Thursday - a rather dramatic (and slightly apocalyptic, if you ask me *g*) sunrise (well, morning *g*) and late summer thistles.

And then a rather blissful evening, all balmy air and reading a good book on my lovely garden bench...

And then today - the deliciousness of rain from a warm sky, and angel clouds, and lovely buffeting wind.

It's been a funny few days, mind - Job 1, and then in the midst of thinking about the upcoming Job 2.5, a surprise recurrence of Job 2, so that I wasn't entirely sure what was going on, but it got sorted in the end. Had a haircut, and am all short again, though I'd half thought I wouldn't be. Excellent books, the kind that make you feel like you're in the wrong world. Chat for a new volunteer gig, though it'll take ages to kick off. Landlord reckons he's going to fix my shed roof, which would be fab, and help keep me here a bit longer, odd as that might sound...

And the best thing - it's Friday night. Friday night, and I have books, and there's a new Fleabag to watch, and I still have the last Game of Thrones from series five too - maybe tomorrow. And there is apparently going to be gorgeous wrack and storm (and I have moved Tall Sunflower down to be beside Lower Sunnflowers, just in case). Come wind... *g*

Oh - and I had a Reading Idea this morning. Come term time, I'm going to go back mumblety-mumble years, and re-read the books we read in English, way back in high school, cos I do still have them, and I don't think I've read them since. And I really don't think it's a school booklist the like of which has been seen here for many years... *g*

How're you do-in'...? *g*

It was rather nice sitting outside the other night! Since then it's become rather more damp... *g* And thank you!

Yeah, I have to wait until the dvds come down in price before I can justify them, so it'll be a wee while before I get to catch up with season six. *sighs sadly* I almost wasn't going to carry on after season three, actually, but I'm quite glad I came back to it. *g*

I know of a couple of people who quit watching, just sort of faded away around that time. I can't remember if the show got bogged down or not. There are an awfully lot of characters whose story has to be told. I'm certainly loving it.
