Sunbathing on the roof and knew I was being watched!

Video description. My view from the lounger of a pigeon who watched me for over 30 minutes. The sky is bright blue with a dusting of fluffy clouds.

I think most of us have earnt this patch for our blankets and jackets!
It’s nice that everything is opening back up but I’m still a bit cautious and staying home a lot.
Time to sort out my sleep cycle and try and fall asleep before 1am!! Anyone else?!

Video description. I found this fab patch by @finestimaginary that says The Great Indoors, 2020. In the video I am seeing it on my cargo jacket. I’ve seen it the cheats way and def wouldn’t earn sewing badge doing it!!

Lizzie. 8 weeks. Eats grass.

I’ve been calling my Nana every week in lockdown. Before she was tech savvy with whatsapp, but we never did video calls because she didn’t have much data.
Data is expensive in Australia. 💰
Being isolated changed this.
Nana has a data package, upgraded phone and iPad, and access to Netflix!
She’s currently binging The Crown. Just like we all binged when we first got an account. 😂😂😂
Today we talked about live photos and how it’s possible to turn them into video.
She also told me how she had learnt to hit the space bar twice to get a full stop!

Image description. This is a live photo of Lizzie that I saved to a video. She is a tiny puppy laying on bright green grass and she is chewing it. Lizzie was so tiny when my parents first got her, she would often race around and then flop like this when her energy ran out!

To make a video from a live photo on your iPhone. Open the photo. Click the box with the arrow icon in the bottom left hand corner. Scroll through the options and find ‘save as video’.

Yesterday I was speaking to a friend who was furloughed and what they are doing.
He told me they had repainted nearly all of the house they had just moved into before lockdown. Then he said something that made me pause. He said he hadn’t taken any down time whilst being furloughed because he felt guilty when he looked around at the house and everything that needed doing.
I asked him if he wasn’t home and at ‘normal work’ how long all of that would have taken him. He laughed and said probably a year.
We agreed that he and his partner were actually ahead and not behind!
Today he has sent me a pic of them in the garden enjoying the sunshine!
A great example of reframing that I wanted to share. It’s easy to get stuck in the shoulds and not see the positives. It takes practice to turn it around and lockdown def adds a new challenge to it!

Image description. I’ve gotten really bored with my food options so I got @mindfulchefuk box this week. This is a lamb burger with baby potatoes and salad. Best bit was the mint sauce I made. Not normally a fan of tomato’s but have them a whirl! The picture is of my food plates up just like the fancy recipe card! 😂😂
