Sneaking out of work a bit early to get down the driving range in a vain attempt to become less shit at golf

Aaand I’m still shite
Local club day this weekend, so probably be going there. And hopefully it won't be 30 degrees like the last one we went to!
I wish I had something to do. Instead I'm going to get my eyes checked with drops that make you look high as a kite to make sure I'm not going blind
Me and my mate just finished up an EP together, so going to be going over that and hopefully writing some new music!
Half day today, husband is going away tomorrow until Tuesday so I get the house to myself. I'll do what I always do, immediately revert to my natural nocturnal rhythm.
Got some sewing to do and maybe even a knitting group to go to and talk to real human beings. Gonna gamedev my little heart out and slob around in my pyjamas surrounded by an increasing pile of unwashed plates. No bedmaking, craft projects taking over the house instead of just their assigned room, knickers everywhere. I also have to watch exactly 11 episodes of Star Trek TOS so we're synced up and can continue on together next week.
Then ten minutes before he's due home I'll have a quick square round and everything will go back to normal.
(the actual todo list for this weekend includes things like "clean the bathroom" and "learn Greek" but the above description is way more likely to actually happen)
Going to our friends house. They have a hot tub. Quiet Saturday, will do parkrun then have a few jobs and errands in town. Will watch a film in evening. Pizza and DnD on Sunday. Can't wait for work to be over!
I would like to join your friend group please.
Just realised I replied to your comment rather than the main post. But sure come on over!
That's a busy weekend you got there.
Three and a half days of no adult supervision, baby! (conveniently forgetting about any actual work I'm supposed to be doing on Mon/Tues, shhh)
I work on a rota, so I'll be working through the weekend until Wednesday lunchtime. However, I've come to Anglesey to work which is a lovely place. Unfortunately, my work requires dry weather and it's currently raining.
Getting out of work early to drive down to Plymouth for the weekend to meet up with some old mates. Hotel rooms are all booked up due to a Rod Stewart gig, so staying in an Air BnB for the first time.
Home at half 2 last night after far too many drinks with the lads, working today. The joys of not getting hangovers.
It's too hot and my hayfever is too bad
i am already eyeballing that Stella laying in the kitchen. its 10 am
Friday though so it's acceptable any time after noon.
now eyeballing the clock. Isn`t it 12:00 yet?
It's close enough
Just about to use a paint sprayer for the first time, after destroying my last roller handle with my over-exuberance. Wish me luck!
That’s a coincidence. We’ve just got a paint sprayer that we’re hoping to try out this weekend for the first time too.
Fridays are great because we don't have our useless and overly long morning stand-up meeting.
Fridays aren't great because we instead have an even longer sprint review meeting that doesn't start until 4:30...
Urgh, we finish at 3.30 on Fridays :-)
How long are your standups?!
Usually like 35-40 minutes. Problem is, they are a growing start-up that hasn't grasped that they have grown too big to still have company-wide stand-ups.
Sheesh. That's like a townhall (except most of this info really is irrelevant to you) every morning then? The worst I've had is around 20 mins and the best is 5 (luckily 5 at the mo)
