It's been a strangely long week

rosa_heartlilyThis time last year I was watching two episodes of Traitors with the boys, celebrating the closure of two projects, waiting for a business-led project to start, and trying to get my monasticism-based prayer group off the ground.
Today I wrote the summary paragraph for the fourth book in my 'trilogy' - it's getting more like H2G2 all the time :D I also listed some more secondary characters who will be very important to the whole story. Time to get my name-creation hat on again!
I'd had an email telling me the latest parcel from Peace with the Wild would arrive this morning, so I sat downstairs to wait for it. When it didn't arrive I checked my emails again - now it was saying between 2-3pm *sigh*
I came back upstairs for one of the external meetings - it really feels like I'm part of the group, now. One of the other people works for one of the NHS Trusts and always has a different background - their trust encourages staff to submit photos of their local area and they're used as their corporate background.
After dinner, the parcel arrived. Not much this time but it helps with my efforts to be eco-friendly :)
Then I came back upstairs to work through a chapter of the Impact Engine System book whilst watching Dave climb Mount Gagazet with Rob ranting at him :D He managed very well, though, and even did a bit of grinding. He saved at the top of the mountain. We know what comes next... Good luck, Dave! This week's Friday Feature was about how NPCs might react to the behaviour of PCs :D
This evening we watched the final of The Traitors. We agreed the creators of the programme are very clever in the twists and turns they create for the players.
Now I'm watching the final episode of this series of A House Through Time. It's fascinating to see something of what was happening in Germany at the end of WW II. I've only really considered it from the pov of Britain - naturally enough, I suppose.
