Happy Christmas Eve runners

I finished work just after 1pm yesterday, only an hour later than expected, but Health and Safety checks done, Fire alarm tested, Covid risk assessments updated, night staff found and Cook chased for boxing day (apparently I failed on that one and looks like the boss is going to have to go in and cook) πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ˜…

I muttered I suppose I could if no one else can and heard rather a lot of don’t you dare’s let the boss do it for a change

So after horrendous night of clutching a hot water bottle to my middle vowing I will never eat Christmas cake or mince pies again I slept til nearly 10am and it looks like Willow took the opportunity to wrap presents

Christmas music in the ears and off...I decided to take my phone so we could have photos, boy is it chilly, not cold but chilly, blue sky bright sunshine but chilly

The park was full of kids on bikes, the sun was bright and I could hardly see a thing, 1k 8.15 and slowed to a walk, down the side of the golf course, slip sliding away, across the road and on to the beach, it’s beautiful so ran a bit walked a bit and took photos

Turned round at 3k and who should I see walking towards me? but Willow so we walked back to the lights holding hands and crossed the road, jogged round the lake and home πŸ˜€

That was fab Willow is hobbling a bit his backs a bit sore. There will be hot baths yoga and massage later

There was some cheesy rolls in the freezer so into the oven they went and then spread with butter and marmite

Happy Christmas eve everyone

Oh and I dyed my hair red last night, it looked great when done, this morning in the sunshine it’s definitely ginger rather than red πŸ˜‚

Wonderful! Love the red hair, always wanted red hair but never (yet) died my hair.

Would have wished you loads of mince pies, but considering your need for hot water bottles after a mince splurge, not sure that’s a good idea 🀣🀣

Have a wonderful Christmas, you too!

Thank you, mine verges on chestnut in its natural state so red is a good colour for me although the white streaks are now definitely orange

Enjoy your Christmas

Thank you, it’s distinctly more orange than it’s been before but now i match my teenage grandsons lol, the crispy cheesy rolls with marmite are one of my favourites Have a lovely day tomorrow

Son has just informed me they will be down at 10 in the morning so will have to run after

Fab photos!

I used to use henna to bring out the red highlights...but had to stop when I got too much grey and it just went orange. I use a fancy hair dye now...meant to be deep cherry red...but yes, in the sun, it still tends to look orange πŸ™„πŸ˜«πŸ˜‚

First year of retirement...*very* strange to have no need to request off duty and organise clinics and calls for the week!

Happy Xmas πŸŽ„πŸŒπŸ’πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸƒπŸ½β€β™‚οΈπŸŽ„
