Junior is 5 months old and weighs 8kg. Not sure if I should switch from pampers no. 3 to no. 4 yet? Same applies to baby car seat group 0+, which can carry weight up to 13kg or should I put another one in from group 1? Cot is getting smaller, clothes are getting smaller, the baby is getting bigger and us parents are aging rapidly | The following 3 users would like to thank jacek for this useful post: | |

I changed the time of a clock because it was fast and on 15.00h. Just to find out, it actually IS 15.00h. Where did that hour go? I thought "losing time" was just a saying. |

I'm leaving a place I've worked at for over a decade. I've not been into the office since March - working from home. I have a locker in my workplace, which contains a keyboard, mouse, headset and nothing personal. I really don't want to go to the office as it means two hours on public transport for the return trip.
I created a ticket on the internal system. I chose the option that says "you can open my locker without being present". At little while later I get a message "we can't open your locker without being present". So why is that option there? And if I just ignore the issue - they'll have to open to recover the locker for other people to use.
Meh.
(Yeah, yeah - I'll drive in, leave my car on the forecourt, do the deed, drive home). BUT THAT'S NOT THE POINT!!!!!

Don't ask me what I think about ticket systems. FWP big times.

Early to bed; early to rise, makes one healthy, wealthy and wise.
That’s my excuse and I’m sticking with it.

So I stagger out of bed at this undoGly hour, grab a flashlight, and take the critters for a pre-dawn walk.
Still dreaming of that farmhouse on a hundred acres...

I actually wake up about six in the holidays anyway, although my normal alarm is about 5:20 ... for which I wake up a few minutes before it starts.
