Fri..yay?

So I woke up Friday morning feeling a little rough... and so so tired!

I usually sleep early and get a good 8-10 hours sleep, I know, a lot. But I really do love my sleep.

But we got home from the work event around half 2 and I was waking up, hungover, at 8am. Not cool!

But I got up, took some painkillers and got myself ready for work. Atleast it was Friday! I felt so rough though and was really hating the thought of work all day.

I popped to Greggs and got myself a sausage sandwich to help me through, but the man gave me a fat off baguette.. sorry who needs a sausage BAGUETTE at 9am!? Not me! So I went to Ant's work and left half for him.

I then headed into work and mentally prepared myself to say hi to everyone. I had no make up on as I'd left it at work the day before.

So I looked rough! But I walked in smiling and saying good morning to everyone as usual.

I turned on my computer, got my self sorted out and started my day.

Not long after i'd sat down, my director messaged me asking I was feeling.. the answer was like f*cking sh*t!! But I said not.. great haha.

He was the same and then asked me if I'd seen the video he'd posted on the general channel (slack - messaging app everyone at work uses).

The video was of everyone dancing on the stage at the Awards and I was there frigging headbanging to living on a prayer! It was hilarious but I couldn't help die a little inside...cringe!!!

My manager was also messaging me asking how I was feeling. Again, not great! She said the same! 

She was working from home today, good preparation right?! She  needed her laptop though and so I went downstairs to meet her and give her her things.

I sat in her car for a bit where we both moaned about how we felt but said how good the night before was.

She asked me how I was and who was in the office and then told me to go home and work from there! Omg I swear it will go down in history of one of the best moments ever! I was so relieved to go home.

I quickly printed what I needed and did anything I couldn't do at home. And left as fast as I could incase someone was to try and stop me! 

I got home and set myself up on the sofa. I worked from there and Ant came home for lunch. 

I think he was a bit miffed that I was home and he wasn’t! Which is understandable. 

But we had a nice lunch together. 

It was nice when he got home and we could start the weekend, not that we did much. Just had a chill on the sofa.. Ant gaming/me watching my garbage tv which I love. 

Tuesday/Wednesday

So again, I'm playing catch up!

Tuesday Lois came round after work and we ate a banging beef curry that she'd made for us. It was really yummy and she put peppers in it but cut them up really small so I actually ate them.

I'm like a kid!

We chatted and chilled for the night which was nice as always.

Wednesday.. erm.. I honestly don't remember! Oh I went to the gym at lunch as Antony had a work lunch.

I did a legs bums and tums which was really hard cos my legs and butt were absolutely killing from a session earlier in the week.

At the beginning of the class I asked a guy what the instructor had said about getting weights and he wasn't sure... said to get some free weights and a kettle bell.

Then really patronisingly said.. are you okay with a 14kg? (that's the kettlebell I chose)

I said yes thanks.. and wondered if he was okay with his 10kg *insert upside down smile emoji which is also my fave emoji*

Anyway, turns out he was not okay with his throughout the class but I was with mine! Ha!

That night me and Antony had chicken burgers, steak burgers and sweet potato fries which was so so good! Ant tried to make his dinner look arty...

Looks great right!

Thursday was a bit stressful as I had a work event that evening and it was quite unorganised as my manager was off sick and we hadn't really made a plan before hand..

So I did have quite a stressed/anxious morning worrying about it. I think my main issue is I don't want people to think I'm really rubbish!

Anyway.. who cares because it was all fine. We walked to the train station (in heels, a little painful!), got the train, got a cab and bam.. we arrived.

It was such a bloody good night. The event was Comms Business Awards 2018 and we won the Software channel product of the year! It was awesome when we won, the whole table went crazy, cheering. It was so loud, probably the loudest there.

Everyone at the table ran up to the stage to collect the award and get a picture taken. I didn't as I stayed back with the new girl that's not started yet and didn't want to go up. Which is fair enough!

So then we had lots to drink and lots and lots of dancing! It was so much fun. I actually got a lot drunker than I should have for a work event...

I drank quite quickly at the beginning then realised I was pretty drunk so stopped.. but I was still feeling it when I got home so it still lasted me ages.

We got on the stage and sang, danced, headbanged. The guys who ran the event actually came up to us at the end and thanked us for having such a good time.

Here's some of the pics.. my neck is still so sore from the headbanging..











Oh and David Mitchell is really funny!!
