Full on kill room set-up and then a ghostbuster planted in the middle. Otherwise known as paining the kitchen ceiling day.

I might have actually finished painting the woodwork yesterday. Today I will start on the walls and hope the wallpaper stays up. 😬 But first a gym session and a little shift at work.

My view while washing up until the new, bigger window gets fitted in a week or so. But afterwards, I’ll actually be able to see out of the window.

Day off today. It would have been a 3-day weekend, but I signed up for an extra shift tomorrow morning. Oh well. Hoping to get the hallway finished this weekend. One more coat on the woodwork and then paint the walls. Oh, and paint the doors. Hmmm, and the ceiling.

My son has informed me that he has a new girlfriend. He was so upset when he broke up with the last one and seems very happy again now. This, of course makes me happy.

Starting the day with a walk down to the harbour to watch the sunrise. It’s been too long since I did that. Lovely.

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Aaaand relax. Evening shifts are done and Ihave a day off. Looking forward to getting to the gym as I haven’t been for the last two days. Then on to the painting.

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Last two evening shifts coming up now. Hopefully won’t have any more for a little while. And today and tomorrow I’m only working until 8, so I still get to see Kasper before bed.

050

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I am full of snot. Hoping it’s just a little cold and I’m not going to be knocked out for days.

120

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Sunday morning, I have the gym to myself. 7.5 hours of work ahead and then I’m going to go home and just relax. I don’t need to do anything this afternoon/evening. There are things I could do, but I’m not going to let myself.

060

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Feeling exhausted today. I slept really well, but not enough, it seems. I’ve started eating a bit less to lose the extra pounds I’ve added over the last year. I can really feel it in the gym. I’m weak AF today.

010

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Sitting on the sofa, drinking coffee, fire lit. A whole day off ahead of me. Going to go to the gym, do some painting and thoroughly enjoy not having to go to work.

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Evening shifts done for the week. A day off tomorrow. Going to really enjoy it.

150

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

3.5 hours into my 12 hour shift. Already got told off by a doctor 🙄 Just realised that it’s 20 years today until I can retire. The countdown begins…

180

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Rough evening at work yesterday. We lost one. I didn’t sleep well and am going into a 12 hour shift. Longing for a day off tomorrow now.

260

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

I’m just sitting on the sofa and watching YouTube and doing sudokus. I’m not generally good at doing nothing, but today it feels so needed.

020

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

I really need to get out and give the wall the last coat of paint because I’m not sure when the weather will be dry again, but I’m so tired. Maybe I’ll risk it and hope for some dry weather later in the week.

121

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

Woke up before 4. I will not have time for a nap today, but have to work until 10 tonight. I’m hoping to get out and finish painting the outsides of the house while it’s dry and make it to the gym before work.

150

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Just a warning: I have three days of evening shifts ahead of me. Prepare for a whole lot of moaning. I really hate evening shifts. I basically won’t see Kasper for days and I’ll be really grumpy.

120

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

First day back at work today after 17 days off. Came home and slept for a couple of hours. I thought maybe I’d do some painting, but probably needed the rest.

140

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Today I’ve fixed a hole in the foundation and have begun to paint it. I’ve sanded down the bottom of a door that has been sticking for the past 5 years. I’ve also chopped some kindling and done two loads of washing and made our lunches for tomorrow. This was supposed to be a day of rest!

120

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Shit! Ran out of paint. Shop isn’t open again until Monday.

230

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Kasper has decided not to do overtime today and we’re skipping the gym so that we can get the house painting finished. My wrists are feeling the strain from painting all day yesterday. I’m going to be going back to work on Monday with a broken body.

160

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

My body aches so much. A whole day of painting with a shitty roller that doesn’t hold any paint, so I’m having to press it into the wall. The whole house has had at least one coat of paint now. Just a little wall in the driveway to start now.

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

Good morning everyone. I had a very rare night where I slept all the way through until 5, so I’m feeling refreshed. Hoping the weather will be dry enough to paint outside today. But first, leg day.

080

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

I’ve painted half the woodwork in the hallway with a first coat. Will this house ever be finished? It feels like a never ending list of projects ahead of me.

140

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Been awake since 3, so feeling lazy today. Taking a rest day from the gym. It’s still too wet to paint outside today, so going to caulk and paint the hallway today.

010

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

I have successfully wallpapered the hallway. It’s not perfect, but it’s pretty good. I’m pretty proud.

3100

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Wallpapering today as the weather is going to prevent painting outside.

140

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Painted half the house with the first coat. It’s taken two full days. Brushed and primed the other two sides, but it looks like we’re getting rain for the next two days. I really want to finish before I go back to work next week.

020

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

So glad I brought Branston pickle back with me. I’m having cheese and pickle sandwiches every day and it’s bringing me so much joy.

This is a public information message for people 50 (or nearly 50 or older). I want to share a horrific fact my son told me recently so that you can also be traumatised. We are older than the high five.

Getting the gym done early so I can get back and use the whole day to paint the house. I only managed to paint one end of the house yesterday. It took way longer than I expected.

030

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

My best friend has organised a trophy named after my mum to be donated to the local musical festival. My mum loved watching all the kids perform at that festival. She’d be delighted to be a part of it. Balling now. 😭

050

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

I’ve primed half the house. I’ll see if I can paint at least some of that amount later. Would be lovely to have the house look at least slightly different when Kasper comes home.

030

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

Well, I’ve medicated the migraine and slept it off. Then had a shower to wash it off and went for a walk to blow it away. Hopefully all that has done the trick. Kasper has gone back to work today while I have another week off. Hoping to make a good start on painting the outside of the house.

170

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

I have a migraine. I think my turning 50 has had an effect on Kasper. He’s worried it’s a brain haemorrhage. 🙄 Yes, Kasper, now I’m 50, every headache means a stroke.

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Blow out the candle and make a wish.

This is the last evening of my 40s. I’m excited about the next decade.

We are nearly ready to start wallpapering the hallway, so Kasper has drawn his usual (very mature) trademark massive flying cock on the wall for future owners to find.

Today has been wonderfully normal. Coffee by the fire, gym, coffee with mother in law, bit of shopping, bit of DIYing (plastering a corner profile today), napping and about to throw dinner together. It’s great to be home again.

050

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

Gym time. Time to put some of those extra calories to good use.

020

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

Slept right through to 5, got up, showered with my own soaps, made a pot of our coffee, lit a fire, got a load of washing on and now just sitting and waiting for Kasper to wake up and enjoy the familiarity of home with me.

160

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Unpacked the goodies and the fridge magnets.

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Finally on the plane and headed home. It’s been great to spend some time in England, but now I’m ready for my quiet little town in Denmark again.

£13.40 for two cups of bloody coffee!

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

We have just met my best friend for breakfast and are now on our way to Gatwick. In typical fashion we are being held at a red light due to a line side fire and a signal failure. It wouldn’t be public transport in England without delays.

160

Jodi @jodlepodle.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Things you see in England that you don’t see in Denmark. Homeless people sleeping rough Vape shops - so many vape shops Rubbish out on the roads for collection Water bottles with sports spouts (sippy cups, as Kasper calls them)

London just Londoned all over us. Went out to find coffee and got very rained on.
