Loving time off

I've been on leave this week and it's been really nice.
The husband and I have been for a walk most days, stopping off at the café in the Metropolitan (RC) Cathedral for coffee and food. It's been good to just spend time together, chatting about stuff that isn't that important but some of it is. We were talking about how we met, last night, and how different life would be if we hadn't turned that corner at the same time, or if we'd just kept walking and not spoken. Or if we'd let our initial dislike of each other (yes, we were THOSE people!) continue.
I've also managed to find time for a cleaning job every day (yesterday was the windows - hate doing the windows). Rosa is a domestic goddess.
And I've sunk a sizeable chunk of time (I think it's about 14 hours total) into Uncharted 4. I'm mostly enjoying it - but more the story side than the gameplay. But the learning curve hasn't been so great that I haven't motored through it, so there's that. Oh, the stats page also informs me that I've spent over 2 hours standing still :D
AND I've also been battling with Lulu.com's self-publishing wizard. Finally got the text file to behave, and ran into difficulties with the cover art. I will have a final go, tomorrow.
Now, I have the weekend to finish U4, a meeting on Monday and then I will give myself over to the wonder and delight of FF8R on Tuesday. So, excited!!!
