Apologies for being missing in action - hadn't realised quite how long it had been! I think so much of the last two years having being screen-based for work purposes put me off wanting to spend much time looking at screens out of work! I have missed you all though and have just had a rapid read-through of the thread so am up to speed. (Much sympathies to
@karen8967)
However, I am determined to reclaim some of my favourite pre-pandemic activities (this thread, some other social media places I venture which have also been neglected) and walking, and am looking to rid myself of a number of church-based admin tasks I took on during various lockdowns/times of restrictions when the music was so restricted and I was not really functioning as an organist to support congregational singing, just providing appropriate music. I really do want those hours back for myself now. That is proving trickier as we still have a number of those who used to be on rotas not quite returned to full resumption of attending in-building activities. Interestingly, all of them expecting things to be exactly as they were pre-March 2020... um, that would be a "no".
I have, most miraculously, avoided coming down with any variant of Covid so far! How I keep dodging it in my education workplace is slightly beyond me - especially during the month I was doing mandatory daily testing!!! Mind you, I'm still pretty strict about mask-wearing and other sensible measures for me.
We have also just emerged from a three days full OFSTED (Inspection for those not familiar with the term OFSTED). For myself, it's not particularly stressful, but it has been for numerous colleagues so I'm exhausted from supporting them. Don't think there will be much done tomorrow...
I probably ought to toddle back to the Moderate Exercise thread as well, as for the first time since 2019 I'm back up at full walking strength!
Diabetes has been its usual self....
