The unexpected benefit of re-employment (and an office in town) is that my use of the library has exponentially increased 📚🐛
Finished reading: An Unkindness of Ghosts by Rivers Solomon 📚
I enjoyed this and as a debut novel goes it’s written well. I’m certainly keen to explore what the author did next.
Poppy and I had breakfast in the park this morning to make the most of a rare glimpse of the sun.
Jettisoning networking in favor of kinworking means taking a more ecological approach, one oriented towards nurturing the soil, planting seeds, providing water and sunlight—and then accepting that you have no control over what grows.

Finished reading: Pageboy by Elliot Page 📚
It’s important we hear trans people tell their stories and this felt like a necessary read. Although, I did find the jumping around through time a challenge to the reading experience.
Submarine, 2010
One of those films I chose to watch because it was leaving Netflix. I don’t know what I make of it really.
Senna, 2010 - ★★★★
It’s been a while since I’ve watched a good documentary and this didn’t disappoint. Izzy’s pick for film night and it kept both of us non-F1 fans engaged and informed.

Got my pal Poppy staying for the next five days 🥰
Shifting feelings on blogging
I forgot that one of the things I love most about Wimbledon is Heather Watson’s mum 😁🎾
Licorice Pizza, 2021
Gave up on the hour mark, just after Sean Penn’s character is introduced. Sometimes I don’t have the patience for films where I can’t connect with at least one character.

Finished reading: Sisters by Daisy Johnson 📚
Unsettling. Daisy Johnson creates such atmospheric worlds. Now I want to re-read Everything Under.
I sacked off work this afternoon to finish this print project. A trial of using Ternes Burton pins for registration ahead of another multi-block project on the horizon.
Doing the weekly meal planning. Send me some inspiration please 🥙🥗🍝
My wife is going away for a week so just been to see her off at the station during my lunch break. She was running late so I asked if she needed anything for the journey (thinking coffee/sandwich etc). The reply: a new pair of reading glasses 😂 Is this what it means to be middle age?
Finished reading: How to Kill Your Family by Bella Mackie 📚
I finally went back and finished this. It was ok, an interesting idea just a bit one note in delivery and faded away towards the end.
