All I want for Christmas

[SueAppleRun]

Is some left socks, please can someone tell me why out of all my lovely running socks I only have right ones? The left ones have all run away 🤣😅😅😂

Work is going down the pan as we now have staff with COVID so if I don't get here much before boxing day Have a Wonderful Christmas all and run happy if you can

So sorry it sounds like you aren't going to get a relaxing Christmas.Good luck with the left socks. I need left socks too as my toes always seems to go through the left one.

Merry Christmas and I'll keep my fingers crossed that you do get some time to yourself.

Thank you, at least I had today off and the sun shone, it's not looking great for Christmas, but hey maybe it'll only be 2 COVID does mess things up

I've no idea where all those left socks have gone. The same thing happens with my ergonomic ear plugs I use in the pool. Always the same ear goes missing, I have a collection of spare right ears 👂 😂Sorry about work, doesn't sound too good, hopefully Covid keeps away for you and you manage to relax a bit at some point over the festive period

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Birdlady64]

My socks swam off with your ear buds, at the moment it's not looking great for work

[59er Graduate10]

I think all socks, rubber gloves and Wellington boots should be sold as single items!

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to 59er]

I agree

[Yesletsgo Graduate10]

Maybe Father Christmas will hang up all your left stockings on the mantelpiece for you on Christmas night 🎅🧦🧦🧦🧦🧦😂😂

That would be nice, oh but I'm not here I'm at work 🙂

[Dexy5 Graduate10]

Oh no. Just as we thought things were normal again! I hope it doesn’t spread in your care home. We got pinged last week which was worrying but thankfully all clear.

If those socks come swimming by here, I’ll try and rescue them.

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Dexy5]

Thanks and glad you are all clear

[Teresa1632 Graduate10]

The sock fairy has them. 😉

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Teresa1632]

They need to bring them back

[Teresa1632 Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

I'm afraid they have already been turned into Tupperware lids 😉

[Vespina Graduate10]

It’s always the left ones that go missing for me too. How strange. And suspicious 🤨🤣

Hope your staff feel better soon and you’re able to get a Christmas break. And hope you stay Covid-free too

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Vespina]

Thanks, it's strange about the socks

[Roxdog Graduate10]

Oh I never manage to keep a pair of socks. I don't know where they hide! We have an odd sock drawer which is always full!Sorry to hear about work- you deserve a rest!

Whatever happens, enjoy the festive period, I'm sure you'll manage to get some time off somehow!

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Roxdog]

Thanks, I might just not go in one day

[Oldfloss Administrator 60minGraduate]

They have all gone to hang on the children's bedposts of course !!!

Oh gosh.. you work so. so hard... stay safe and try to enjoy what time you have not at work! See you the other side of Boxing Day! xxx

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Oldfloss]

Hey Floss, they are all little short ones but if that's what happened to them then I hope they come back after Christmas, it's weird wearing 2 right socks, Have a peaceful Christmas

Happy Xmas W&S! 🎄💐🎊🎁

Hope you don’t get stuck in work…I always used to work a late Xmas day, then have NY off.

Good luck with the socks 🧦😉

Stay well! 🤞🏼🏃🏻‍♀️🐌

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to LottieMW]

Thank you Lottie, I'll now be off for New Year 😃, I'd rather work early Christmas, when I've worked late I've felt it's all over once I get to work, I can enjoy everyone's Christmas, help them open presents and make sure they have a good time, then come home and celebrate with Willow, and hey, I found a left sock this morning so have a complete pair on Have a wonderful Christmas xx

[LottieMW Ambassador in reply to SueAppleRun]

a left over from when my family were small…up early, Santa’s been, Xmas lunch around midday, then off for a hospital late shift! Perfect!

When it became just OH and myself, and I was a community midwife, I always offered to work on the patch Xmas Day, often I would do the Xmas Eve on call, so those with young children could be off.

Yay! A pair of socks! 🙌🏼🧦🧦Result! 👏🏼

Enjoy your Xmas 💕
