The 23rd & 24th; A truly excellent day.

The 23rd of September. A truly excellent day. Apart from lack of sleep but that is negated by the good stuff.

I really didn't want to wait what could have been another month for my new phone to come, I decided to reserve one of the phones that are being released in shops each day. I stayed up until midnight just pressing refresh on my iPad and listening to podcasts, then about quarter past twelve I got on the site and reserved my phone to be picked up at eleven today! And I've cancelled the online order obviously. Then I had about two hours of sleep but my brain was obviously just too excited so I've had lots of coffee today.

So first thing this morning I made sure my phone was all backed up (didn't take long as I did it a few days ago), Mommy went to the chiro at ten, then we went to the Apple shop! A man wanted to just rock up and buy one, more fool him. A very nice man sorted it all out for me, but I didn't buy a case which I now regret. Go back tomorrow before photopheresis and get one.

Then I got a salted pretzel roll from M&S (yusss) and Mary Beard favourited my tweet which was a win.

This afternoon has been lots of phone stuff which is tedious but fine when it's exciting new gadgetry! I've named her Joan after the only female pope.

The 24th of September.

So tired I can barely breathe. I took a Zopiclone but it didn't work, then I woke up at quarter past twelve, one, two, three and from quarter past four I was awake. So I'm just exhausted.

We went into town to get a case for my phone, (well, for the back of it until TwelveSouth bring out a BookBook for the 6 plus), some chunky wool and thicker crochet hooks, and I popped into 6/8 for a latte and picked up a sandwich for my lunch.

621 was very busy so I had to go to the waiting room for a bit but I eventually got onto a machine, and it all went very smoothly. I thought we would be late for liver clinic but then James wasn't even there so I didn't stay as no one else there knows me. We saw Monica on the way out and she hadn't seen my face since before the bruising so we had to have a chat about that.

So we came home ear and I crocheted a wee sock to protect my phone's screen inside my bag.

Now it is Bake Off and bed!
