10th April 2020. Working from home, M’s Diary Entry


The Final Day of Working From Home by M

I have really enjoyed working from home the last few weeks, but am worried about how hard David works. So much so, I have decided to take early retirement so we can be together more. Plus I can help with his workload

I told David today and he looked utterly stunned and had to put an arm out to steady himself on the door frame. I could even see tears welling up in his eyes, he was that happy. When I left him in his office to give him time to take it all in, I am sure I heard him sobbing – I really didn’t expect him to be so emotional about us working together :-) ;-)

THE END

Herdwick Sheep Being inclusive is important so I think it is time to spread the net and start making fun of other folk rather than just ourselves.  David's Diary Well it has been bit strange this weekend as there is no demarcation line between work days and weekend days with her being home midweek. I did get caught out and started panicking and making excuses for why I wasn’t working on Saturday.

Cough wise, I have had to drop that ruse as it was freezing in the van. I did try to sneak ...

20th March 2020. Working from home, M’s Diary Entry, Day 2

M,s Diary  Nothing to write about really, I have a strict deadline to meet so it’s mostly been head down this morning.   Around ten while having a coffee and some nice biscuits from David’s not so secret hiding place in the kitchen bits and bobs draw I realised there is one major disadvantage from having my desk facing the window rather than the passageway to the kitchen, and that is being reminded just how untidy the garden has become over the winter. I am going to have to get David to help a lot more this year, so I think it’s time to start building him up to it. I know he doesn’t have a lot of time due to his workload, but we really need to get some kind of work life balance if I am going to be at home more. He has been in the office all morning and said he doesn’t want to be disturbed as he has so much to do. I think he is trying to catch up as I am off work next week to use up the last of my holidays. I had hoped to take it easy, but David wants to try and grab ...
