Reading & Work.

 Here we are again, another week done. 

This week has been absolutely exhausting, 2 onsite work visits that needed to be completed. 1 of which was a 5 hour train ride each way, not a  single route either, both trips needing changing of trains.

I had forgotten how much I love train travel. Although in current times I was surprised to see so many people with massive suitcases, obviously on their travels. As Wednesday entailed 5 hrs travel each way I managed to read a whole book! 

due to the nature of my job I can't really work on the train, and I always think if I was driving I wouldn't be able to work, so .... I read. Mind you on the journey back I was so tired I don't think anything that I would have written would have made sense.

 By Thursday I was exhausted and hoping for a quiet day working in my home office, but no... it was incredibly busy and as I was so exhausted I was most definitely not on form. I am really struggling with working at the moment, my brain doesn't seem to want to hold information and when I get pulled into emergency meetings where I need to take the lead my brain just shuts down.. Is this a middle aged thing? I am currently trying to come up with a plan of how to leave work..id rather retire but I'm not quite there yet, shame.

Thursday night therefore was a TV night, and yesterday a day to catch up with sleep and restore my self. Feeling much more awake today I have been hitting some of my creative to do list, its Easter weekend, house chores can wait. I may have also started another book

This is my 4th book in a week, I'm really in a reading mode at present, reading to me is escapism and I have loved each of the books I have read this week. I even have my next lined up

Its a good job we have a quiet weekend lined up. We aren't planning on going anywhere other than local as it is just so busy everywhere. Grandad is coming for lunch tomorrow [we're his bubble] and I have a walk lined up with a friend on Monday. Other than that its just us 4 leading a quiet life..
