Bit stressful today! Covid-19 tests taken & Jess’s Birthday

Everyone getting a bit tense today to be honest – tough atmosphere which carried over from yesterday I think.

Got up a bit late and worked for my usual company in Leicester and it was okay. Wasn’t as focussed as I could be but it was okay.

Tash was out of sorts and niggly and it made for awkwardness around the house – I decided it best to simply keep out the way, fed up with it and best way to avoid the issues. She’s not “enjoying” not working and thinks we’re having a go at her about it. We’re not, but there you are.

The four of us went to Thornhill P & R in the morning for our Covid-19 tests that Tash organised last nigh – it was like a scene from a film with tents and cones set up and loads of official looking people directing us to our testing area. I found it really unpleasant – swabs taken from back of throat (gagged) and up nose (high up), hated it. Done and dusted and we got our results the following day (we’re all NEGATIVE).

Back home and Annie turned up to do haircuts – shouldn’t really be here but Tash was desperate. Got mine done, Charlotte not happy about it! That caused friction and then Tash went off to garden centre and Bicester for a number of hours.

Nice dinner in the evening and then at 6.30pm we dialled into a Zoom meeting for Jess’s birthday in which Vic & Danny had organised a greyhound race night – was a bit of fun but we were nowhere near winning it. It was nice to have a lot of people in on it but then too much was had to drink; Miles had come over and he and Charlotte outside in the bar for some space. Then later Jack was causing argument as well because of eating constantly and not letting up!

All very niggly today/tonight, hopefully Wednesday will be better and everyone will have got whatever it is out of their systems

Tash went to bed but I stayed up and watched more episodes of Jack Ryan series I have got into – pretty sure I’ve watched it before but I don’t remember it.

Anyway, off to bed at 1.00am hoping for a better day…
