I am infinitely grateful to be wfh on a gorgeous day like this, ngl. Blasting the music and regularly getting up from my chair when I'm bored/frustrated has been helpful. How are you going with the work? I'm making progress, bit spotty but I'm 30% of the way through the shitty reports. If I can get all the worst done by 2pm leaving just banal easy work for the rest of the day, I'll be winning.

Also what leftovers are these?! I love a good lunch that you can look forward to.

I'm so jelly of the WFH! I'm on track to get everything finished on time thankfully. It's just annoying that there's heaps I could have had done already were it not for the dragging of heels by others!

My wife's pasta, sauce, and killer meatballs (all home-made of course or her Italian mother would disown her!), will surely put me into a food coma for the latter part of the day however :D

Hahaha, I only have myself to blame for this backlog (procrastinating on the unpleasant stuff - bandaid being truly ripped off today). It's much more frustrating when the delay is caused by others!

And that does sound like a very sumptuous meal to look forward to (succulent, even) - I definitely hear you on the food coma though! Leave the easier stuff to after you get that in your gullet :D

That's the plan! In fact I'm just about to tuck in to my meal! My Succulent Italian Meal! :D

Edit: ELO are awesome. That is all.
