Lockdown Diary....... Tuesday

Monday nights is Grayson Perry’s Artclub night on Channel 4 and we are obsessed with it.  Each episode there is a theme for the week. Last night the art was based on what you see out of your window.  Pretty pertinent during lockdown as it’s  something we are all doing.

We have the most fantastic views over a nature reserve and can see for miles over three counties.  But this view is from the  velux window in my  bathroom and is what I see when in the shower.  It’s actually the tree tops I see.  Sometimes I imagine I’m in a forest, it’s very peaceful apart from the sounds of the birds singing.

I’ve started a new book this morning.  An early morning read in bed with a cuppa is always a good start to the day. Especially with this view.  Prue Leith is a terrific writer of fiction, you can imagine yourself in the places she describes.  I’m glad I’ve picked up another of her books, it’s a good lockdown read.

There’s not a lot happening in this house today, except for a couple of work related phone calls, a chat with a neighbour who gave me this pretty vintage spoon as a thank you for getting them little treats over the past few weeks.  They haven’t been out for two months and still don’t know when they will be able to.

So apart from putting in a couple of loads of washing, deciding on salmon fillets with rice and vegetables for tea, having our usual walk round the block, there’s not a lot to report. I didn’t even do my Pilates practice.  I guess some days are just like that and we shouldn’t beat ourselves up about it.

I need to pull my finger out though and get a blog post ready for Wednesday’s regular looking around the Workdesks.  We have a theme tomorrow.  We are all going to blog about a project or projects we’ve not completed.  Well I’ve no end of them so that won’t be a problem.
