How has your week been?

Shifted a ton of glass from an old greenhouse out into the car and off to the skip. Cut a big branch off a tree we plan to hinge-cut later. Then it started raining and we packed it in. I'm tired, but happy - it was a good day

Cousin's wedding on Monday, considering he is 69, never been married and is a drunken shambles of a man (not a bad bone in his body), it went like clockwork, all credit for that goes to his new wife (who is an old hand at this marriage lark). I think the sit down meal had more courses than I've had in my life - starter, sorbet pallet cleanser, main meal (a massive lamb shank), dessert (a selection of three mini desserts), enough cheese to guarantee we all get gout (there was so much left over, everyone was getting silver foil from the kitchen - we left with more than a wheel of Brie and close to a wheel of Stilton), followed by coffee and tea with chocolate truffles. A waiter was so impressed by my tie that he didn't focus on what he was doing and poured tea on a cousin's husband. I got to meet a lot of new additions to the family and have a tonne of homework to do updating the family tree over the next few weeks. Only downside is my brother didn't go - he is my cousin's godson, so I felt he should go but, as he has a wife and two kids, I was easier to fit in (how to make everyone feel special). I did message him on Monday, but there has been radio silence and I know not to prod the bear.

Other than that fairly standard:

• Curry Night Wednesday - delicious vegetarian curry house in town. We ate too much, again.
• Movie Night Thursday - Death of a Unicorn, decent enough but far too much was given away in the trailer.
• Pub Friday and Saturday - nothing worth reporting.
• Today - getting chores done, sorting various things out and batch cooking.

I’ve been working a new roofed decking where BBQ and Ooni pizza oven will go. I bought the pizza oven as a bit of an impulse thing and didn’t really think where it will go, so now I have a building project to deal with.

Yesterday the weather was great so I just kept going for far too long for my age. It turns out roofing in April sunshine is exhausting and seemingly requires muscles I don’t appear to be using that often. On the bright side I did not burn myself as I slapped plenty of SPF 50 on.

I also did a good few walks with our dogs and explored new forrest paths we haven’t been to before. We knew of them but never got round going there.

I’d call this a very good week.

Today has been fairly relaxed! I've only just found this place and made my account so that's pretty cool

It's been tough. I nearly failed to pay rent, and had to borrow money from a friend to afford it. My finances have been an absolute bloodbath for nearly a decade, and I'm finally gearing up to go sober and really confront how much debt I have. It's going to be a tough year. But, on the whole, the week could have been worse! And, thankfully, a calm but enjoyable Sunday.

Really questioning my ability to read, thought the title of the post was "How was your week ban"

Enduring work after a week away. luckily it's a short week

Nothing special really.

Didn't have anything planned for over the weekend and went to check out a community meeting. Met a few new people and they had some very very good free chocolate orange cake. Fitted in a lot of gaming time as well.

Work is really slow as the boss and a good chunk of the rest of my team are on holiday with the kids, and my main job is sat in QA's queue as 1/2 of them are on holiday as well. I'm bored and should really be taking advantage and doing a course but I can't be arsed and am feeling very lazy.

Might walk down to the chip shop for tea later on if it stops raining, or throw something beige in the air fryer if it doesn't and then try and motivate myself to get out the craft supplies and make my brother a birthday card for next week.

It's been a good week. survived the first half of the school holidays. decent weather. several barbecues. Had my hair dyed. continued my longstanding drinks with internet strangers hobby.

I've started a new crochet project and I've gone up a geek level or two now I've sorted out a reverse proxy for my containers on my debian vm and I've mounted my NAS to my laptop (mint).
