I mean I've cried writing her card! Tomorrow will be HARD! I'm meeting and training a new starter too so thats not ideal

Cacoethes 19-06-2025 10:06 PM

That's really sad beth :(
But at least she's leaving for a positive reason
Hope tomorrow is ok!

Ahimsa 19-06-2025 10:07 PM

I've just messaged her and told her she's not to open it in front of me - she said I can't either, she's got me a card!

How're you Beckie?

not_so_insig 20-06-2025 04:56 AM

Morning all.

Cacoethes 20-06-2025 08:01 AM

That's sweet beth!

Morning everyone

not_so_insig 20-06-2025 08:03 AM

How are you doing today Beckie? Are you working today?

Cacoethes 20-06-2025 08:15 AM

Im ok thanks. Got a headache though which is no fun!
I am indeed working today. For the next 4 days D:

How are you dawn?

not_so_insig 20-06-2025 08:37 AM

I am ok thanks. Been awake for several hours and done some stuff. I woke up early because I was too hot. I think I have done my chores for this morning bar washing my cup.

Cacoethes 20-06-2025 09:36 AM

It is very hot!
Hopefully you'll be able to catch up on some sleep later.

I've just picked up the asda order and got work drinks. And cash out for the hairdresser next week. And got petrol.
Need to do morning things now. But having a brief sit down because im exhausted! Didn't sleep well last night.

not_so_insig 20-06-2025 01:40 PM

I had a nap before so had some more sleep. I feel ok now.

one_step_closer 20-06-2025 04:08 PM

Hi everyone. I hope you're managing ok in the heat.

I hope your day is going ok, Beth.

I'm glad you caught up with a bit of sleep, Dawn.

Is this your new-ish kind of headache, Beckie?

Cacoethes 20-06-2025 04:21 PM

I think the headache is just the heat and lack of sleep.
Meant to be 33° tomorrow. And I'm at work again AND it's delivery tonight. So will be hauling around boxes and drinks all day.

Hope everyone's day's are going ok

one_step_closer 20-06-2025 04:22 PM

That's not a great combination. Are you keeping hydrated at least?

Cacoethes 20-06-2025 04:26 PM

Trying to! Its been busy so hard to find time tbh.
Gonna be worse tomorrow because weekend

not_so_insig 20-06-2025 04:52 PM

Yeah my sleep is effected too due to the heat. Although it is hot here there has been a slight breeze today so it's been a bit more bearable, especially outside.

Cacoethes 21-06-2025 08:22 AM

Morning everyone

not_so_insig 21-06-2025 11:12 AM

Morning all. I slept much better last night.

Cacoethes 21-06-2025 12:12 PM

Morning
That's good :)

not_so_insig 21-06-2025 01:13 PM

Thanks Beckie.

one_step_closer 21-06-2025 01:43 PM

Hi, everyone.

I'm glad you had a better sleep, Dawn.

How are you, Beckie?

not_so_insig 21-06-2025 02:03 PM

Hello Lindsay how are you doing today?

Cacoethes 21-06-2025 04:31 PM

I am melting! It started raining and it is SO humid!!]
Been fairly busy, because of strawberry fair in Cambridge. But nowhere near as bad as yesterday!

How are you lindsay?

one_step_closer 21-06-2025 05:46 PM

What's the weather meant to be like with you both tomorrow? I definitely need it to rain but not be hot because I need to go to Tesco and if it's going to rain I'll need to wear a jacket.

I'm a bit low and tired.

not_so_insig 21-06-2025 07:06 PM

It's supposed to be 17 degrees with lots of rain tomorrow Lindsay.

Sorry you're low.

Cacoethes 22-06-2025 03:58 AM

Morning everyone

Ahimsa 22-06-2025 12:43 PM

Morning Beckie (well, afternoon now!)

How is everyone?

I slept awfully with the heat, so now I don't feel particularly well.

I've swept and vacuumed the kitchen, put a wash on and done a load of washing up though. I've got so much to do today but just dont have the energy or motivation :(

Cacoethes 22-06-2025 12:50 PM

I also slept awfully, due to several reasons

I had a very stressful drive to work and it is busy D:

Sounds like a productive morning!
What else do you have to do?

not_so_insig 22-06-2025 01:01 PM

Afternoon all. I am having a hair cut today.

one_step_closer 22-06-2025 01:36 PM

Hi everyone.

I hope you get through work ok, Beckie.

Well done with what you've managed, Beth. The heat does not help.

