Staff meeting for one

We have repeat business from our first client. That's how you build a reputation. My goal is to not just do more projects with them but to help them realize their original vision of a sustainable community. ☕💋

We also get paid today. So, extra peppermints in the home office. 🍬

Today I learned what nul is. 🤗

Today has been surprisingly good. Going to fall asleep to a podcast now. Maybe I'll have a dream that I'll remember tomorrow morning. Goodnight 😴

Brisket and Cabernet Sauvignon is how you do BBQ in Houston. Three months until rodeo.

Had a girly movie night where I suggested we watch Bridget Jones since nostr:npub18u0kz84lj5tzmgywwdu4mhaa8ghtlednahqyj56kqv408lf9r23qgnlumk got me in the mood for it ☺️ I haven’t seen it since I started in publishing.

I have discovered that we are all just living the pride and prejudice life. We all have a Darcy and a Daniel Cleaver/Mr. Wickham in our lives. I bloody dated one earlier this year! He sounded and acted just like him and was the most self absorbed posh prick I’ve ever dated. Much like Daniel Cleaver he keeps bloody coming back. We were even supposed to go on a city break. I can’t believe I fell for the bastard. Have ignored him, but kind of wish I’d have that ‘kiss my ass’ moment with him. Dated my Daniel Cleaver early though 🙏🏽 silver lining.

The movie is 💯 % accurate.

Work with snobby posh people in publishing who think they are above everyone ✅ (not all of them are like that though 🙏🏽, but a lot are…)

Colleague like Perpetua who hated me until recently where she suddenly seemed to like me 🤷🏽‍♀️✅

Wear inappropriately short skirts and tight tops to work ✅

Feel like an utter idiot almost every day, with evidence to back this up ✅

Self deprecating humour ✅

A mother who’s just… 🤦🏽‍♀️✅

Dating a ridiculously charming guy who cant be trusted and keeps coming back ✅

Going to a multitude of work parties where the only sustenance seemed to be wine ✅

Have amazing friends but can never seem to follow their advice properly ✅

Have no filter and always make a fool of myself in public situations ✅

Am chubby ✅

Have big underwear (and small ones too though) ✅

A bit naive someeeetimes ✅

From a posh village in the countryside ❌ (I’m a city girl from the hood 🤷🏽‍♀️😎)

Run outside in my underwear in the snow ❌ (pyjamas yes, underwear no. There’s still time for that though)

Turns out, I am just a stereotype of a women in publishing in London. Wonderful 🤣🙏🏽

Wow. You really are Bridget Jones. The real question is did your guy actually look like Hugh Grant. For the record, I've only seen proof that you're smart and well read. So, poo on anyone who thinks otherwise.

We've all had our Pride and Prejudice moments. 🫂

Finally started a coding course. Took the first step and played around with Scratch to get used to typical code structure. Now jumping into C. I've played with Python before so this is familiar. But I need to take the next step and create something with it. Baby steps.

I've realized that those green plastic stoppers that Starbucks gives you can be recycled as stirrers for your at home espresso. #themoreyouknow 🌈

Still seeing flowers. These usually bloom early spring for a few weeks. Now they're back.

Also found a cute acorn. Probably dropped by a squirrel 🐿️
