I Really Should Stop Doing That!!
Tuesday, June 17th, 2025 11:01 amI keep promising that I will “catch up tomorrow” … then tomorrow disappears without a chance of spare moments! Sorry
I am working every afternoon and evening, and eat before I go to work, so my mornings seem quite short.
Sadly, shopping and housework always seem to be there.
So, no real excuses, other than life!
I met up with Tim and Claire for brunch on Saturday – their treat. I had looked after their garden/bird-feeders while they were away, so I walked to the city to have food … and hear about their trip. They had a lovely time. They went to Madrid, a city that I have yet to visit. They were really positive about it.
Other than those few hours I don’t really have any excuses for not being around.
I don’t want to lose touch with you all, but at the moment my LJ life might be a bit intermittent, so forgive me for that. I will do my best to keep up with you all, but please do let me know if you have any excitement in your lives.
It doesn’t help that even though I work with computers, LJ is one of the programmes blocked by their virus & SPAM filters.
Still … let’s keep up to date with the questions, so that if I can get myself more organised then I won’t be too far behind …
11. Do you wear a watch?
Yes, always.
12. Do you have some table items you only bring out when you entertain guests for dinner?
Yes – I have a lot of stuff that I love using, but as it’s only me at home I don’t set the table with different things on a daily basis
13. Do you own a corkscrew?
Of course!
14. When was the last time you sorted through the clothes in your wardrobe/closet? Are there items you really should get rid of?
I am not someone who buys new clothes, just to buy clothes, or follow fashion. So I throw out clothes when they are getting worn out, or if they are stretchy if they have stretched too big for me.
15. It’s Nature Photography Day – have you recently taken a photo of anything from nature?
Last photos I took were attempting some close-up photography of flowers.
16. Do you own a travel adapter socket, a travel hair dryer or a portable mini iron?
Of course – I travel abroad, so have the adaptors as needed.
Never ever use a hairdresser, and don’t have a mini-iron. If something is crushable I don’t tend to pack it!
17. Have you ever had a massage?
Sports massage, yes.
Any other, no.
Right, I must get on. It’s my month to find prompts for photo_scavenger so must get that posted.
I will try and keep up … I really will
