It's my first solo team leader day at foodbank so I'm here nice and early to get set up, except the keyholders haven't arrived. So much for trying to be organised. On the very rare occasions I managed it somehow it still goes a bit wrong.

I've joined a webinar on chronic pain in menopause and once again they're banging on about mindfulness. Box breathing isn't going to cure my arthritis ffs. I'll keep watching but I'm sceptical anything useful to me will be covered.

I've chickened out of a difficult situation and gone with a easy out. Basically I'm buying myself time and will execute a slow and dignified exit. Cowardly but here we are.

No one will admit to being pro phone loudspeaker but everywhere I go some selfish twat is doing it. Methinks people are fibbing.

Lovely day for an Alzheimer's Society Memory Walk

Despite multitudes of interruptions I've caught up with last night's Celebrity Traitors & that ending has got me desperate for the next episode. Unfortunately for me I'm out seeing Mike Wozniak live so will miss it. Obvs Mike Wozniak live is better than the telly but I know what I mean.

The jump up from my last normal car was so scary I got the dealer to come with me on the test drive & show me all the stuff. He was so good with me. Finding a good dealer will make all the difference.

Somehow & without my knowledge or consent my car now has gemini in it - probably via android auto. I hate it.

Work are starting a podcast on AI but it's on Zoom which makes me think someone doesn't really know what a podcast is

I put myself forward to be an AI super champion at work & I'm having to jump through hoops & each time I jump one another gets added. It had better be worth it.

To the people complaining these sex abuse cases have created a world where men now have to think 10 times before they touch a woman. Yes, that's the point. It's called consent. Welcome to human decency.

At spin class. Someone walked in, did a lap of the studio then set up on the bike behind me. We are the only 2 people here. Why?

So I had an interview and they offered me a 2nd interview almost immediately. I've withdrawn myself as it was getting a bit out of hand. I don't want the job and I probably can't do the job. Let someone more qualified have a chance.

There's a system that will help me in one of the jobs I do, access has been given to my manager, she's 'too busy' to look at it, it's too expensive for me to have access as well, she's emailed me to email someone to get an update, and lo everyone's time gets wasted.

I spent the weekend with food bank people hearing their stories so I'm really not in the right frame of mind to be at work today in the corporate world dealing with inconsequential nonsense

Could this be hyper sexual? I've only just learned the term so it's entirely possible I've got it wrong.

Big ex is living in Scotland so it's all a bit odd but both of us are still far too hung up on each other to even consider dating anyone else... I have no idea how it's going to work out!

We all know now that a referendum is legally binding so I say build a big fence, put border controls in place and treat all 328 of them as self governing. No financial support. No access to anything outside of the fence - including jobs - without the proper visas. They can have their independence.

For context, male friend is in a long term relationship, lives with his partner, & lives 200 miles away. In no reality is he in a relationship with me nor has he ever been.

My male friend who exists in some sort of fantasy world has gone off in a strop because I spent time with my big ex at the weekend. I expect I'll hear from him again because nothing seems to get through on a permanent basis. However big ex may not be entirely ex these days so I'm not losing sleep.

I'm at the London Podcast Festival to see Beef & Dairy live. How surreal will it be this year? Guess I'm about to find out.

My GP has been great so not a criticism of them but menopause & HRT is just awful isn't it. It works brilliantly when it works but tweak it or try something different and it's straight back to square 1. Those symptoms are just lurking there waiting to jump out & get you.

My sister & I were on a flight home from Dublin. When we got to Stansted it was deserted & our luggage took forever to arrive. Didn't know what had happened til we got home & dad was watching on TV.

Robert Jenrick wants to give a medal to the man who beat a woman in the head at Conference. If Farage doesn't kick him out of the party by end of day... Anyone still supporting Reform UK, who's seen this⬇️... it's time to stop being civil with them.

Last night C2C broke and I couldn't get home. Had to pay for an Uber. Can't claim that back. Still no trains on my 3 stop bit of the line this morning so I'm WFH. I say it a lot but - what exactly is the point of forcing us to the office when we can't actually get there?

Applied for a job for which I'm extremely under qualified on the basis of what the hey and I've somehow got a pre interview with their talent acquisition team! Maybe that's where my very casual job hunting has been going wrong - not been stupidly over ambitious!

Having done my 2 day AI training bootcamp I find I have to do a 'train back' to prove my competence and my ability to train others. I've decided to do demystifying AI so I can use it as a cover to finally figure out what all the jargon means
