Iceland shop arrived, they had everything I'd ordered apart from a tube of hand cream, but got a small tub here so not a problem
Reading group this afternoon which was a bit different, instead of a short story or extract from a book and a poem, today we had 3 poems, we enjoyed 2 of then, couldn't make any sense of the third, but it made a change and we enjoyed discussing them 😊❤️🌈SSAW
Glad you just about got all of your shopping Jenny. Your group sounds like it went well.
I dealt with the washing this morning, did 2 15 minute Joe Wicks workouts and then stretches and weights then made some raw bars.

I surfed the net , watched a movie “Quadrophenia” about Mods and Rockers back in the 60s(I was a Mod) and did some local history reading
Sounds like a good day Don👍🌈
It was..... tried chatting to a friend in the USA, but there was no response, but there is a 5 hours difference
That's a shame you didn't get to talk to your friend, a 5 hour time difference is a fair bit, maybe try again tomorrow afternoon. Glad it was a good day though👍😊🌹
I did a zoom call this morning to try to keep our shared reading group in touch as our leader has to do some online teaching for a few weeks. I was quite chuffed with myself as I chose a Wordsworthoem about Snowdrops and for the first time managed to share the screen with them.
This afternoon I really deep cleaned the kitchen but am regretting it now as it has started my osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia up so unfortunately it will be an early night for me. X
Well done on leading your reading group and sharing screen, the 3 poems we had were:A Writer's Life by Derek Mahon
The Radiant Dark by George Eliot
After The Winter by Claude McKay
I am unfamiliar with the first poem and unfortunately couldn't seem to bring it up on thr web. We are always on the lookout for new poems. My husband brought a poetry book for Xmas which consists of a poem for every night of the year and the one I picked was for today. Not that I have any snowdrops out yet.x
Early walk, future learn, washing, made a roast dinner, watched charlie and the chocolate factory and did some Duolingo Scots Gaelic.
The greatest excitement here all day Jennymary was this evening when, unfortunately the block's fire alarm sounded and we all had to traipse out into the wind and rain. Not quite so quick an evacuation these days either. Mask, (check), sanitiser (check). You know the drill. The fire brigade arrived in their usual speedy style and by then there was a strong smell of smoke, which seems to have been coming from the lift shaft. So no lift for the next few days until it's safety checked, and staying home will begin to be a really attractive proposition as it's such a bore to climb all those steps!
Played battleships via Zoom tonight
