MrsPsycho Does her WonderWoman Impression

[MrsPsycho]

It's only Tuesday and it's been a busy week at work already. And, I was reminded a lot today, that it's Pancake Day. Lovely, I like Pancakes...then I remembered it means I'll have to find a way to free up some of the Time I already don't have.

"What're your plans for tonight?" Co-Worker R asked me on the way out

"Well, I need to get home, do the dishes, make supper because MrPsycho is weighing tomorrow so wants to eat as soon as he gets in from work, I also need to go for a run and take a bath and maybe I'll make pancakes too"

"Good grief, busy night," she blinked at me "Don't overdo it!"

I strategized on the bus home.

Plan went like this:

Run sink when you get in and leave the dishes to soak

Go for a 30 minute run

Get back and put supper on, it needs an hour at least to simmer

Do the dishes, you can just rinse them now

Bath

Check supper

Make Pancakes.

When I got home I ran the sink as I changed into my kit, put dishes in to soak, loaded up my backpack and set off. I did quite well, waved to a couple of neighbours I'm friendly with, Ed the Mechanic (Zombies, Run! character) keeping me company and I was going at a really good pace...until I realised it'd been over 5 minutes and Ed hadn't spoken to me and I hadn't picked up anything yet.

Somehow my phone had paused the app at 3 minutes and 33 seconds.

"Crap. Oh well," I pressed play and, undaunted, headed off again, "never mind."

It was a good run, cold but good and at least it was dry, the last few days I'd been put off by apparently needing a snorkel and flippers if I'd wanted to try running - we've honestly had it all around here, torrential rain, snow, ice, more rain and hail and, you guessed it, more rain!

Like I said, a good run, followed swiftly by putting on the supper, doing the dishes and, finally having a bath (I never realise how cold I am until I get into the tub!)

I did make pancakes, but Mr Psycho came home late and was a bit conscious of having to weigh tomorrow even though I'd had Dhiny work out the points them with me (2pts, for anyone interested) and nobody can eat only one pancake. So, I've saved the batter and I'll take the ones I already made to work

All in all, I've been busy.

Still no sign of Cecelia and I'm not missing her one bit!

Take care
