Listy McListyface

 Lists, lists, lists. I've never been very good at keeping up to date lists and this year is even worse than usual. I'm struggling with typing (long nails, no clippers) and I can't spell any more. The things I didn't have to think about I currently am and it's frustrating.

Add to this I'm being pretty slow at the moment and I feel like I'm holding myself back. I try explaining it to those close to me who respond "it's okay to be slow, nobody expects it of you" which wasn't what I was saying at all. So let's try saying it's like climbing a tree but the bark is really slippy. 

And very, very slooooowwwwww.

Still here though....

TV Critic (3)

Yep, I'm getting through these programmes fairly quickly I think. Although today's, which is 'Four in a Bed' is on fairly continually during the day and early evening - so this one isn't as challenging when talking about the programme. Though actually, what I've noticed instead is that the programme follows a fairly similar journey each week.  Firstly, let's describe 'Four in a Bed' - there are four families, they all own a B&B style place and they're all being judged on how clean their B&B is. Each family visits each B&B and judges it, checks the room for dust and overall cleanliness and then at the end of their stay they grade everything out of ten.  There are all sorts of categories - whether their hosts were welcoming, did they sleep well?, how clean it is and then the BIG question at the end, would they stay there again. Then when the anonymous grading has been done the hosts read through it all - and work out who has scored thei...

The Love Challenge (2)

Another clause that I've completed for The Love Challenge, but this one isn't going public until the goods have been delivered - but covers the clause "Make someone feel loved with a random act of kindness" - now, I guess this could be interpreted many ways, but I've chosen to make it a very simple one - I've bought some Lady Bakewell Park cookies for Shaun and he'll get them on valentine's day. Given we don't celebrate the day in question this is going to catch him off guard, he'll probably feel bad and I'll almost definitely insist we have pizza for tea to make up for it. But it is a random act of kindness and they're quite cute looking too.  I just have to try not to eat them beforehand.  I mean, LOOK! they're ace. I hope husband shares them.... 

TV Critic

Signed off work for a fairly long time, I have more than enough time to watch tv right now. This makes the TV Critic badge quite an easy one to achieve - I have been off work for over three months now which means I know which channels to switch to when I need a certain daytime tv fix.  Clause 1 is to choose five different tv shows to watch over a four week period. They need to be different genres as well - and fortunately we've had a bit of a Netflix/Disney+/Amazon/BBC style mix of programmes of late. So my five different tv shows are.... 1. Wednesday 2. Happy Valley 3. Extraordinary 4. Four in a Bed 5. Harry & Meghan  Ted Lasso I think that's a good spread of the shows I've been watching.  Now I need to write a review... to keep this challenge going I will only review the shows we've finished - though Four in a Bed is week to week so is the exception.  Wednesday. This is the story of Wednesday Addams and her starting Nevermore Academy, the place her parents Mort...
