arms are made of rocks today

Happy Monday folks!

Got up today and could not be arsed so stuck in 3 days holiday. I just can’t stop thinking about the new Dungeon Crawler Carl book that’s getting delivered today. Can’t fucking wait!

This "morning chat" post went up 5 hours ago. I finally dragged myself out of bed half an hour ago. This says it all about how my week has started off.

On the bright side, accidentally getting eleven hours straight sleep has done wonders for my energy levels. Feeling ready to punch the rest of the day right in the face!

I appreciate the lemmings

Not as much rain as I'd hoped here. Had quite a gentle return to work so far and managed to do a lot of laundry!

Finally got some Wimbledon tickets after years of trying. So looks like rain on Wednesday for our day, and we have an outside court not a fancy roofed one. Oh well, will see how much of a refund we get if it rains too much to stop play. Should still be a good day out though regardless.

Dropped the car off for an oil change (when did they get so expensive?) and getting a nice 15 minute walk from the garage to work. A bit chilly though, which was unexpected.

My wrist continues to be painful after a week so going to try to get to the minor injuries unit tonight.

Nerding out and testing my own private Lemmy instance. First impressions: quite a lot of effort, no huge benefits as yet.

Off to a festival this week so it's the one time I'd rather it not bloody rain!

Today I'm spagbolling while listen to Iron Maiden.
Not much federating with Lemmy on kbin, I can only see 4 comments on this thread. The mysteries of the Fediverse!
