That's kind of incredible, really. I think I drive around 15 to 30 hours per week. I just couldn't imagine never driving anymore. I go too many places.
Yeah.. but I live very near to a shopping complex, transport facility and overground train. Everything is within reach (including work).. and then, other days, I just get driven around by other people. Haha.
Ah yes, my problem is that I'm the one who drives everyone else. That, and my place of work differs daily.
Apparently you can only drive electric or hybrid cars into London city centre without incurring a fine (“congestion charge”). And by 2035, it’s anticipated that all vehicles on the UK road will be either hybrid or electric (includes buses). With all these new laws.. I guess I’m OK being “out” of it. For now.
I see no reason for me to drive at all. I can pay other people for that in buses, trains, trams and cabs. If all else fails, I can rent a Boris bike. But whenever possible, I'd rather walk. Unless I can get the DLR.
Progressing my other MC's plot line. Quilani is taking a night class in S&M 101, and it's orientation is a lecture to summarize how the course will go. Also she showed up 5 minutes late, and has to stay after class.
Calculating that I'll need to work 40 hours a week to meet the financial requirements to bring My Amazing Man to Blighty.
Yep. Never done that before, and I'm worried I'll burn out. If it's less than £10 per hour, I'll have to do more.
I suppose it depends on what your job entails. I think 40 hours is enough regardless of the job, but if it's physically demanding you're certainly ready for the weekend come Friday. Oh, and here am I, all this time, thinking @Cave Troll was a Blighty.
Sitting here about to crawl into bed soon, already feeling tired. May still try the magnesium to relax your muscles while you sleep trick. Feel asleep a little later last night and woke up a little later. Not by much but still routine got off a bit still hit all the big signposts though. Other than not drinking as much water. Was gonna do more self-care stuff tonight like shaving, but kinda ended up just resting which is fine. I need my energy to be back on track tomorrow. Sold out this weekend so hopefully, I can get my floor cleared up tomorrow. Good supervisors are on tomorrow at least. Going into the months reflective mode, listening to my playlist, pulling back a bit, and just prepping things.
Taking a break and considering if I want to write some more or not. Managed to use the magic Time Warp wand, but only jumped 28 days ahead. Figured that was a good place since I spent a good long while on their first 2 days of being stranded on the orbital ring. Kinda fun not writing adrenaline war stuff, also nice to know I can write some cutesy stuff like this bit. “Hard to believe its been a month already, nervous?” “A little.” Delainey blushed rubbing her toe into the floor. “Awe, you’re so cute when you’re shy.” Her tone smokey, taking Delaney’s cheeks in her hands kissing her deeply. “Whose my brave girl?” Prionya giggled tickling her sides. “Me.” Delainey squealed through her laughter. “Whose my brave girl?” “Me.” She was breathless and the tickling subsided.
That’s what I was saying. I thought you were England. Well, English if you want to be pedantic. And anyway blame your missus - she used the term before I
1) He does actually have English descendants. 2) I'd like the record to reflect that I am not an official Mrs at this point in time. That's some expensive stressful fun for us in about a year/ year and a halves time.
Listening to KISS. I don't care what anyone says, 70's KISS was kickass. Especially Peter Criss' vocals on Black Diamond.
Listening to music/watching political videos while working on writing a little bit. Not much progress but enough for tonight. Work went well, got my main floor done. hopefully, clear the rest of my section up tomorrow. Not so great supervisor back tomorrow....but just want to get through that to get home and write more tomorrow night.
I mean, I get the environmental thing but she can`t really paddle from Ireland to Arizona soooo. Sitting here hating the chaos. Been keeping my routine alright but had planned to use my spare time tonight to work on writing. Got off work a little late-ish (both halves of my section our completely clean now. It`s just upkeep until we sell out this weekend) mother kinda ended up spiraling into a manic state worrying over...prepping for the event that the government inactes marshal law and shuts off the power grid....which I ....what. About caused an accident driving home, though that`s nothing new either. I wish there was some way to help her other than just trying to manage it from being too damaging. Those our steps she has to take for herself though so, idk. Then while making a list of things we need for prepping (Hatchets!) discovered an error in a bank account...after the bank had closed so that`s looming over us. Can`t do anything about it until the morning. Then one of my three best (only) friends is in the ER and just....things just keep happening and I just idk. Should be going to lay down soon, hopefully, hear something soon. Wish the world could just stand still/
