Really not much to report, other than I love my new phone!  My old one (which was my grandson's old one, so is now THIRD hand) has gone to the husband, who is very bemused as to how it's actually going to change his life.  However, it will allow me to contact him more easily - I think.  I have a very cute sticker in the shape of a moogle but made up of lots of FF symbols and objects (Buster Sword, Lionheart, a moomba and a behemoth, to name a few).  I'm waiting for a clear protective cover to arrive before I apply it, though.

Our new rugs are down and look very pretty and the new curtains have arrived - but not the poles!  I was going to fit them today but now it'll have to wait for next weekend.

Um...  Work was OK.  Got some stuff sent out for various meetings.  It was busy but also uneventful, somehow...?

I am in the process of applying for the post of Committee Secretary for Homes England, which pays £30-50k.  *looks blank*  I don't know what a committee secretary has to do to earn £30k but I'm willing to find out!

I've resurrected my blog and committed to a) updating it weekly, b) finishing 70x700 this year, and c) publishing the e-version of Mannerley.

Oh, and The Good Place and Titans have returned to much rejoicing.

Otherwise, looking forward to a quiet weekend!  With lots of cards :D

 The ending of Once Upon A Time was deeply satisfying and I'm glad I stuck it out to the end. Now I just need J to finish watching it (he's currently on a rerun of Buffy!), so I can talk to him about it.

I've started watching Anne with an E, which (so far) is very close to the book. The girl playing Anne is so like her in looks and energy levels.

I Am Setsuna continues to be cute. I was listening to the OST in work yesterday and the titles of some of the pieces make me think the ending is not going to be all rainbows and unicorns. Which would be interesting for a JRPG, and might also prove satisfying. I'm currently exploring the world for locked chests and doing a bit of levelling before heading for the final dungeon. Due to the complete lack of maps in the game (seriously? what game doesn't have maps?!), my gaming colleague printed a world map for me off the internet. So many places to go! 

I've completed the main edit of Mannerley and am currently working my way through the dialogue. I want my three main characters to each have a distinct 'voice' and Robert's verbosity needs reigning in a bit. If I have time/energy after those four, I'll take a look at the others.

Yesterday was our anniversary and the son treated us to a meal at his favourite pub. The food and atmosphere were great but my energy levels weren't. End of the day slump combined with day three of being with both husband and son, with little chance to 'decompress' in between, meant I could actually have done without it. And we're planning to go out today, too (just me and husband) but whether for the day or just an evening meal, we still aren't sure.

Tomorrow, I game...
