4am: Dylan wakes up. He's not feeling too special and insists on another COVID test

6.05: we are downstairs (came down around 4.45, we wanted it to warm up) I took a test too and we are thankfully both negative, but I give Dylan some Calpol.

6.30: Dylan has a ham and cheese sandwich Warmed in the microwave. I have reindeer crumpets (one buttered and one with golden syrup). I've had my heart meds and checked it off my list 

7.15: I begin getting ready for work

7.45: leave for work

8.05: we are walking into the building. I begin getting picks and get them all done by myself - it's so odd having 3 of us in on an open!

10.25: Manager buys us all a Greggs, it's a bit of a tricky one today as it seems the Christmas Spirit seems to have passed some people by.

11.37: head on to my break. I need it, I'm tired, I don't feel right and my back is aching. Crisps, mini roll, flapjack from my locker stash and my squash. 

13.00: Manager had left, he gifted us some new company branded notebooks and pens (we were really super stoked about this having said we were interested lol!) We began predicting how many customers we ended up getting for the rest of the day. The highest guess was Ronan at 12... We grossly underestimated.

2.15: Ronan takes over and I get to leave. Come home, get in my PJs and sit with Dylan and Tricia.

5: after chilling on the sofa, doing toy day on animal crossing, catching up on news and watching Dylan on Pokémon we have dinner.

6.30: we settled down and watched A Christmas Miracle for Daisy on Netflix and ate some Heroes. I grabbed a cup of chocolate milk. We all went to bed fairly early that night (I was very tired!) and Dylan helped get things ready for the morning since he became a Santa helper mid decemeber last year 😉
