I finally started watching this sitcom. I began to find it really funny about a third of the way into the first season. Abed is a delight.

A Tale or Two

I'm finishing off a mediocre thriller and looking forward to getting stuck into a better book... it will be one of these two next I think.

Afternoon in the Garden

This week I'm too busy to shop, too busy to cook. Popped in here today to grab some ready-to-eat meals and salads to keep me going for the next couple of days.

I wore this top today. I think it is so pretty but it is rather irritating to wear. The sleeves always slip down my shoulders!

Part of my daily routine is locking and unlocking this chain. We've a burglar alarm and security gates but this is just one extra level of security, just in case.

Hello Again

My grey succulent is flowering again. The main flower head is twice as big as last year's one, and there is a second spray of buds about to open. Makes me happy to see it so happy.

7 O'Clock News

There's been lots going on in the world the last few days so I watched the local news tonight to learn more. They covered all the political shenanigans but had very little on the other stories I'm interested in. It's so much easier to read news online! (BTW RIP PSH)
