Well, I can tell you I am absolutely exhausted, we had a very big day at work yesterday, as we hosted a "Commonwealth Games Day" in the Rehabilitation Unit, where I work as an Allied Health Assistant with the Physiotherapists. With the help of some amazing co-workers (hi Jen) we pulled together a fantastic day for the patients and staff alike. The patients just loved it and it really bought us together as a team. It was exhausting though and I for one, am quite glad it is all over.
That aside, my week has been much the same, work, home, dinner, bed, start again. Don't get me wrong, I love a good routine and mine is all about getting into bed early, so exciting hey? That and eating well and keeping the home fairly tidy and clean. I had a spot of deep thinking yesterday after talking to a co-worker and came to the conclusion of how very different we all are and the lives we lead. I mean, it would be terribly boring if we all did the same thing and I just love how diverse we are, the interests we follow and the lifestyles we keep. Do what ever floats your boat, I say.
Now one with what we bought, spent and ate at Chez Chain-
