Today was odd in that the work I was supposed to be doing didn't transpire, but I was quite motivated to get on with the work that I could be doing that had a later deadline, so I did. I also decided I'd go and work in a library for a change of scenery, which was good, although it was a bit noisy (what are libraries like these days - bloody people on phones and computer games without headphones, and... all this in what's supposed to be the study area!) and so didn't last long. So I look myself and did some more work in an independent cafe, and then I wandered back to the car via a secondhand bookshop, where I might have found three items of local history interest that might have ended up here with me... Which sounds a bit like I shoplifted them, but obviously I didn't. *g*

Working without a deadline was actually quite stress-free, so that was a happy. *g*

Oh, and landlady nipped in to give me some spare roses she had left over after putting hers in a vase! So I have half a dozen rather lovely deep pink roses. *g*

And Melissa Scott posted another Astreiant story to her Patreon, and I love it death. Ongoing Nico and Philip - yeay! It always makes me happy to get those emails. *vbg*

One last happy - just in time for my new hobby, someone posted this good news to a metal detecting fb (it's old, but still) - Antidepressant Microbes in Soil. So better not to bother with the gloves after all... I wonder if this helps to explain why most children are so much happier than most grown-ups - they're far more likely to be grubbing around in the dirt! *g*

Have a pic of today's wanderings.

How're you doing? *g*

It wasn't a bad day, for lots of reasons... *g* And thank you! The frame just shouted out that it needed photographing - sort of a poser of a view, I thought... *vbg*
