Monday is here again, which means back to work for most of us.

Has it rained yet where you are? What’s happening this week?

Half way through my run of 7 nightshifts, I was hoping the nice weather would last until my days off but alas in the North of Scotland we’re returning to our damp grey usual.

I bought some garden furniture. It rained within the hour.

I have a day off on Friday to go dormouse monitoring - assuming that it is dry then. Dormice don’t like the rain and disturbing them when they will get wet is not something we want to be doing.

dormouse monitoring

That sounds interesting, are you doing population surveys?

Yes - part of the national monitoring programme. I have been monitoring this particular site for almost 20 years now. The population is fairly steady here overall.

Any chance of dormouse pics, or do you not want to intrude?

Up at 4.15 trying to get tiny child to sleep. Then at 4.55 slightly larger child wakes up and refuses to go back to sleep. Downstairs at 5.00 watching Sarah and Duck (quack).

Although Sarah and Duck is good at any time of day, it’s especially good in the quiet hours.

It rained up here in gloomy Yorkshire. And by rained I mean absolutely tipped it down. This week I need to get a better fan for my bedroom and some new tights. I’ve sat here for a couple of minutes trying to make a joke about them being related but I just can’t think of one. :P

Desperately hoping my 16 month old has a nap so I can start my next book.
