- getting my hair cut at a hairdresser's for the first time ever
- working on an essay comparing the Cambridge maths BA with the Greenwich (a 'new' university) maths BSc
- sewing a waistcoat
- working on the jumper I'm knitting (tubey)
- missing blogging
- staying out of the way of the builders
we're having our kitchen/bathroom redone. This is week 4. The novelty has worn off and working at home kind of sucks when you can't get to the loo or use the kitchen at all. - making the Pioneer woman's iced coffee which is super-easy and really nice
- trying to shop ethically / better
spork made in Sweden rather than cutlery made in China. Wellie-ankle-boots made of natural rubber rather than plastics. Fairly traded dress from Nepal. Hat made of hemp. Trying not to buy more than I need - all of the preceding things bought for soul survivor next week. Trying not to shop gets much harder when you also want to get out of the house. And then kind of easier-but-more-angsty when you keep going "but where does this come from? Where was this made? Who am I supporting if I buy this?" - looking forward to Soul Survivor B next week!
- missing Church :( it will be really good to be back on Sunday (have missed 2 weeks in a row due to a wedding 2 weeks ago and folk-dance-performing last Sunday)
- spending a lot of time at the library
- reading lots of books. Probably on a rate of 1 a day at the moment.
and with that, I should head off to the library and work on this essay.
