Taking Stock: January 2018

Baking & Cooking:

No baking this month.

Making:

I made a window blind for the front door window.

Plenty of tea has been drank this month, the Earl Grey is still my favourite. Hot chocolate with marshmallows came in second because of the cold weather.

Listening:

Playing:
My PC is poorly so nothing really to report here. I hopefully won't suffer from Sims, Rimworld and Minecraft withdrawal.

I got in some 'No Man's Sky' to help stave the withdrawal, loving the new update for it.
I have also been playing the mobile game EDEN on, well my phone. It's a cute little village builder for the echo worrier inside.


Last minute The Sims 4 Cats and Dogs due to computer being fixed.

Trawling:

Trawling the internet (YouTube, Pintrest & so on) for DIY's projects for the new year.

Writing:
I have been dipping in here and there, nothing too strenuous at the moment.
Working on E14 posts.
Starting a hand written diary, my blog posts are fine but I cannot let loose some of the deeper things I need to talk about.

Wanting:

Too many things but I need to be patient.
Getting the PC fixed.

Looking:
Looking forwards to going to Edinburgh in August for the Fringe Festival.  

Deciding:

What my next home project will be, I have a few in mind but I'm not sure which one to start.

Wishing:

For the spring to come.

Enjoying:

Blake's Birthday! We visited London for the day and went to the Natural History Museum plus Forbidden Planet!

The Photo A Day Challenge for January, it has kept me busy through the month dull. Check out my Instagram!

Waiting:

For my poorly PC to be either fixed or for us to leave it to rest and buy a new one.

Liking:

The Instagram Photo A Day Challenge for January 2018.
Seanan McGuire's 'Indexing' series on audiobook.
Having my fixed PC back in working order.
Sarah Lyons Fleming's 'Mordacious' (The City Series #1). 

Not Liking:

The train delays, Southeastern Rail changed the timings for the new year and my train hasn't left on time since I had returned to work.
Feeling the January Blues big time, I dislike this side of winter.
