I haven’t had a lot of screen time recently. This is what I’ve been doing while not staring at a computer screen:
Collecting train tickets and using them as bookmarks.
Eating pizza while watching my Dad attempt to play jump rope with an extension cord. The morphine is working!
Meditating/crying while in a church.
Reading Naked on the train, while wearing clothes.
Drinking cider at The Scottish Real Ale Festival. I’m such a rebel.
Getting a free copy of Rebecca from Sarge and World Book Night.
Having lunch with some of the bridal crew/maids of awesome.
Listening to Low while writing on envelopes until two whole pens are out of ink. Mostly it’s this one on repeat:
Possibly the best cover ever. John Denver makes me cry, but this one makes me infinitely happy.

Sounds like you have been doing some awesome things. We need to get your dad a jump rope or as they say it in Britian a skipping rope. I am sure that was a fond memory.
It was indeed a funny moment. Have a good day, Cynthia!
Good for you, LKD. This is all time well spent. 😀
Stressing about life, money & a job. Cooking new exciting vegetarian foodstuffs. Spending time with a special someone I never expected to have in my life again. Cuddling with various 4 legged furry creatures (2 cats at home, 2 dogs at my friend’s place). And of course missing a certain bride to be something fierce.
I’m so glad the pain meds are working! I’ve been on the hunt for some book series I’d like to buy second-hand, and I’ve been writing.
I, too, am glad the medication is working. Any time a father jumps “rope” is a happy time, I think. I’ve been working till my hands have blistered – through thick leather gloves – digging out and building a stone patio. To bed for me 🙂 Good luck envelope-writing!
