Roses and thorns. Valleys and troughs. Whatever you wanna call it, tell me one good thing and one bad thing that happened to you today. I'll go first:

Peak: I finally got round to returning something that was running dangerously close to the end of the 28 day window

Pit: I had to deal with the usual rude, condescending receptionist when booking a GP appointment, but I'm always too scared to complain because I really like my doc and I don't want to get booted from that surgery

Peak- I had cake

Pit- Day 2 of Jenny from the block going round my head.

I might not make it to tomorrow...

To be fair, there are worse songs to get stuck in your head

But... Earworms are usually the same excerpt from a song running on a loop. Try finishing the song in your head, then thank me later

Peak: My oldest son read 2 full pages of a book that is way too advanced for his age.

Pits: My youngest (2) said that his uncle taught him the words “fucking shit”

His uncle (my brother) is a dick.

On the other hand, I can't believe he's gone 2 years without picking up a swear word though

Through: an awful day at work, dealing with a patronising and passive aggressive colleague, who created a lot of unnecessary faff for no reason.

Peak: just finished the gym and it felt good. I thought I'd injured my foot playing football on Monday but didn't affect tonight's session, so pleased it's nothing serious.

Peak ~ had a lovely walk in the countryside with my doggy, much needed today. Didnt see a soul.

Trough ~ had some secret tears at work earlier. I saw a woman about my age having a lovely time with her dad, and I thought that should be me, but it never will be Oh my god, here I go again!

Quickly thinking of another peak ~ ate half a bar of dairy milk daim bar chocolate!

My mum gave me some really useful advice back when I was struggling with some colleagues at an old job:

"You will literally never in your life find an office where you get on with 100% of the people, so suck it up and just get that money."

Reading that pit gave me anxiety man that’s sucky. But I felt that happiness of the peak.

My peak is I went for a carvery with my gf and filled my belly with yummy food.

My pit is that I ate a lot of food of carvery and I feel like an unsexy house now.
