Tuesday I ate my lunch too early (one of the 10:30 munch on lunch) and figured I'd get a snack for mid-afternoon before I jog back to Waterloo... Nope, left wallet at home, but I raided the fruit basket - at least there was an apple I could munch on.

Fragile Do Not Bend
At the moment I appear to have a virus that isn’t too bad but has turned my brain to mush? Luckily I don’t have to do much thinking today. However I went to Waitrose and used the scan as you shop thing, but I forgot that meant I could pack my bags as I went round, so I ended up putting it all in the bags whilst standing in one of the aisles and feeling like I must look rather suspicious. I also scanned the barcode for my free coffee before I realised I’d forgotten my coffee cup. |

Yesterday I left the flat in a hurry, annoyed that I’d forgotten that it was Friday and therefore the day for putting food waste and other rubbish out into the street. It took me at least a minute to realise but thankfully before I got to the point of texting OH and asking home to do it. |

I was scan and shopping in a rush this afternoon. I stopped myself from putting the scanner on the shelf, then scanned the coffee and went to put that back on the shelf...

I was just about to leave on my run commute to work today and realised I didnt have my pass which has my locker key on it. A bit of thinking back and I knew it was in my cycling jacket pocket as I cycled yesterday. But I put that in the washing, glance at the machine and what do I see but the jacket spinning around with 43 mins of the cycle left. Luckily I switched off the machine and after a minute I could open it and retrieve my pass/key, with a bit of water spillage. |

I picked up a hairband and my brush this morning, brushed my hair and plaited it. Looked for the hairband. Couldn't find it. Kept looking. Eventually found it - on my wrist. |

Went into the local hardware store and asked if they had a dustbin and brush. They knew what I meant, which was nice. |
