I just made a phone call.
It was regarding something relatively straightforward and simple to sort out and I was on the phone for 37 minutes. Most of that was on hold.

As soon as it ended I burst into tears.
I am exhausted. My neck and back are agony from the tension. I’ve got a headache and I feel sick.
It took about 30 minutes to stop shaking.

I wrote my speech but they interrupted, trying to get me to do security questions first.

But I did it… yay?

I really wish there was a way to never have to make phone calls.

I do everything I possibly can via email and online. If it has to be a call usually I get D to make them for me, but if there’s any security questions needed they insist I’m on the phone, even when they have no way of knowing if it’s me by my voice.

I really hate having to rely on him and it makes it even harder if they’re only available during working hours.

I've got an afternoon in London tomorrow and no idea how to spend my time.

My original plan was to go to the Natural History Museum but then I remembered it's half-term, so no thank you.

Any wonderful ideas?

@miffyhelen you should check out the musical museum! They have some AMAZING player pianos and music machines and the volunteers are so lovely.

@miffyhelen we had our wedding reception there in 2016, it was so much fun.
