Walks – Lady Book Dragon

Hello!

So what has everyone been up to outside of reading good books?

I will be honest and say work has been taking up a lot of my time but I have managed to do some other things as well.

Duolingo

My husband and myself have started learning Greek again. It has been so long since I last attempted it that I have forgotten everything so I have started from scratch. We are using Duolingo at the moment but I would like some other resources to help so any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Walking

We are really making an effort with our walking again. We have been doing the Lord of the Rings virtual challenges on the Conqueror Challenges and we have now completed 4 medals and are on the last one. However, the last medal is 282 miles which is going to take us a while but we will keep plodding along. If anybody would like to try the Conqueror challenges this code will give you 10% off. The walking has also meant some lovely views as well.

Etsy

I have been really busy with my Etsy recently which is wonderful but it has meant I have needed to upgrade my Cricut from a Joy to a Maker 3. This has meant spending some time getting used to a new machine and adapting my designs for the new machine. It has been so nice to make several things at once instead of one thing at a time. If you want to visit my Etsy shop here is the link.

Happy Reading

Hello!

This has been another good week of reading and other activities. So here is what I have been up to…

Walk and Pokemon Go playing

We have been going on our daily walks and saying hello to the sheep and I have been playing Pokemon Go.

Jigsaws

I finally finished the one jigsaw and I have started another jigsaw but this one is a mystery as it is a Sherlock Holmes jigsaw so you don’t see the picture and all the items in the jigsaw are attached to the mystery.

Ukulele

The Ukulele is going well and I have started working on Grade One. Hopefully exams will recommence at some point this year.

Baking

I had a go at a chocolate torte this week which is a new recipe for me, sadly it caught on the one side but I am slowly getting used to baking in the AGA. Going to try another new recipe next week.

Movie Night

We have done our best to recreate the cinema experience and have watched two films with popcorn and chocolates. Emma was a really good adaptation and we did enjoy a good laugh.

I’ve also done loads of reading!

So that is my week. I hope everyone has had a good week.
