A came downstairs at around 9, and found that L had already had a super productive day, she’d smashed out half-an-hours work and had a call at 9.30. A had been scouting out (and dreaming of?) potential solutions to his coding challenges (he had to admit it to Leila when she saw him super pensiveContinue reading “Day 65: Three-way Zoom Date”

Alex woke up really early and came down with Leila to start work at around 8.30am. Leila felt like her routine of being alone in the morning had been interrupted, but she quite liked it. A made himself a coffee (it was too early for L pre 9am) and they settled into work. A spentContinue reading “Day 64: Scouting for Hairless Boys”

Leila woke up around 8.30 and A followed her down an hour later, A started making a coffee and went up for a shower and when he came down it was on the counter with a little heart – which was super cute. A worked on getting amplify to work and then on going throughContinue reading “Day 63: Our own Wimbledon”

The alarm went off at 7am exactly. The Tesco’s delivery man was bang on time and arrived at 7.01am and L ran downstairs to answer the door. A followed and they both unloaded the 80 items of shopping, half asleep. L felt weird doing it without having brushed her teeth. They both then went backContinue reading “Day 62: Glass swallowing”

Monday started with L heading down to work (she was a little late) and A staying in bed and playing games. By the time he headed down, L was into her day, but not feeling too enthused about how it was going. A jumped between topics, doing the first lecture of CS-50, the Harvard introductionContinue reading “Day 61: Walking South”

Alex was wide awake when L woke up to head off to see her parents, and was bothering her in the morning. He played Indian music while Leila rushed to get ready and did some dancing behind her in the mirror. L steadily got ready and decided to wear only comfy clothes for her visit.Continue reading “Day 60: Separating for the first time”

We decided to start our weekend with a walk to the garden centre, which had opened a few days earlier. Unfortunately the queue was too long and we decided not too wait given we didn’t actually need anything and just wanted to browse. We headed to Hidden Coffee and got our usual. Alex also boughtContinue reading “Day 59: Psych! Capaldi, Curry and Coffee”

Leila had a super productive morning and was super happy when A came down. L went for a walk, did her 9-10 call, booked in 3 concerts and a tennis court, sent her family some Lina Stores food, and just felt great about her productive morning. A came down and made a coffee and LContinue reading “Day 57: Sourdough spelt waffles”

L woke up early and started work whilst listening to the FT broadcast conference which was on whether China would remain “dominant” in a post Covid world. She thought the speakers were a little biased so she zoned out a little. Then she listened to Anish’s work webinar on Return To Work guidance for theirContinue reading “Day 56: Hey Mama”

Alex had his final exam, Macro, this day so he was up reasonably early and spent the morning revising. Leila had gone out in the morning to pick up coffee and brought Alex back some Hidden Coffee which he proceeded to murder by putting it in the microwave for 1.5 minutes before Leila stopped him.Continue reading “Day 55: Final Exam is over!”
