G’ very early morning!! Speaking of wine I was out looking for the Blue Moon - is it a blue moon all
month or was it only one on Halloween night ?!???

JupiterKid

Watching TV at home, nothing much worth watching on, as per usual...

Slept for most of Sunday as I needed to catch up on much-needed sleep. When I was up and pottering about earlier between 3 and 6pm in my dressing gown and PJs it was miserable outside so looks like I didn’t miss getting out for a walk.

Hot chocolate sounds like a good idea. Sunday blues setting in over here, it's back to work tomorrow morning, I already saw that there are almost 1000 emails waiting for me when I turned work email back on on my phone :eek:

Approximately 997 of them will be sh1te, sent by middle managers to make themselves feel important, or employees anxious to look busy.

You can tell I'm a Monday morning person.

A blue moon is when there are two full moons in the month. Essentially a full moon on Halloween night. The moon isn't full anymore, it is now waning.

New game!. Shout about cake and tea/coffee/whatever yo fancy yourself and play whack-a-mole with all the noggings that suddenly appear 'coincidentally'

Blue Nun is the wine, you couldn't have an 80s Christmas without it.

That's the second time I've mentioned the C word this weekend, it's like I'm looking to be banned.

3rd night in a row now. It was nearly 7am by the time I got to sleep this morning. Resisted all temptations to have a nap today and yet here I am.
Have to be up at 7 in the morning, so that will be fun.

Very familiar, i hope you catch some rest but being exhausted does make it as impossible to sleep as being energetic

Gremlinertia

Got a pedometer app on my phone recently, pure curiosity maybe try walk more on days off. Have already passed 10k today. Does that mean i can take tonight off?

Same. My sleep pattern is all fecked up. No sleep since 4am (3am Irish time) and have to get up in an hour.

Gave up and succumbed to Boards! Ah, will sleep tonight.

Woah - 10k is pretty impressive Grem! I’d say a rest day is allowed. Unless you’ve caught the bug (the walking bug, not.. the other one! )

Have a similar app on my Samsung, and it’s interesting information. Except when I look at it for a Sunday and it tells me that I took 14 steps all day!

Gremlinertia

Heh i had a lazy day recently, just wiped out from everything, 568 steps, guessing mostly kettle, fridge and toilet trips :pac:

CET Snowy?

CET indeed Grem. Always have that vague feeling that I’m on the wrong time, even though it’s been about six years now. Kinda like the transition from miles to kilometres. Took ages to stop trying to convert them in my head.

Anyhow. To prepare for workside!!

Wishing all and sundry a good first Monday of November.

Gremlinertia

Hope the day flies and the weather isn't quite as rainy as here

Deskside send help, I'm allergic already.

Just about to do the school run , yippee
Then when I get home I’m going to go back to bed. Nearly 5 before I nodded off last night

Gremlinertia

I think the moon did a number on a load of us here!.

smurfjed

Discovered that taking photos of the moon from a 500 mph seat, doesn’t work.

So this is the ground shot.

JustAThought

ooooo - looks nice and big and blue! I’m
wondering now - its not always so tight and shiny looking - and sometimes it is definately butter yellow or mild orange looking. Whats all that about!?

lovely sun out today - nice and warm in ‘work from home’ bed. mmmmm

Wow that's a really cool picture. It looks like something out of the XFiles!
Seems eating that chocolate so late last night kept a few of us awake. Funny that a few of us on here have insomnia too.
I've tried everything for insomnia over the years from hypnotherapy to acupuncture but recently found that a sleep machine and black out blinds works for me. I think its mostly psychological and if I can lull myself into a peaceful mindset by listening to crashing waves in a pitch dark room my body gives in and sleeps. That or I recommend a bottle of vino:)
It really is an infliction though and I hope we don't have too many sleepy heads here today!

Grandeeod

In the kitchen. Just marinated some slivers of beef. Gonna slice some peppers, chili's, onion and carrots. Some beers chilling in the fridge too. Feel like spoiling myself this evening. Had a quiet weekend. It's not a school night as Ms G is still restricted until Wednesday.

If I go to bed when I first feel tired no problem, but if I don’t wide awake.:(
I’m watching the news and I’ve just noticed that one of the cars who block my view driving out of the estate left their window open , in the rain