Are you getting a trim or a new style, Dawn?

not_so_insig 22-06-2025 02:55 PM

I just had a trim Lindsay. It was getting rather long.

What else do you have to do?

What time do you finish Beckie?

I've been to the tip, and to Boots.

I need to -
- put the washing out
- put the next load on
- mop the kitchen
- vacuum and spot clean the living room carpet
- tidy my room
- clean the cats stuff
- sort the litter trays.

It's my 6 day week this week at work, so I'm off Thursday, but thats it until 1st July. (this is just at 1 job, the pub shifts are very very few now, think I've only been given 4 hours for the whole of June)

Cacoethes 22-06-2025 04:30 PM

Thanks lindsay!
How are you?

I finish at 9pm again :(

That is a lot of stuff beth!
Good luck!

Ahimsa 22-06-2025 05:09 PM

Not too long to go Beckie! I've got some 12-9's in a few weeks (so have had to forfeit doing the quiz and lose money :( but I'm lucky this doesn't happen often)

We're getting there!

I need to -
- put the washing out DONE
- put the next load on DONE
- mop the kitchen DONE
- vacuum and spot clean the living room carpet (vacuum ran out of charge, so its charging now)
- tidy my room
- clean the cats stuff
- sort the litter trays. DONE


How is everyone else's day going?


On top of the washing up from earlier and sweeping/vacuuming the kitchen, and going to Boots and the tip, I don't think I've done too bad today :)

one_step_closer 22-06-2025 05:20 PM

Do you always go to the same hairdresser, Dawn?

Keep going, Beckie! Is it cooler than yesterday at least? I don't know how you manage with so many awful customers. When I worked in Blockbuster the most I had to deal with was kids stealing sweets.

You're doing great, Beth!

I've done all my housework etc but struggling to focus on things or decide on something I might be able to do.

Cacoethes 22-06-2025 10:22 PM

Well done beth!
What a busy day for you!

It is a lot cooler thankfully.
Had to deal with some people not wanting to leave when we closed but nothing is getting in the way of closing time! XD

Well done for your housework lindsay :)

Cacoethes 23-06-2025 09:13 AM

Morning everyone

not_so_insig 23-06-2025 11:23 AM

Morning all. I have a busy afternoon as I have tesco coming. Only one substitution which is the exact same thing as I asked for! Can't see any difference. A few odd short dated things though but one is a sandwich which I was gonna eat today and the other is raw veg which is generally safe to eat past it's sell by date as it's obvious when veg isn't safe to eat.

Cacoethes 23-06-2025 01:28 PM

Hey dawn?
What else are you doing apart from Tesco

Im at work. Was hoping for a quiet day but it has been unusually chaotic.

not_so_insig 23-06-2025 01:38 PM

Nothing much else Beckie is going on today. Tbh my tesco shopping order takes an hour to put away with rest as I get very knackered. Might ask the tesco man to bring it in. I have quite a few bottles and cans today so have heavy stuff. Went through a lot of drinks when it was roasting so I am restocking lol.

Cacoethes 23-06-2025 01:39 PM

Ah ok. Fair enough.
Yeah I've been trying to drink loads too! Very important!
Downside is that I'm peeing non stop XD

one_step_closer 23-06-2025 03:46 PM

Hi everyone.

Did you start work earlier today, Beckie?

I hope you get all your shopping put away ok, Dawn.

not_so_insig 23-06-2025 04:05 PM

I have put the vast majority away now Lindsay. Just mainly the drinks to sort out. I have put the fridge stuff away as that was my main priority. I had no freezer stuff. Unfortunately I sustained an injury during putting stuff away from some roses (the flowers not the chocolates). I am ok though as it was minor.

not_so_insig 23-06-2025 07:49 PM

I have put everything away now. I am doing some minor tidying up as tv is crap tonight. My injury has reduced to just a red mark now so I think I will be ok. I will keep an eye on it just to be safe over the next few days.

not_so_insig 24-06-2025 06:22 AM

Morning all.

Cacoethes 24-06-2025 07:57 AM

Morning dawn

not_so_insig 24-06-2025 08:20 AM

How are you doing Beckie? Are you in work today?

Cacoethes 24-06-2025 10:06 AM

Im ok thank you.
Not at work today! Woohoo!

How are you?

not_so_insig 24-06-2025 02:32 PM

I was ok but am feeling low.

Cacoethes 24-06-2025 02:44 PM

Sorry to hear that
Why reason?

not_so_insig 24-06-2025 03:03 PM

Idk.
