Today has been hella chilly. Even sitting directly under the heat, I ended up whacking on a hat and extra socks. Hopefully tomorrow feels less chilly, and if it doesn’t… well, I’ve still got my hat. That aside, feeling a bit rough. Probably not hydrated well enough. Hard to do it properly when cold. Will have to try to do… Read more »

I’m bemused that my laptop keyboard is taking somewhat hilarious wear. I guess ‘A’ is the main victim, with a touch of ‘E’? I can understand the WASD having a bit of wear ’cause games, but still. Having said that, I like the fact that you get the red glow through the hole, so. I amuse easily, what can I… Read more »

Z and I went down to the pub on the river for a belated birthday lunch. Lovely meal, and lovely exposure to cold. We were sitting in the car for a few minutes waiting for it to defrost, and I couldn’t resist photographing this loveliness to share. But yes, good day! Nice lunch. My Switch Lite finally showed up; I… Read more »

I had a hankering recently to play some No Man’s Sky, so I rolled up a fresh game and set out. This ship… stars. It was the third bit of salvage I found, and it’s just so delightfully ugly. It reminds me of some sort of tricked out orange pick-up truck, and well. I’ll probably scrap it same as anything else… Read more »

Managed to shift a few bits today. Managed to get the kids to poke at their respective messes a bit too. Victory? Definitely. I think that the kids are probably a bit more in the mood; now that the painting is done, they can start decorating their spaces a bit more. Z put LED strip lighting along the top of… Read more »

I’m pleased at how quickly this sock is coming along. Is it the pattern? Is it because I’m comfier doing top down? No idea. I do think that next top down pair I do, I’ll have to remember to put a few extra stitches at the top, just to give a bit more stretch over calf chonk. Blech, time to… Read more »

I got my new teeths! They’ll take a bit of getting used to, but that was always going to be the case. I’m holding up okay for the most part. And, I guess, it’s a distraction from the vertigo attack I had overnight. I don’t know whether it was ear fuckery, or too much sugar, but I wasn’t impressed. I’m… Read more »

It’s my day! I am doing my day things, like eating Chinese and admiring cats. And being a bit of a catgirl too, ha ha; Z picked me up some fingerless gloves that look like cat paws. They’re super fluffy and nice. Not ideal for knitting or typing, but I’ll make it work. Anyhoos, that’s really about it. Back to… Read more »

We needed to pop down to Tesco to pick up a few bits, and this sign just like. Whut. The signs are more or less uniformly one item, and then a seperate item. So like… ingredients? Sort of ambiguous. Cheese and butter ingredients? I guess I could have investigated more closely, but I figure this stands better as a ???… Read more »

It’s gonna be a bit of A Week™®, so I’m tackling it with clean hair. We’ve the decorator in to do the kid’s rooms this week. I’ve got my new denture to pick up. There’s other things too, but my brain can’t count past two right now, ha ha. That’s about it. Just kicking back with my yarn, occasionally dropping… Read more »
