another day, another sunset

I’ve become fascinated with skies since I started trying to draw and paint. Not that I’ve tried very hard to reproduce them, but it gives something to muse about as I drive home in an evening, pondering on the colours in a sunset and wondering whether I’ve the pastels to try. That’s while avoiding the complete idiots on the M1 you understand, who seem to get more suicidal as the traffic gets less.

It’s been a long day today, as my boss was preparing a handover - she’s off for the next 2 1/2 weeks. This meant that I was there from just after 8 this morning til 7.30 tonight - be the last time I do that for a while though, as it’s Tim’s first day tomorrow, so the childcare would be a bit more difficult to arrange. This will not be a bad thing - I will have to cram my work into my hours rather than sprawling my hours to fit my work, and my life will benefit from this balance, although I may fray a few nerve ends while I’m trying to figure it out.

Big appears to have cooked again today, though you’d have to ask Tim for further details. She also answered the phone and held a conversation with me in a most adult manner - most pleasant. Small, by contrast has only had one drink while I’ve been out. Tim was quite surprised to hear this, and may be considering making notes or taking pictures in future :grin:

So to another era tomorrow - but first, I need to have some tea and some sleep.

    all the best for tomorrow, both of you.

    I remember the first time I spoke to my girls on the phone and couldn’t tell who it was, they sound so grown up and different on the phone somehow don’t they.

    Hope it’s going well today for you both :)
    I speak to both of mine on the phone on the days I work all day and really struggle to work out which one is which and they often answer my phone when Ady rings.
