📖 Randomly selected library book seems pretty good.

🌱 I thought I’d killed my seedlings but they have bounced right back after a drink.

👩🏻‍💻Got lots of work done at the library despite the presence of multiple annoying groups of loud people.

🕊️Appreciated the peace and quiet at home after that.

🍪Made ginger and oat biscuits. They turned out well; the recipe is a keeper.

🥚 The fridge leftovers concoction of fried veg, eggs and cheese wasn’t quite an omelette or a frittata but it was nice.

🃏Played a couple of fun rounds of Eternal Decks with a group who don’t usually do cooperative games.

🥛 Encountered an actual milk float out delivering on my way home. Late night and not early morning but the real thing, an old J reg, so 1971ish vehicle.

🏊🏻‍♀️ Now the refurbished leisure centre has reopened I’ve bought a year of membership and can go swimming (more or less) whenever I like again.

🥥 Bought myself some new coconut body moisturiser.

🚤 Selling our boat (we decided we don’t use it enough to justify having it) is depressing me but getting an offer on it was nice.

🌭Veggie sausages are great.

🚲 My bike keeps soldiering on and keeping me sane even though it really needs some TLC (and oil).
