{Musing} on Solstice, nature, connections and society.

{Reading} I can’t decide! I finished Conquest and really enjoyed it, can’t decide whether to go for more SF (have got Ghost Brigades on Kindle) or start on the 642 pages of historical fiction that landed today. Decisions, decisions. Suggestions welcome. (Wish I’d remembered to lay my hands on Dark is rising series for the read along. )

{watching} the odd life of Timothy Green. Which was odd. But pleasant. The oddest thing about it was that Small chose it and seemed to enjoy it. A film about relationships, parenting, and childhood. But there you go.

{Auditing} Christmas and finding it slightly wanting. Hmph. Not sure what to do about it either.

{Decluttering} while hunting down a well hidden present. One bag out to charity today, another to go tomorrow. There has to be a way to make this easier.

{Snapshots} Big went to kentwell with friends today, I think she had fun but is now contemplating Victorian times. Small has mainly avoided with this week but did an excellent minecraft review. Smallest is recovering from a nasty bug that has wiped her out but very much enjoyed build a bear yesterday while Tigerboy adores his first bear. even if it’s a snowman.
