(This is a /now page, listing out the stuff that's going on with me at the moment. If you have your own site, you should make one too.)
What's happening?
๐ถ Currently in that
JanuaryFebruary lull where there's not much going on outside of work. It's warmed my heart to see snowdrops appearing in hedges and on verges over the past week - it won't be long until Spring is properly with us.๐ค Had a little bit of mysterious illness in the house last week. it knocked me out on Tuesday and affected my wife for a while on Wednesday. Passed soon enough, but that lost day really set me back at work.
๐ But thankfully work is going ok at the moment. There's still a lot of focus on a shuffling of roles and responsibilities after my company was purchased back in the middle of last year but, by the end of February, that should all be sorted. I'm keen to understand better what this will mean for me.
๐งโ๐งโ๐งโ๐ง Had my parents over this weekend. It's always nice to have more people than just the two of us rattling around in our little home, and nice to just spend time chatting to them too.
๐ถ Aside from having guests, we didn't do too much this weekend. A bit of a walk by the Thames and that's about it.
๐ Whizzed through Our Man In Havana which wasn't really what I wanted it to be. That always seems to be the way with Graham Greene though. My pal Dan recommended Tender Is The Flesh a while ago which I got through over the past week - a fun, if icky, dystopian short novel that reminded me structurally a lot of The Handmaid's Tale.
๐ถ I keep listening to classic Balearic dance tracks at the moment. This recent remix of Shapeshifter's Lola's Theme in particular is superb.
