Again, a relatively short list (for me – in some years I’ve got up over 150 books), but for some reason I just didn’t feel as inspired to read this year – probably because I was so busy with everything else. One big part of the drop in numbers is because I mostly stopped listening…
Projects completed in 2020. I thought I’d had a pretty uncreative year, what with lockdown depression and everything, but although it was mostly small projects, I did actually manage to get quite a few things finished. January February March March was busy, and then it got weird. So nothing really finished, but I did do…
Well, that whole return to blogging didn’t last long last year, did it? And to be honest, this one probably won’t either. It’s mostly because vlogging has taken over a lot of the role blogging used to play for me, but also just that usual loop of it’s been so long since I blogged anything,…
A lot fewer than in previous years. Partly a reflection of how busy the year was, but also just that I was spending more of my down time on other things (like YouTube and Netflix) instead of reading. Total = 85 books January (7) Margot & Me by Juno Dawson Of Orcas and Men by…
And now, just to repeat most of what was in the previous post, here’s my annual list of what I made last year: January Much too busy to be creative! February March April May Didn’t finish any projects, but I started a few new ones… (this could have something to do with why I have…
(Very late (blame the Flickr debacle) and I know I’m way behind on blog posts (and vlogs), but I’ll get there eventually – life has been busy!) Projects completed in 2018: January I made a lot of progress on projects, but didn’t actually finish any of them. February Lego Quilt March Birds in Flight quilt…
And now, after all those lists, an actual post: fter a couple of days of hiding away from the world, I was feeling ready for human contact again, so a couple of invitations yesterday came just at the right moment. First was to join Harvestbird for cake and afternoon tea in civilisation, before she heads…
I’ve been doing the year in first lines thing for a few years now – I think it was a post on Wondermark that gave me the idea? Anyway, the idea is to summarise the year through the first sentence of the first post of each month. As always, I’m cheating slightly by sometimes including…
I started a new list this year, of the craft projects I’d completed. It was kind of an attempt to motivate myself to actually finish things, instead of always starting new projects then leaving them half-finished when some new shiny caught my eye, but also just because (like my reading list) it’s interesting to see…
Another year, another list of books. Quite a short list, really, considering I wasn’t studying this year, but I think somewhere over the last few years I’ve lost the reading habit slightly. (And yes, I’m aware that for a lot of people, reading 106 books in a year (even given my rather broad definition of…
