On Saturday, I took part in A Photo an Hour with Is That You, Darling? again.It took me a few days to get round to uploading the photos, which is why you’re only getting the post now. (But on our new computer, which I am in awe at the speed of! You’d understand if you saw what I’d been dealing with until now…)
9 a.m. I wasn’t actually planning on getting up for another hour, but bloody construction workers outside the window ruined my lie in!
10 a.m. Starting a new cross stitch image for a Christmas card
11 a.m. Out of the shower – time to get dressed
12 noon. Doing a few dishes before making lunch
1 p.m. A quick trip to the local supermarket
2 p.m. Time for a cuppa, seeing as my morning one went cold before I could finish it!
3 p.m. More cross stitch – nearly finished this one!
4 p.m. Wondering what to make for tea later. Please ignore the state of my fridge!
5 p.m. Time to start hacking up a pumpkin (it always takes me forever!)
6 p.m. Cooking
7 p.m. Wine? Don’t mind if I do!
8 p.m. Watching the first Hobbit film. (I still can’t believe they stretched out that tiny book to make three films!)
9 p.m. Still watching the film, so here’s a selfie on the sofa!
10 p.m. Watching Jan get our new computer set up.
11 p.m. In bed with a book. And that’s your last photo… I turned the light out just after midnight but didn’t take another photo. I wish I had now though because this has ruined my symmetry 😉
Chopping up pumpkin DOES take forever. And it makes the skin peel on your fingers 😦
I usually end up with orange fingers! It looks like I’ve been a 40-a-day smoker for yeeeeears.
I’m impressed by the photo of Jan setting the computer up. When I got my new computer, I opened the box, took the laptop out, attached the power lead and switched it on!
He wanted to keep the same case, so he ordered all the bits then assembled them in the old case. This is what happens when you live with a computer scientist!
I suppose that makes sense – but seems like such a lot of hard work to me!
I love the sound of this , I’ll need to give it a try. And you’re right, pumpkin is a bit of a pain to peel, it seems to take forever!x
It really does! And they’re totally the wrong shape for the peeler.
I still have not watched any of the Hobbit movies. I guess I should!
We’re only getting round to it now because someone lent them to us.
My symmetry has been ruined too! I always try and take an even number of photos, but sometimes I get distracted/confused and get it wrong!
Thanks for joining in!
I love creeping people’s days with this photo-an-hour challenge. It also takes me an absolute eternity to prep a pumpkin!! Worth it though 😀
I agree with you on the Hobbit thing! That was such a tiny book… the films are nothing like it. Hubby’s best friend and I have been trying to get hubby to read the book so he knows what we mean!
Yeah, we got about 15 minutes into the film before I was like “aaah, now this bit I remember from the book!”
I enjoyed this. Fantasy movies aren’t really my thing, but I enjoyed The Hobbit (coming from a girl who has never seen Lord of the Rings; tried to watch it three different times; fell asleep each time).
