Title Edited Text

The calendar reminder 'Wear green for Anna' was the first thing I saw when I woke up. I pulled on a green shirt and headed out later than I should have, getting to T L C just before 10. I worked until nearly 1pm, sorting out preparations for the upcoming dentist visits – checking NHS coverage and scheduling. Around 1pm I popped over to Meadowhall Retail Park briefly, then stopped by 54 Staniforth Rd for a short visit before heading to meet Deimantė.

We met at La Piazza Caffe in the mid-afternoon. She looked stressed. Her finances are in a mess – she only had £15 for fuel, her credit card balance is £441 with penalty charges, and she needed £140 that day to pay off a debt. I listened, tried to help her think through options. She also had a dentist appointment booked for 4pm, costing £52.46, and we talked about getting her to book the AC for her place. I told her the insurance company has accepted liability for the fence damage at home – quotes are around £8,800, and a loss adjuster should visit within 48 hours.

Back home in the evening, I was glued to my phone messaging everyone. John and I chatted about his work schedule – he's got a speeding course Thursday and passenger duties Friday, and he finished his bus driver training. We talked football: Boro and Hull playoff chances, Southampton's appeal. He wants me to join him at Akbars soon. Suzana complained about the cold and rain in Sheffield and Thessaloniki – she's tired and had a last-minute visitor that stressed her out. We swapped Instagram links. Janice had a charger issue – it wasn't working, so I walked her through removing preferences; I told her I had enough charge and could top up hers at a Tesco point if needed. Rafal sent an attachment and I just got a thumbs-up. Sarah at work confirmed the fence insurance claim is moving forward – liability accepted, loss adjuster coming.

It's been one of those days where every conversation circles back to money or problems. At least the fence is getting sorted, and Deimantė has her dentist appointment – though I'm not sure if it actually happened since I didn't see her again. The car charging issue is still hanging over me; the hybrid had 73 miles of battery left, but the charger at work is unreliable. Might have to use petrol or swap vehicles. Weather's been miserable – cold and rainy – which doesn't help the mood. I'm hoping tomorrow is simpler.
