Since I have been left unsupervised all Summer, I've been trying to occupy my time wisely, and not fritter it away on Housewives or doomscrolling.
(Mission accomplished-ish.)
I am still really enjoying long reading sessions in the morning, and have almost made my way through the introduction of King Lear after reading the actual play twice. As for Villette...she is my before-bed reading, and I am taking her slowly and loving every page.
For the life of me, I just can't seem to regain the stitching speed and stamina I had in my younger days. I can get about a half hour completed before something hurts or distracts or goes awry and I have to do something else for a bit.
(Phooey.)
Rich returns one week from today, so I had better get out of lazy daisy Spinster mode and move into lazy daisy Too Old To Be A Girlfriend mode. Not much difference between the two other than what causes me to holler at the TeeVee.
I hope your very own Summer has been...whatever you wanted it to be. Are you like me in that Fall starts on September 1st?
In North Florida we have one day of fall weather in December, then it is back to a late summer of heat and humidity until winter arrives in January. Hate this weather here!
ReplyDelete"Fall" in SoCal usually means HOT weather and/or dry, hot Santa Ana winds...unlike the Falls of my childhood in Connecticut...more's the pity...but I wouldn't want it to snow in SoCal, so I guess I'm stuck with HOT fall weather..🥵
ReplyDeleteFunny, I said to someone an hour ago that my fall begins Sept 1, no matter what the calendar says or the weather is like. I was born on that date too, so that makes me right.
