A Good Day

hilsWOO HOO! My mid-year appraisals are finally all done! Now I don't need to think about appraisals until December.
And in other good news I had a lovely surprise today. This afternoon I received an email saying I'd been given an Inspiring People award for all the work I've done packaging up fobs and taking them to the post office, including when I did 50 of them on my week off. The award is a £100 gift card which can be used in a bunch of different shops (online). I got one back in March for working a crazy amount of overtime to get everyone set up working from home which I used to upgrade my ancient Kindle to a shiny new one. I have no idea what to spend this one on.
It's really nice to be appreciated though. I didn't expect this at all and I nearly started crying when I saw the email.
So, yeah, a good day.
It's movie night tonight and the movie that has been chosen is Safety Not Guaranteed which I have never seen or heard of. That's what's fun about movie night, because a different person picks the movie each week we all get to see things that are new to us. Haven't seen a bad film yet so I think everyone on my team has pretty similar tastes.
I'm going to try and squeeze in an episode or two of Detective L beforehand. Shit is getting real.
So, it turned out the pretty psychologist WAS a criminal, but not the criminal mastermind. I don't think. He's in prison now but I feel like he wanted to be there? So possibly the shenanigans are not over yet.
