Charlotte’s 26th Birthday

Charlotte is 26 today…how does that happen?!? My kids are all grown up, I hate it. Looked through old photos of her and the kids and friends and saw them when they were about 5 & 8 and it’s so lovely, I even looked slim and fit!! Yes, I used to be…

Had a nice morning opening presents and breakfast, and throughout the day she got loads of love on social media. 

Everyone was working and we then had lunch in which Tash and I took her to Jacob's Inn and Sue met us there too with Bella. Had some fizz and nice food and was very relaxed, Charlotte got some nice presents too. Back to work and then signed off around 5.45pm - I am getting back into my stride and of course, all the shit work and atmosphere is coming back. I am desperately trying to distance myself from the emotion that comes with the role - we'll see. It did affect my evening if I am honest, I kept thinking about emails and work that is building up!

Anyway, enough of that - I have to compartmentalise it and forget it, it's just a means to an end..payday!

Got the fire going because it's getting colder now we're hitting Autumn, even put the heating on for 30 mins - sacrilege!!

Mum came over and then Tez, Rua and Harvey and it was a nice evening of wine and lasagne. 

More presents for Charlotte and then an earlyish night to bed.

It was a good day and she was suitably spoilt by everyone so that was lovely and she definitely deserves it, she's a good one and Tash and I are very, very proud of her.
