I got up this morning nice and early, got sorted and then came into the office and started working as normal around 7.45am. After raising a few tickets and sending emails, I noticed that the dates on these — and on my laptop — were showing as Sunday 12th October.
I checked with ChatGPT what it might be and reset some settings and restarted the laptop, but no effect.
After about 45 minutes, I messaged the group on Teams with a screenshot from my laptop, because when I opened my personal one that was showing the 12th as well. Luckily, Josh replied saying, “erm, it is Sunday 12th!”
I was honestly shocked — I genuinely and completely believed it to be Monday and a normal start to the week. I made a bit of a joke about it, but at the same time, it played on my mind that it might be something more than just a blip. I was so sure.
Then I came in and stood on the sofa to open the curtains, slipped, and fell — not a great start to the day!
Anyway, Jack was around, and then Charlotte stopped by after her gym session, so it was nice to have them both here for breakfast and catch up. Jack told us everything about the issue with him and Jodie. All very worrying for their relationship — I really hope they sort it out; she’s so lovely.
When they left, we got Jenny’s trees done — quite pleased with them, I must admit, managed to get them looking good.
Did a few more jobs in our garden and then had a quick walk around Shotover before heading home for dinner and a quiet evening in.
Watched some TV and then had an early night — kept worrying about Jack and Jodie. I’m sure it’ll be fine.
Reflection:
A strange start that properly threw me off balance — literally and mentally! But by the end of the day, things had settled and it was nice having both Jack and Charlotte around. Still, that mix-up about the day has stuck with me; a reminder that I might need a slower start sometimes.
Win of the Day:
Got Jenny’s trees sorted and looking great — proper job, that one.
