A good walk is always nice. Need to go on more nostalgic routes. I’m currently working from home so that leaves the weekend - the only days I look forward to. I wish I got out more during the first lockdown while on furlough. Probably would have helped my mood.

I’d not been back in close on 40 years

I recently started walking each day around where I live, often walking in the road to avoid people.

Same here with some of the local streets, drive past, but never go down them. Some of the parks etc seemed so small, but seemed huge as a kid!

Let’s do my usual bullet points to celebrate a good day and what’s cheered me up!
- a day off
- finding out my OH is now off for a week from tomorrow
- wearing this beauty for a couple of hours
- oh, and a butt plug (that appears to be discontinued
) that I wore to the shop - I got lots of housework done
- and completed/booked/organised things I’ve been putting off for a while

Noticing a library pocket in the back of my book and discovering it spent time on the shelves of one of the oldest libraries in New York. It’s amazing to think I now share a connection with this twee little building so many miles across the ocean.

I got a book that was difficult to get in this country a fair few years ago, from a second hand book shop in Halifax, Nova Scotia! I kept the postmarked stamp as a bookmark!

Thats so cool! What is the book about? I love to read and can’t help but buy more whenever we go into town.
2021 will be the second year that I try to pay karma forward as often as I can. Little things, sometimes just make me feel so good.

It was Masked Rider by Neil Peart the drummer/lyricist of Rush, about cycling through Africa, it was very interesting! Nowadays it’s easily available through certain famour sites!
Cool! Is that something you want to do? Are you a cyclist? This probable sounds super weird, but I have this strange compulsion to go to see K2. No way NEAR climbing it. It would be hard enough to even get to base camp. Seeing the shadow across to the horizon, shading China. Insane.
Everest does not appeal to me in any way, just K2. I’ve been reading quite a few accounts of all the attempts.

No, he was my hero and i followed everything he did, from music, lyrics and the travelogue books he wrote.
I realised the other day that I don’t consider the rejigged forum new and unfamiliar anymore. Always a blessing when something different becomes just normal.

Watching an old episode of Minder, a bloke had the worst syrup ever, had me in stitches.

Being wrong occasionally
It amuses me what a dumbass I can be sometimes, like earlier in the lounge.
Being a tester at work, everyone expects me to be right all the time but I lost the plot at work in the week too. I found it great that the developers had chance ‘to get their own back’, through friendly natured banter, mostly led by me. It is good to be able to laugh at ourselves sometimes.
Remember people: Nobody is perfect so don’t feel like you have to be all the time.

I never take myself too seriously, especially at work, nobody is perfect! I was presented with a gift card by the management team last year, and they praised my “dry sense of humour”

I made my first sale on Etsy and it really cheered me up. Even though it was a friend it still made me feel like my craftiness is useful.
