Time // Sunday evening, 19:08
Place // The usual desk
Eating // Not much right now; I had a veggie pie earlier and will be having pulled pork for dinner.
Drinking // Copious amounts of tea to keep myself alert enough to get some work done
Reading // I’m currently in the middle of two books, the first half of A Dance with Dragons by George R.R. Martin and One Night in Winter by Simon Sebag Montefiore. The first is my commuting book on my Kindle. I’ve recently been tackling longer reads on the commute because I know I’ll make consistent progress while sitting on the train, although it took me a really long time to get into ADwD given how much I remember loving the previous books in the series. As for the latter, I’m about 150 pages in and completely hooked. I really want to know what’s going to happen to these arrested children in Stalinist Russia, and I hope it isn’t the worst.
Watching // We are watching too many shows right now thanks to our recent sign up to Netflix and its wealth of treasures. We discovered Sherlock quite recently and I have very happily jumped on the Benedict Cumberbatch bandwagon. We have just the last episode of season 3 left so please no spoilers. We also just recently started continuing with Breaking Bad and will then move on to House of Cards. When we don’t have much time, we’re re-watching Red Dwarf.
Cooking // I’ve still not been getting on as well as I should have been with cooking this year. Maybe now that it’s lightening up in the evenings my motivation will come back. I’m still pinning recipes away so the desire to make delicious food hasn’t diminished, at least.
Learning // Not much to be honest. I’m considering investing in my first DSLR and getting better at photography. I did a bit of crafting towards the start of the year and re-taught myself how to knit, but I haven’t kept it up.
Gaming // In my new quest to get used to first-person shooters, I am playing the first Halo game on my Xbox. I can’t say I’m in love with it, but I must admit it’s helpful after a stressed day at work.
Loving/Hating // I love how warm it was today and the fact that daffodils are popping up! I can’t wait for summer; my husband says I’m wishing my life away, but I am so tired of being cold.
Mostly hating that it’s not really spring despite one lovely day. It’ll be cold again tomorrow.
Anticipating // Summer; visiting my parents in May; planning this year’s holiday (still not decided).

yay, you have daffodils too now

I’m loving the warm weather too. We bought a DSLR a few years ago and I never have learned to use it well. When I take it with me I never see anything to take pictures of; when I leave it at home I see all kinds of things to photograph.

Still snow here
where we are, but glad you’re getting spring there.
We were late arrivals to Sherlock too and just watched Episode 3 of Season 3. Get ready to be amazed, although out of this season, I think I liked two the best for the humor. Love Red Dwarf. Have you seen the original House of Cards? It was pretty good. We have yet to see the American version, but we’re looking forward to it…when we get there. Tonight’s movie: Thor: The Dark World.

I love my DSLR. We drive around just to take pictures sometimes! I used to feel like I had nothing to take pictures of because I didn’t have kids, but I joined Instagram and it has given me inspiration. Just because I see something everyday doesn’t mean that other people do. It sort of kick-started me to see things differently and appreciate things I took for granted before!

I like the format, it plays to my OCD/organised tendencies. I am also so pleased to finally see the sun, the daffodils and new for us here crocuses are blooming too.

Flowers!! We still have quite a bit of snow. Hope you find a DSLR you love. I’m going the opposite direction and am thinking of going smaller. I’m getting sick of dragging heavy stuff around with me.
