I also had Piper to walk, cats to feed and a rabbit to find. Don’t ask, that blooming rabbit is going to be the death of me. Today I had the unusual event of someone coming to have coffee with me. So of course that meant the house needed to be tidy and I needed to be showered and dressed like a proper human instead of in trackies with my hair chucked up in a messy ponytail.
My client was also expecting two videos from me today, so I doubly had to look tidy and not like I work in my pjs whenever I can. Yes, I know, you’re meant to get up, get dressed etc like you are going to…
