So, today is Thursday.
It began by me meeting my mate Rob for early coffee/hot chocolate/raison toast. We met at work two or so years ago and became friends. We've since moved on from the same employer but have caught up twice now. I really enjoy catching up with him. He's someone who will go far and be successful. It'd be nice to meet someone of his calibre in my age group.
After a stressful morning (that would be ME stressing) I managed to get a bit of work done today. I'm building a good rapport with my boss ('Can I ask a question'...... 'I have another question'.....) It's lovely to have someone ask ME questions even though when I get them I think 'How the hell do I know?'. It was also lovely having my junior lawyer call me at the end of the day to 'check in' and say thank you to me for my help this AM.
Rose. Bless her, I love her so much.
My book. Oh my goodness I was nearly in tears on the train. I cannot imagine what it takes to climb a mountain, the sheer endurance, the physical strength and the mental toughness. Let alone an ice covered mountain such as Everest. This is my third book reading a real life story
where the theme is ice. The first Robert Falcon Scott and his expedition to Antarctica (he died, I cried), the second an epidemic in a remote Alaskan town where sled dogs were used to carry the vaccine to the town, and now, a fatal disaster on Everest.
Oh, and getting on the wrong train home.
